Overview of Blogs: Week 5

I continue to 

Follow Sources and Add to Delicious.

I also had some practice this week using Creative Commons. 

Creative Commons is a place where people can put items

they wish to share with others, 

such as photos and audio files. 

There are different levels of licenses available through Creative Commons. 

One may need only give "attribution" to the owner of the license

to use the item as they wish,

while other licenses specify that the item cannot be changed

and/or cannot be used commercially. 

Finding the photo for the assignment was the easy part.

My original idea was a child holding a balloon

but I did not find a picture close to the one I had in my mind.

I decide to search for tigers

and found pictures of a variety of animals from the cat family.

I picked fighting cubs because it reminded me of my children

when they were young ;-)

Then came the hard part! 

After listening to audio files until four in the morning

I found one that I thought was close to what I wanted.

I had trouble embedding it into my post

but managed with some help from my professor and my husband.

After some thought I decided to use a different audio file

that I had heard the previous night:

the theme to "Friends" by the Rembrandts.

Unfortunately I realized that there was not a license posted

for the audio file where I had found it.

(I thought about downloading from the musicians' website

because it is a free download

but I was unsure if this fit into the criteria of the assignment.)

Luckily I found the audio file I have on my post

after getting the search  box to work 

on one of the websites I had visited.

My little girl really likes the audio file

so what more could I want?

All together I am happy with the post.

I hope everyone enjoys it!
