If anyone has a blog of that nature, please let me know. Every once in a while I look for Korea-related blogs with content I can put up on the wiki, resulting in pages like the following:

http://wiki.galbijim.com/Scoop_and_Flix_-_the_offspring_of_OhmyNews%3F

I suspect a lot of people haven't given much thought to using a CC license for their blog, so it might be a good idea if you don't mind your work being used elsewhere as long as there's attribution.

You can post your blog on this thread if it applies, or send me a pm. In exchange, you get pages on the wiki linking back to your blog, and we get more information on the wiki for minimal effort. Everybody wins. Posts have to be informative though. They don't have to be scholarly works, but need information that somebody might want to search for. Recipes are fine, restaurant reviews are fine, politics are fine. Your date last weekend isn't fine.

Sound good? See http://www.creativecommons.org for more info on how those licenses work.

I don't understand half of what you said.. but, my blog "Global Security, Economics and Politics," http://superacidjax.blogspot.com has regular writing about Korean trade/economics (especially the Korea-US FTA) as well as North Korea articles.

If it is what you want, use it. Otherwise, excuse my ignorance!

Yeah, that's the king of thing I'm looking for, thanks. As for the copyright, here's what I mean:

http://ethanzuckerman.com/blog/?p=890

If you go to the very bottom you can see a logo that says "some rights reserved":



It's a license like the one on Wikipedia, differing in some minor aspects but the same in the way that it lets other people use it without explicit permission as long as the source is given. Since you've given permission I'll put all the posts up related to South Korea, but if you don't mind other sites doing the same thing (and bringing more traffic at the same time) you might want to do the same thing with your blog as well. Then it'll show up on the creative commons search engine too.
