Works great for me, though it doesn't pick up public domain metadata. 
See <http://www.aaronsw.com/weblog/> for example.  We have a (PD) icon 
at <http://creativecommons.org/images/license/pd.gif>.

My immediate suggestions are cosmetic:

- it would be nice if all nodes in the detail popup were expanded by default
- and uris in this view were clickable
- and the detail popup window were resizable
- "(cc) creative commons" in the popup ought to link to the CC home page

- the license characteristic icons look pretty jagged.  I suspect we 
need to create some customized to the exact dimensions required to fit 
in the browser status bar.
