Plugins: Comment License

Comment licencing is likely to become a growing issue as ‘user generated content’ becomes more and more important to all media, but in particular blog. I was pleased as the proverbial punch when reading Techquila Shots to find one of my comments on TechCrunch (yes, it was about twitter) being linked directly.

A timely reminder for me to apply the nice Comment Licencing plugin from Alex King. What does it do?

Comment License shows a license with terms of your choosing in your comments form. You can edit the terms of your license in the options page.

It can be downloaded here.

I’m currently looking at a few options for the licencing. I’m a fan of creative commons licences, but do any of you have any thoughts before I apply the plugin? I’d rather guarantee your rights, than take them away.

A sharealike licence seems appropriate.
