Then some content hosting sites offer you the possibility to license 
your content without going to creativecommons.org/license: flickr, 
blip.tv, archive.org; blogging tools too: for instance the blogs at 
digitaldivide.net, but other ones too.

In these cases, the result is a button linked to the deed for humans, 
but you do not actually get a full registration code with the name of 
the author, the title of the work etc.

Does this mean that these licenses linking to the deed, but without 
registration info, are invalid?
