Find Creative Commons Images in Google Image Search
Google Image Search added the option to restrict the results to images that are licensed using Creative Commons, a list of flexible licenses that allow content creators to share their works with the world. The options aren't yet available in the interface, but you can use the search box below to find images that are licensed using some of the most popular Creative Commons licenses: The four options displayed above combine different Creative Commons license, but you can create customized searches for other combination of licenses: * public domain images: * images licensed using Creative Commons Attribution: * images licensed using Creative Commons Attribution Share-Alike: Last month, Yahoo Image Search added a similar feature, limited to Flickr images.

List of Creative Commons Image Directories and Sites Creative Commons Image Libraries Creative Commons images are a special subset of 'free images'. Creative Commons came about as a way to simplify the minefield that is 'free' content (view our listing of free stock photo sites) and allow photographers to provide ('license') their work for free under easy to understand terms which benefit both the photographer and the user. The good people at creativecommons.org explain this better, but CC allows photographers and illustrators or creators of any content to clearly license their work, and tag it in such a way that it can be found online easily. For the image user creative commons makes it clear if the images can be used in commercial applications, if changes can be made and in ALL cases an attribution as specified by the creator must be included when the image is used. The above icon specifies that you can use the specified content for free in non-commercial applications, provided that you attribute (link back) as specified.

How To: Backup And Search All Your Friends' Tweets In Googl I just set up an automatic backup of all 3000 of my friends' Twitter messages and became able to search through their Twitter history two years into the past with just five minutes of easy clicking. Only two things are required: Dave Winer's new Twitter OPML tool and a Google Reader account. Twitter's search engine only goes back about a week and a half. Last week RSS forefather Dave Winer wrote and posted a little tool for pulling any Twitter user's friends list out of Twitter and saving it as an OPML file. OPML stands for Outline Processor Markup Language and in this case it's just a bundle of RSS feeds than can be moved around in bulk. It's all about pulling down an OPML file of your Twitter friends' feeds and slapping that file into Google Reader. How to Make it Happen It couldn't be much simpler. It may take just a minute, but the end result will be an OPML file. What Can You Do With This? Do you want to read Tweets through Google Reader? Caveats

How Should Tweets Be Ranked in Search Engine Results? « I’m Not November 2, 2009 by Hutch Carpenter Anyone remember when Loic LeMeur had the temerity to suggest Twitter rank its search results by the number of followers people have? His post, with 109 comments and reaction from Michael Arrington, Robert Scoble and many others, clearly struck a nerve. Fast forward to the past couple weeks. Both Microsoft Bing and Google announced deals to provide tweets in search results. Let me say that again: Google and Bing will be providing tweet search results! Bing’s version is the first out the gate. How should tweets be ranked in Bing and Google search results? I hope your answer isn’t, “I wouldn’t.” So what about running searches for tweets? First, a good question to ask is, why do people want to search tweets? Why Are You Searching Tweets? To my mind, there are three use cases where people will search for tweets rather than search for websites: Find latest on a subject: The appearance of an article or blog post in the search engines can take a while.

Google Answers the Twitter Threat With Time-Based Search Options Google has just made search a lot more useful, and real-time search offerings (i.e. Twitter Search, OneRiot, and Tweetmeme) are about to feel the power of the Google juggernaut. Why? Because of the release of Google Search Options, a new Google search feature that provides the user the ability to drill down search results by recency, content type, and more. Announced today by Marissa Mayer, Google's VP of Search and User Experience, Google Search Options is an attempt to organize universal search results - ones that include news, blog posts, images, and videos. But as you look at the other options that are available, things get intriguing, starting with time-based filtering. One of the other cool things that Google has released with Search Options is Wonder Wheel, which is a visual representation of Google search results that you can't miss - the text is rendered in classic multi-colored Google fashion. Search Options should be live for all users by the end of today.
