A Sane Approach to Sharing (News Online)
Posted by Alan Wexelblat
I read a lot of financial blogs and such as part of my day job, and I happened to notice this in the footer of an
ft.com (Financial Times) article:
Copyright The Financial Times Limited 2010. You may share using our article tools. Please don't cut articles from FT.com and redistribute by email or post to the web.
Below that text are a set of links to let you twitter, dig, stumbleupon, etc the column. At least 10 different methods, all one-click options. And the copyright statement itself is pretty straight-up: distribute, link, share, but please don't steal.
In contrast to certain paywall isolationism it's a breath of fresh air to see a mainstream media outlet take a more sensible posture.
