A: creative commons is a nonprofit organisation that works to increase the amount of creativity(culture, educational, and scientific content) in ' the commons'---the body of work that is available to the public for free and legal sharing, use, repurposing, and remixing. Personally, I think creative commons used by my major very often. For example, I have a course called art and culture in this semester. In this subject, we need to appropriate pictures in the class, which means we should use original one to change another meaning. I think this is sort of creative commons.

3. Find an academic article which discusses creative commons using a database or online journal. Provide a link and a summary of the article.
A: The browsing option reaches only a small sampling of Creative Commons licensed content. The Creative Commons team refuses to develop a comprehensive directory or database of Creative Commons content because they feel it undermines the vision of the Net - a distributed, decentralized network. Consequently, there is no complete directory. And this frankly is a real disappointment and a glaring weakness.

A: A portable application (portable app) is a computer software program that is able to run independently without the need to install files to the system it is run upon. They are commonly used on a removable storage device such as a CD, USB flash drive, flash card, or floppy disk. Portable apps should not be confused with software portability where software allows its source code to be compiled for differentcomputing platforms. Portable applications can be run on any computer system with which they are compatible but typically require a specific operating system such as Microsoft Windows XP or above, certain version of a Linux distro, etc. I never heard portable app before.In my opinion, if portable app want to accepted by people, it should let more and more people know this system and test it. The users can evaluate portable apps good or not.
