Creative Commons, CC, has a brilliant idea to say the least. With all the copy right infringements these days users of the internet need to be VERY cautious on what they "use" or "borrow" for their own personal use to enhance their website, blog, etc.
Although I never have run into this issue, I know many others have. Especially those who are regular users of the internet for professional reasons like a teacher, a painter, etc.
Now since I have been learning all these new tools the web has to offer for free, I'm beginning to realize I've used photos which someone has taken, but have not been restricted for public use, especially pictures on Google. Google by the way has utilized CC licenses for many of their resources including their main search engine and image search engine just to name two.
Being that I'm not too tech savvy and don't have much experience with the graphic aspect of the web I don't think others would find my projects too useful to "remix and reuse." Although, with my written work I wouldn't mind sharing some of my work related to intro to journalism or the course I'm currently taking, advance writing workshop. Also, it would be neat to see how others would "remix or reuse" my business papers from my management courses or other business related classes I have taken during my time at Coe. I wouldn't want to share two projects though in my marketing or advertising classes which are my marketing plan and advertising plan, because my group and I spent a lot of time on them and for others to "remix and reuse" those pieces wouldn't sit right with me.
