A Global Status Update about Creative Commons
By Jon Phillips, Creative Commons Fellow

Creative Commons has grown! With a global representation of jurisdictions, businesses such as Google, Microsoft and SoundCloud dependent upon Creative Commons legal tools, artists in Hong Kong licensing music under CC licenses, China-based Modern Media's Get It Louder festival, the Whitehouse and Al Jazeera all using Creative Commons licenses, what is left to do?
