Facebook et ses 80 milliards de photos - Social Media, Community Management, Social CRM, e-Reputation par Cédric Deniaud
Lorsque l'on donne des chiffres sur Facebook (et Dieu sait que l'on n'en donne trop !!), on s'arrête trop souvent au chiffres des inscrits (400 millions d'inscrits) et des connexions (près de 50% de connexions quotidiennes)... et on omet trop souvent les chiffres de participations ou liés aux contenus. Or ce sont ceux là les pertinents. En effet, si je fais un parallèle avec Twitter , donner seulement les chiffres du nombre de comptes créés, ca serait passer a côté des chiffres les plus pertinents qui permettent véritablement de mesurer l'adoption de l'outil : nombre de tweets en moyenne par utilisateur, taux de connexion, nombre de comptes abandonnées (sans aucun tweet à partir de XX jours).
SoundCloud Announces Deeper Creative Commons Integration | News
SoundCloud , the fast-growing online audio service, today announces a raft of new features that will enable users to find, create and promote their music within its community of over one million music makers and throughout the entire web. Underpinning this is a deeper integration and partnership with Creative Commons that allows their users the freedom and choice to share and reuse content. Visitors to SoundCloud will now be able to uncover popular Creative Commons-licensed tracks via a dedicated homepage and search for free-to-use samples and audio via the advanced search features and tag browsing. Creators who choose to provide their original work with these free and easy-to-use licenses will now have new channels to expose their tracks with the freedom they want them to carry for sharing and reuse.
As anyone following this site closely must know, the Wikipedia community and Wikimedia Foundation board approved the adoption of the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike (CC BY-SA) license as the main content license for Wikipedia and other Wikimedia sites. A post about the community vote has many links explaining the history and importance of this move. Starting last week with English Wikipedia (there are over 700 Wikimedia sites in over 250 languages — the image to the right is sourced from one of them ), the copyright notice on Wikimedia sites is being changed to CC BY-SA.
Wikipedia + CC BY-SA = Free Culture Win!
Until now, the only way to mix your microblog and Creative Commons licenses was to sign up for the free-as-in-speech service identi.ca (or run your own instance of Laconica ), which requires all posts to be under our Attribution license . But as of February 18th, thanks to the work of UK author Andy Clarke, you can CC license your twitter feed via TweetCC . The idea is to post a tweet to Twitter letting @tweetCC know that what license (or waiver, in the case of CC Zero ) you want your feed to be under, and then the service keeps track of your choice for the rest of the web’s reference. Users can also look up whether and how a given Twitter user has chosen to license their feed.

Google Books adds Creative Commons license options - Creative Co
Eric Steuer, August 13th, 2009 Some very exciting news for authors, publishers, and readers: Today, Google launched a program to enable rightsholders to make their Creative Commons-licensed books available for the public to download, use, remix, and share via Google Books. The new initiative makes it easy for participants in Google Books’ Partner Program to mark their books with one of the six Creative Commons licenses (or the CC0 waiver ). This gives authors and publishers a simple way to articulate the permissions they have granted to the public through a CC license, while giving people a clear indication of the legal rights they have to CC-licensed works found through Google Books. The Inside Google Books post announcing the initiative talks a bit about what this all means: We’ve marked books that rightsholders have made available under a CC license with a matching logo on the book’s left hand navigation bar.
Our fall campaign is in full swing and superheroes are giving at all levels – as such, it’s a great time to shine the spotlight on some of our most significant donors. Lulu , the fantastic open publishing platform, is one such organization. Beyond offering creators of all types the means to publish their own work, Lulu offers a CC-licensing option for authors when they are creating their books. Over a million creators have used the service to date with approximately 20,000 titles to Lulu’s catalog each month. We caught up with founder and CEO Bob Young to talk about Lulu generally, why they’ve chosen to support CC, and how our licenses have helped Lulu grow in the past decade.

YouTube adopte (enfin) les Creative Commons !
Bonne nouvelle pour la « Culture Libre ». YouTube vient d’annoncer sur son blog une nouvelle fonctionnalité de poids : la possibilité de télécharger les vidéos (testée pour le moment uniquement avec quelques organismes pilotes et partenaires de l’opération, principalement des universités). C’est sans nul doute pratique, mais la véritable bonne nouvelle n’est que la conséquence de cette nouveauté. En effet, à partir du moment où YouTube permet à l’utilisateur de télécharger les vidéos pour les stocker dans son ordinateur, nous quittons le monde du streaming et il se pose alors inévitablement la question des droits d’usage de ces vidéos, que vous pouvez potentiellement copier, modifier et partager avec qui bon vous semble.
Vimeo introduit les licences Creative Commons pour ses vidéos. Et YouTube ?
Ces dernières années, les licences Creative Commons ont pris une place de tout premier plan dans la façon dont sont gérés certains droits d'une œuvre. Moins limitatives que le droit d'auteur classique, ces licences permettent de préserver les droits de l'auteur tout en introduisant une certaine souplesse d'utilisation pour les autres. Apparu il y a une petite dizaine d'années, le projet Creative Commons visait donc à fournir un cadre juridique viable, afin de protéger à la fois les droits du créateur tout en permettant une libre circulation des œuvres culturelles.Flickr/Creative Commons
Many Flickr users have chosen to offer their work under a Creative Commons license, and you can browse or search through content under each type of license. Here are some recently added bits and pieces: Attribution License » 38,922,755 photos ( See more )

Shockingly, we have yet to post anything on uber-online artist community deviantArt , who not only act as a creative outlet for over 7 million users but do so with CC licensing built into their UI. Our bad. Hopefully we can make up for lost blogging through an interview with Richard Hartley , Director of Community Development at deviantArt (and sometimes clown in disguise ). Read on to learn more about the incredibly rich deviantArt community, how CC licences play a roll in user submissions, and future plans that include nothing short of global domination ( seriously ).
