Blogging and copyright

A number of people have been making connections between current events and the course. Wonderful!

In terms of copyrighted material, you need to be aware of what you can and can not post on your blog. Posting the full text of a copyrighted article, for example, is a no-no. Providing a link to that article, a short excerpt, or summary of the article is fine.

When we get to posting book reviews we'll have to talk about how to post pictures of the front covers of the books.

I'm not an expert in this area--let's ask around and see if we can find more authoritative guidelines on the topic.
