CREATIVE COMMONS STATISTICS GENERATOR
At the end of last week OpenBusiness.cc released a Creative Commons
Statistics Generator: www.openbusiness.cc/cc_stat/.
The tool itself is licensed under the GPL and can hence be tinkered
with.
The Statistics Generator works by querying Yahoo! for back-links to
Creative Commons licences.
The number of backlinks gives insight into the amount of CC licenced
works available on the Internet.
The statistics generator has been created as part of a quantitative
and qualitative survey into the usage of Creative Commons licences
kindly supported by the Arts Council England. The project is
facilitaed by OpenBusiness.cc and focuses on Creative Commons in
England and Wales.
CC SURVEY - Win an iPod
Any UK based artists, writers and musicians among you have three more
weeks to win an iPod from OpenBusiness by completing our survey:

If you want to learn about the survey feel free to visit our site and

We look forwards to hearing from you.
