Wedge Salad
First, I've never seen nor had a Wedge Salad until a few weeks ago. I grew up and lived most of my life abroad (courtesy, US Army).
I attended a technical seminar a few weeks ago at Flemings Steak House (@ the Gateway) and they served up this salad). I decided to Google the recipe, found one that was similar and posted it on my blog site (that was intended for my friends & family).
Tonight, I received this email. I was quite perturbed. Can you (c) an American salad that is presumably widely known & made?

Hi James,
Please remove the photos and recipe of my wedge salad recipe from your website. If you like something, you're more than welcome to link to it. However, republishing my photos and recipe, including directions, on your blog is a violation of my copyright. I spend a lot of time cooking, photographing, and writing the recipes for my blog. While I enjoy sharing my recipes, having others republishing them without my permission is upsetting and illegal.

While I immediately removed my blog post of this recipe, it really irritated me that this person went on the Twitter-sphere and started bitching about how rude I was and how little I knew about copyrights.

4:27 PM Dec 12th from web in reply to LadyDucayne http://utahbruteforce.com stole my photos & recipe & republishes it on his blog. Emailed him to request removal, he calls me an ass. Jerk!
So is a tweet always the result of a wedgie?

What if someone was stealing your youtube videos removing the water mark and posting them on their website without crediting you? How would you feel in someone started copying the posts off the front page of bogley and loading them on to a website full of google adds?

Just to clear the air here (is that even possible), I did not remove watermarks or anything. I referenced the site, but forgot to put a LINK BACK to it.
I admit I over reacted after receiving the email and have since apologized to the person that put together the photos, etc.
As for content on my site, I don't claim (c) to any of it. It's freely accessible to anybody that wants to use it.

Now, it's percieved that I don't believe in copyrighting something, which is false. I just don't believe in "lazy" copyrighting. If you put something on the internet and don't want it copied or linked, I've got some bad news.
The good news is, you can ALWAYS turn this into a good thing for your credit by watermarking the image. Then you will GLADLY let others copy your images and do the marketing for you.
And if you finally decide that you want to have them on your site but disable linking the images, there are multiple ways to do that too. Flash image slideshows, disabling right click on the page, watermarking.... A good technique is to post thumbnails, and require registration to view the full image. There are a lot of options to discourage copyright infringement. The honest truth is, if you're lazy about it, you will never be able to stop it. It doesn't mean they're right, but it will continue.

I was talking about not getting any credit at all for your work, not something that eventually leads back to you.
Also I am unaware of anything open source that does not give credit where credit is due
and on that note you guys should check this new browser I created -
I call it.. FireFox.

Besides, if somebody links to one of my pictures and doesn't provide any link back, I can try to waste hours of my time trying to stop that one instance, tweet about it, complain a little on facebook, and maybe it will get taken down. But what about the 10 sites I don't come across?
I might as well use my time more wisely. ...starting with that list I mentioned before on lazy copyrighting.
Now with you, Summit, you take some amazing photos. You put a lot of work into what you do. You would actually care a lot more than me if one of your photos was posted elsewhere without credit. I completely understand that.
But the salad photo, I didn't see it, but I imagine it was just a point and shoot camera taking a picture of what they made.... getting the recipe from somebody else as well. The owner most likely didn't realize this was doing some marketing for them because it reached a more broad audience than what she was currently reaching. This being said, I haven't been to that site, and have no idea what it's about.
And if she didn't want a broad audience, that it was only intended for family and friends, she should have set it private.
