Not only are they doing a great job, by providing us with the tools we need to licence our creative work (or not so creative), but they also do everything they can to help everyone. My own site uses a CC licence, so I can only be proud of talking about them.

In their own words:

Creative Commons provides free tools that let authors, scientists, artists, and educators easily mark their creative work with the freedoms they want it to carry. You can use CC to change your copyright terms from “All Rights Reserved” to “Some Rights Reserved.”

I’m doing a presentation at my University, in a discipline regarding communications techniques, and I decided to speak about Creative Commons. I wanted to give something to my audience, so I’ve contacted CC, requesting some flyers or any merchandise they could send me, so I could do a better interactive work with everyone.

They were so great, and answered really fast! In six days I received a mail order with a lot’s of stickers and some postcards, all Creative Commons related.

I think everyone, should follow their example, and be professional like this!

Once again, THANK YOU Creative Commons, I will do anything at my power to spread the word! Keep up the good work!

We have to post these rules before we give you the facts.

Players start with eight random facts/habits about themselves.

People who are tagged need to write their own blog about their eight things and post these rules.

At the end of your blog, you need to choose eight people to get tagged and list their names.

Don’t forget to leave them a comment telling them they’re tagged, and to read your blog

It’s going to be hard to tag 8 more people, since I don’t know that many bloggers online…

Here are my 8 random facts:

1. My favorite drink is Coca-Cola, which is also the name given to a person which was born at Maputo, capital of Mozambique (where I was born)
2. I used to hate cats, and now, me and my girlfriend share the house with 2
3. I absolutely love to cook anything from fresh pasta, sushi, to the more regular food… I truly believe if I wasn’t a computer geek I was studying for chef
4. I already set my feet on 12 different countries (this by the time I was 20)
5. I never sleep with my socks on, but I have to get in bed with them
6. I panic if someone squeezes my nose
7. Once I was run over by a luggage truck, on my way to surprise my mother in the airplane
8. Once I was truly disappointed to know that my dream of being an astronaut would be impossible, because I have more than the permitted height, both in NASA and in ESA… I measure 1,94 meters!

And thats it! For now I only have one blog buddy besides Rick, but I will update my list in the future.
I choose to tag Artur Martins on his blog.

I hope I get this list bigger… =)
