] mozCC is an extension for Mozilla-based browsers, ] including Mozilla Firebird, Mozilla and Netscape, which ] provides a convenient way to examine Creative Commons ] licenses embedded in web pages. It's at least twice as ] good as View Source. ] ] When license RDF is detected, mozCC does two things. ] First, it scans for license information pertaining to ] the current web page and places relevant icons on the ] status bar. Second, it enables a button on the toolbar ] which allows you to explore the parsed licensing ] metadata. Browsers that understand content licensing are on the way. This type of licensing is great, but I fear the day my browser tells me I can't copy text from a page because I'm not permitted by its license. I have a feeling it will be Microsoft that brings me that nightmare. |
