Random Discoveries: Wordpress’ T&Cs

While reading a blog I check regularly, the Small Print Project (http://smallprint.netzoo.net/) they mentioned blogs and social networking sites having sometimes odd terms, such as strange claims of rights on reusing/reselling the content or the ability to turn off your blog/area without needing any justification…
He then mentions checking the one he uses, wordpress, and finding no such provision. For some reason I followed that link (http://wordpress.com/tos/) and I noticed something else on that page: We’ve decided to make the below Terms of Service available under a Creative Commons Sharealike license, which means you’re more than welcome to steal it and repurpose it for your own use, just make sure to replace references to us with ones to you, and if you want we’d appreciate a link to WordPress.com somewhere on your site. We spent a lot of money and time on the below, and other people shouldn’t need to do the same.

I find this extremely cool
