To Copyright or Not

Everything on the web is copyrighted, whether it bears a copyright
notice or not, and unless it gives specific permission to reproduce
it, you may not copy it or redistribute it.
What is Copyrighted?
Any image or text on a web page, and the
complete web page itself.
Any image or text written down anywhere, not
just on the web.

Written work is automatically copyrighted when
created. You can use the © symbol right away. Even
if you don't put that little © on your work, you
automatically own the copyright the instant your
work of expression becomes written down.

Now while a copyright-that little © followed by
the year and author's name-is not required, it is
recommended in order to remind people that the
author claims a copyright, which helps to deter
would be plagiarists.

There is a new statute in the US, it's called the "Digital Millennium Copyright Act of 1998" signed by the President on Oct. 28, 1998 and it addressed a number of copyright issues created by the increasing use of the Internet for commerce in materials protected by copyright(such as websites, email and software)

Neta is the No Electronic Theft Act signed by President Clinton in December 1998. This act makes if a serious criminal offense, to engage in certain acts of copying materials protected by copyright that were previously treated as criminal offenses only if they were done for financial gain. It covers much more than electronic theft. You can register your copyright by filing a simple form and depositing 1 or 2 samples of the work with the US Copyright Office. To obtain forms, instructions, or the location of the Copyright Office in your state, you can call the US Copyright Office by telephone @ (202) 707-9100, or visit then online at: <http://www.loc.gov/copyright Currently, in the US, resgistration cost $20. per work. If you're registering several works that are part of one series, you may be able to save money by registering the works together. For more information visit: <http://www.ifla.org/II/cpyright.html
