Building on the Past by Justin Cone / CC BY

Over the next few months, we will be talking to users and creators of CC images, text, and data as part of updating the usability of CC tools in 2018. For our purposes, we are defining CC usability as both enhancing the experience of sharing and collaborating with CC’s current toolset, and conceiving of new tools and features that unlock creativity and knowledge content.

You can read more about our process and plan here.

To get involved, we would like to invite you to submit a session proposal to the User-centered Commons track of the 2018 CC Global Summit in Toronto (April 13-15).

We will also be hosting an evening of drinks and discussion on February 15 in Los Angeles to explore how Creative Commons and open tools can increase the impact of emerging and immersive media and technologies for social good. You can learn more and RSVP for that event here.

We’ll keep you updated with major developments through our blog, Slack, and social media. In the meantime, you can ping me (jane at creativecommons dot org) with any questions, and follow me @janedaily.

Here’s to an exciting year ahead!
