Can posting things on a blog, serve as proof of copyright?
aside from getting thing registered with the government or w/e, and i have heard about the method or idea of mail yourself your own written works, can a blog serve as a proof of copyright? does blogspot(blogger) have any rights to what we write, or is it all of ours?
Answers:
copyright refers only to the fixed form. what you need to do is either make a printout, or burn a permanent CD of the text. the problem with a blog or any electronic only media is it can be altered at anytime. you need to be able to produce in court a tangible fixed copy of your copyright claim. you don't need to file a registration, but you do need the equivalent to the materials that would have to be submitted to get a registration.
I don't think so, but double check the copyright organization web site
Unless the website states that what you have posted is copryghted once you post it then no. Anything you post online is fair game...unless you can prove that you've had it copyrighted it prior to posting it.
