Mozcc

Mozcc is a nice add-on to Firefox for creative commons aware websurfers. It installs very quickly and puts a cc logo in the Firefox status bar. Then for suitably tagged webpages offered under a creative commons licence, symbols appear in the status bar showing which licence the page is offered under. Click on the symbol and you get the details of the licence.

My colleague, Tony Hirst, alerted me to Mozcc by telling me that our internet law course does not have the appropriate tags to recognise and make use of it!

Paul Miller of the Common Information Environment clearly approves of this kind of utility.
