CP24 and the photos they took from Flickr

The Torontoist outlines this story fairly well, with a little blogger editorializing thrown in to get the conversation rolling.

The gist:
-photographer finds man breaking into his house, burglar jumps from window, breaks leg
-photog takes pics of injured burglar below his window, posts them to Flickr
-CP24 covers incident, asks for photos, does not get permission, but runs them anyway without attribution after accessing them on Flickr

It's a fair use issue which is fleshed out nicely in the comments section of the original post.

Spark Wiki

I think Spark Wiki is what Aaron linked-to in his comment from a few days ago (the full url was cut off because Blogger, more and more, refuses to display properly in Firefox).

"Introducing the Spark Wiki

From the beginning, we wanted Spark to be a collaborative radio show.

So far, that's happened mostly through this blog. We use it to solicit questions for upcoming interviews, post raw tape, ask for your comments and story ideas, and then we include these things in the radio show.

But blogs aren't always the best way to collaborate on something like a radio show. As Luke Closs explained to me a few weeks ago, a blog is a one-to-many form of communication.

So that's why we're really pleased to announce the Spark Wiki. We hope it will complement this blog and the radio show (and podcast). Right now, it's an experiment: a place to collaborate on story ideas, suggest guests, music selections... whatever. It's a many-to-many form of communication, and I'm really excited to learn how we can use it to make more participatory, collaborative radio."
