We know of no current solution which addresses this usage scenario. Not all users are already familiar with a workflow using tabbed browsing to access the information on creativecommons.org and know how to properly tag their content. | We know of no current solution which addresses this usage scenario.

==Process of development== | |||
During the process of evaluating our first prototype we received a short message from one of our participants who complained | |||
about a change on her blog platform which messed up the layout of her license tag and rendered it functionally broken. | |||

This call for help gave us the impulse to focus our attention more towards the usability of our proposed license manager | |||
application, which will aid the non-tech-savvy user in the process of correctly tagging his works with the approriate license. | |||
Our group came to the conclusion to roll back our initial development from behind and decided to approach the problem the | |||
opposite way around. We assume that the typical user of our chosen target group decrees an intrinsic motivation to tag his | |||
work with appropriate copyright information. | |||

==Revised idea== | |||
In our new proposed solution we would offer the user a tiny license manager interface which would initially provide a default | |||
license corresponding to "all rights reserved". We deliberately chose an empty looking tag icon similar to those provided by | |||
Creative Commons, and would arrange those in view to spark the users interest in the CC licenses just because of their look. | |||
As soon as a license has been chosen the software would provide an option for the most common blogging platforms (tumblr, | |||
soup.io, wordpress, facebook, google+, etc). In case the user choses a platform whose own license agreements for publishing | |||
material collide with a Creative Commons license it warns the user about arising difficulties concerning his rights. Through | |||
this methology we achieve our goal of creating interest in the CC model and are able to educate the user during his usual | |||
workflow. | |||
During the course we want to conduct a quantitive user study if there exists a particular interest in such a software. At the moment we concentrate on developing a testable prototype and invited our previous participants to take part in such a study. | |||
