Girls Talking
Posted on 04 October 2006
Girls seated on the side of the pavement and on the road deep in conversation at the Ceili Mor in Cork a few weeks ago. Despite the noise of people dancing, an announcer and music playing I think a meaningful discussion was had!
Looks like I’ve made it. One of my photos was used on the snopes.com messageboard without linking back to me or crediting me. I shouldn’t be surprised I suppose, but I am a little angry at the original poster. Thankfully someone linked to it further down in the conversation. Thanks Kathy B.
Snopes.com have now published the picture and the joke description on a separate page linking to this blog. Thank you!
Read what Chris Weeks writes about copyright. I wonder what he has in mind. On a related note, the Orphan Works Bill is dead! This law in the US would have meant that “images on the web in particular as fair game for unauthorised (and thus unpaid) use, as it requires only rather nominal checks to be made to establish the owndership of copyright before material can be freely used.” I like the way Peter Marshall solved unauthorised commercial usage of his images. He sent an invoice and a polite letter to the offending company!

welcome to the club!
funny because this is the first thing i read after having read some blogging-bitch the riot act!!!!!!
serendipitous in an odd way i imagine.
Pity, but I guess it’s a risk we all take when we post so freely on the web. It would be nice if we could trust that this wouldn’t happen.
Great photo today! I would love to know what the young ladies were talking about, as it seems to have turned off the more mature lady on the right.
