Yesterday evening I had the pleasure of attending a Women in Consulting dinner meeting, and then speak on a panel called "Blogging Your Business to Another Level". My co-panelists were 3 fantastic women in technology: Karen Greenwood Henke (managing director of Nimble Press and chief wrangler at The Grant Wrangler Blog) and Elisa Camahort Page (COO and co-founder of BlogHer and author of 8 blogs), and it was moderated by the Author-izer, Sallie Goetsch. I'm providing a downloadable link to of my one-page "IP legal checklist" for bloggers that I created for the event. I'd welcome feedback on this checklist, as it's the first time I thought to sit down and create such a thing.

Hi Colette
Thanks for the checklist. It is a very handy reference for bloggers!
Hi Colette, that's a very comprehensive checklist....
I assume you've created that for the purpose of helping bloggers understand relevant legal terminology and the way they should word things on their blogs...
I've also found it very valuable to include some disclaimers on my blogs too, whether they are legal disclaimers or health related disclaimers...
I found this site's disclaimers very useful, some of your readers may also.

Here's to more and more women becoming involved in blogging.
Thanks for the checklist its very useful. I have a query on it, and was wondering if you can answer it ?
In the section on copyrights it says you have to ask permission of the copyright holder when using their material. Is this always the case ? As I was always under the impression (maybe im misguided and you can set me straight) that its o.k. to list/show other peoples material (such as quoting an article in your blog) as long as you quote them as a the source.
In university and school when we used to write up a project we never went round asking for permission for the material we just quoted the author as a source.............
Thanks
