I have some other new contents of 2015 to publish on this blog but the everyday life keeps me busy (for example, my sons). If that were not enough, this website is ready for three languages but in practice I just write in Basque …when I write.

Regarding the topics covered here, I want to cover new ones but I don’t know how deep the everyday life will let me do that, so I have decided to make some changes: leave Sindominio project witch I consider it’s ran down and open a .EUS new site on January where I will publish only in Basque.

Regarding this website, here they are some data:

• Duration: 9 years (2007-2015)
• Articles: 147 (83 in Basque, 55 in Castilian and 10 in English)
• Comments: 266 (142 in Basque, 116 in Castilian and 8 in English)

So, ikusimakusi.net is dead. I will not publish more here. See you in ikusimakusi.eus!

Other languages: euskara, castellano

Creative Commons has published a new license/certificate called CC0. More than one will ask himself why they publish another license if they are already a lot. The key is that this new certificate fills an important hole in the wordwide legislation that recognizes (and protects) the public domain, but don’t give to the author the option to release their works directly in the public domain. For that, an amount of years stablished by each legislation must be gone by and finally the works arrive to the public domain.

USA’s legislation allows the authors to release their works directly in the public domain and that’s why Creative Commons created the CC PD certificate. But in Europe (including France and Spain), this option is not in the provision of the legislations, so the authors can’t free their works. 70 years since the death of the author must be hold on.

Faced with this situation, I have decided to replace the generic public domain notice in the footer of this web site to the next new one: “All the contents of this website, unless it is indicated other thing, are given to the public domain to the extend allowable by law.”

The link references the Creative Commons’ CC0 certificate (it isn’t a license, but a certificate as the public domain legal notice):

As you can see, this text says: “The person who associated a work with this document has dedicated the work to the Commons by waiving all of his or her rights to the work worldwide under copyright law and all related or neighboring legal rights he or she had in the work, to the extent allowable by law.”

This means that the author relinquish all the rights over the work, and if the law doesn’t allow to give up all them, the author relinquish all the rights allowed by the law.

To finish this article, here it is updated the image that shows all the options that Creative Commons offers, whether they are free (green) or not, whether they are copyleft or not, etc.:

As you can see, this weblog has three languages (… well, in fact they are three weblogs). Later I want to add a wiki and a photolog or some similar section for my photographs. For now I think it’s enough with this!

The contents of this weblog are not divided by categories, as I don’t have a very clear idea about which subjects I am going to talk. Despite of this, I am going to classify the articles by tags as I find them much more practicals than categories.

Finally, I have to say that despite the blog, I don’t see myself as a conventional blogger. I say this because first of all, one of the reasons that has given me a boost to create this website is just to have a place where publish the contents which doesn’t fit at other projects where I take part. Another reason is that I think that in this moment of my life, I am leaving a more introspective phase and I am starting a more productive one (at least from the net’s point of view). Besides, I will produce the articles without any regular recurrence, staying mute perhaps for long periods of time. Most of the bloggers will think this is bad for the blog, but, despite of all, I have come here to do this.

In any case, that fond of replicating memes and that fever for new web tools as many bloggers profess, are absolutely not interesting for me. My aim is to create contents. About very different subjects, in different formats and beside when I want to. So, my appreciated friend who is reading this lines, give yourself advised about what you can find inside this website.

I am conscious that a weblog of this nature will not show appealing for most people. But this is the way I have found to satisfy my expressive needs. If this is also useful for anyone else, so much the better.
