Question by Jake H: Are Youtube videos considered “public domain” for personal use?
I’m making a documentary, and I was wondering if I can take stock news footage from youtube and just use the audio. I planned on submitting this to film festivals and possibly even copyrighting it, so my questions are:

1) Are youtube videos considered to be “public domain” and free for me to use?
2) Would I be I breaking any legal rules if I download the audio and use it?
3) If so, what do I have to do so that I can’t be sued?

Any help would be wonderful. Thanks so much!

Sorry, most of the videos (including the audio part) on youtube are copyrighted. The only things that aren’t would be old movies where the copyright has expired or things the copyright holder has chosen to release to public domain.

You might be able to use small parts for certain reasons under “fair use” or “fair dealing” (the name depends on where you live). You can read more about that for advice (eg. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fair_use , http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fair_dealing ). For example, Saturday Night Live can show a parody of Harry Potter without getting sued because parody is usually covered under fair use.

To protect yourself from getting sued, you really need to contact the copyright holders of everything you want to use and ask them if you can use their work. You can explain what you need it for and see if they’ll let you use it. I’ve heard of documentaries using famous songs and paying the copyright holder $ 1 or nothing for their use.

Good luck with your film!

Question by Ruben M: how do i get a file on my website as a “rss” for people to download as a podcast?
i’m starting a podcast and i got the audio already edited and i got in on myspace. but i want to put it on my personal website on a blog as an “rss” or whatever it is so they can download it

Best answer:

Answer by Kacky
RSS is supposed to alert your friends’ podcast program every time you add a new episode. But I think that for Myspace, you have to make a blog post, and then it alerts everyone who has subscribed to your blog. It looks like they don’t have a subscription button for the podcast itself.

If your episodes are short, you can create a band site (even if you are not a band) and then it gives you a few more options.

London, UK (PRWEB) December 10, 2007

Launched early in 2007, initially for the UK market, WWDC now has over 1000 web design companies registered. Recently we opened up the service to businesses in the US, Canada, Australia, Ireland and India. Each has their own separate sub-site.

There are thousands of web design directories that provide a listing service for web design companies. A Google search for ‘website design company directory’ shows over 184,000,000 results from pages worldwide. Most directories provide no value-added functionalities for web design members or users. How do such directories help a business looking for a web design company? The simple answer is they don’t!

At Which Web Design Company a business can search and find web design which matches their particular criteria – whether that’s price, location or type of website required. They can narrow down their choice by reading ratings and reviews from previous clients and can contact the web design company directly.

Which Web Design Company was created to bring value back into the web design industry. It’s crucial for businesses to be able to find the right web design company for their industry. It’s time the web design industry distinguished itself – many web design companies have already hocked onto the fact that they need to work with a niche industry to create successful websites. Web designing is more than just putting together pages to form a website; it’s about creating a marketing tool. And to do this, it’s an absolute must to understand the company’s industry, understand the business’s objectives – because the whole point in building their website is to achieve these targets through the Internet. WWDC creates a platform for people to be able to find a website design company which is best suited to their industry, a company that will understand who their customers are and how to reach out to them.

Our aim is to expand this service to every country around the world and have the majority of web design companies registered with us, so that when a business wants to know whether a web design company is reliable, or to search for a suitable web design company, WWDC would be the first resource they would check.

“Java Script is better than other scripting languages for web design”

Best answer:

Answer by Pain Killer
if your question is “is Java Script better than other scripting languages for web design” the answer is not necessarily. It depends on the application. CGI has been famous with perl scripts due to the nature of perl. Java script has its own advantages of being compatible with Java. It is like a super set to Java. But some people still prefer CGI. Some cases CGI is better performing than java script or JSPs.
