About
The CC Integrating mind map template, created by Creative Commons Taiwan, provides a structured overview of how to integrate Creative Commons licensing into web platforms and business models. It covers three major areas: Showcases (featuring real-world CC adopters like Flickr, Jamendo, and PowerDirector), CC Plus (for offering additional permissions beyond the standard CC license), and Web Platforms Integration (a step-by-step guide from planning to implementation). The template includes specific nodes such as 'the Default license', 'Embed code (Attribution)', and 'database schema', making it a practical cheat sheet for developers, product managers, and content strategists. With 40 nodes organized into a single sheet, this CC Integrating mind map serves as both a reference and a planning tool for anyone looking to adopt or support CC licensing.
