As you might imagine, I get a number of Thanksgiving messages - email, social media, mail. I thought I would highlight one or two that best caught my attention, with a few insights. This first post is regarding the email I received from Earthjustice. It was simple, to the point and linked to an impressive video. Here's the email:
My only complaint is that the unEARTHED component asking what I am thankful for is not more prominently featured. It looks like an afterthought at the end of the message... which could be interpreted as Earthjustice not caring what I think (NOTE: I don't think that's what they think).
I'm not going to waste precious time policing how you attribute my work or ideas because I am assuming that you will be forthright, transparent, honest, and generous in your attribution. My hope is that you go a little beyond reuse (cut and paste and attribute) and add some value to the sharing chain. I'd love to know how you have reused, remixed, or repurposed my content so I can learn from how you have extended the ideas or added value to the sharing chain, but it isn't a requirement. But please don't be evil and not attribute with my name, blog name, and link to the blog.
Additionally, if you feel I have inadvertently used material for which you have a copyright, please contact me here and I will either remove or properly credit the item, based on your preference.
