Unexpected reprints
2007-05-17 | Filed under Ego-surfing |
I was ego-surfing the other day (with Technorati and Bloglines instead of Google, just for a change of pace), and found a couple of Fables folktales reprinted in the past few months. I get a kick out of this sort of thing. These two stories were published before Creative Commons existed, but if it had been around at the time the folktales would’ve been released under a CC license (and in fact at various points the website sketched out CC-style permission to reprint selected content).
“Deirdre of the Sorrows” is reprinted by the blog Turfing. The story is accompanied by a snazzy (charcoal or pencil?) illustration.
“The Three Crows” shows up in Captain Awesome’s MySpace blog. No illustration, but you’ve gotta love the piratese in the Captain’s profile, and his very sensible assertion that country music is not awesome.
