Further to the previous post on fair use made moments ago, a Code of Best Practices in Fair Use for Online Video was organized by the Center for Social Media within the School of Communication at American University. As danah boyd notes,
Fair use is becoming a bigger and bigger issue as more people get involved in creative acts that involve others’ content … This document is not a legal instruction guide, but a set of best practices. This document also opens up an opportunity for good dialogue about the relationship between law/policy and cultural practices.
