Deploying CC+ for the common good: Buy4Commons

[ Thanks to steve hill for this link. ]

"Naturally, there's a recommended RDF code, button graphics, example mock-ups and so forth, as you would expect from a Creative Commons initiative. Follow the CC+ Protocol link for the specifics. But even so, there's not a whole lot, because it really is just that simple.

"It's not new of course. Magnatune and Beat Pick have been doing this successfully for a few years now. What's new is that Creative Commons is now promoting this idea as a standard, to be implemented by a lot of Creative Commons friendly websites. Hopefully, we'll be seeing little CC+ boxes on a lot of content sharing websites (I'm personally hoping to see it on Jamendo and Flickr)."
