Copyright, Fair Use and Blogging
Tuesday evening, I spent time with a woman who had copyright concerns about the blogging that she and her colleagues are doing. While we didn't use the word "myths", clearly there are many myths and urban legends that surround copyright. Below are links to the resources I gave her. Obviously, these are a drop in the bucket, but good conversation starters for us over coffee and for her colleagues on Wednesday morning!

One of the problems is that not all blogs are created or hosted in the US, so the Fair Use provisions may not apply. In Australia, our fair dealing provisions are only moderately akin to fair use.
Lise, you are very correct. Thank you for your comment.
Each blogger needs to understand the copyright laws for his/her country and abide by them.
Thanks Jill! This really was all very helpful :)
Tremendously helpful, thank you !
