    I will create a lot of killer apps, but in due time. ;P Yes, that's what I intend to do with my website. To showcase my products and services. I am working on it at the moment, and was wondering if it's OK to plagiarise someone else's copyright notice, or get a lawyer to do it for me (plagiarise, write, whatever, as long as it's his ass). I'm not even sure if I really need to put a copyright notice.
    Regards,

    We all need copyright notices. How about making the copyright notice the main feature of all the pages ? Regardz Colin J Davies

LOL On a serious note, I guess having my first tech book with someone like Tom Archer (who is totally established in this field) as co-author is bound to help me in future when I try and write other books on my own. It's a little like being a co-pilot for a while and then flying your own plane :-) Nish

                    No, a "four" or "six" in Cricket is when you score four or six runs in a single shot. Runs are something like points in other games. Basically, if the ball crosses the boundary, you score four runs. If it crosses the boundary without hitting the ground once, you get a six. :)

                            Yeah, I think I want to do something like that too. I don't think I need a full blown copyright notice. I'm not a corporate or something after all. ;)

                              Under UK law (and internationally also) I think you automatically gain copyright protection over anything you express, and in whatever form. As you say, it's worth pointing out this to other people so that if a problem does crop up you can at least say -- look I warned you. However, I don't think there's any real need to get a lawyer to draft you anything. Specifically in the UK there's something called a moral right for literary works, effectively it allows you as an author to complain if someone publishes your work (with your permission -- copyright still has to be satisfied), but publishes it in a bad way. For example, printing it in a pop-up book or something. As the author you have an over-riding control over how your work is handled. Normally, just noting a (C) at the bottom of a page is sufficient, for example, the notice put at the bottom of CP articles. You just need to say that all use has to be cleared with you first etc. -- Paul "Put the key of despair into the lock of apathy.

                                Cool! I was aware of this, but wanted to have a copyright notice anyway, just for kicks. :cool: Thanks for the advice. I think I'll follow it. :)

                                      Anybody have one that I can use for my website? Not that I really need to have a copyright notice on my website, but I want it to be there just for kicks. I mean, I want a copyright notice without copyright attached to it, so I can use it. ;P For my website, not EULA or something.
