The Google Image Search Clipart Ad
Is it useful to save the emails you receive from google alert?
Do you still write poems?
How do I message you on twitter like you've been doing with those other people.
To answer your questions. I find it useful to save emails. It makes it easy for me to search cases that I've handled and see if a site has come up before. Though you have to use title or URL, it works well for that purpose. Also, you can search for all of the cases of a particular work if you wanted, so long as you know the phrase you used.
Also, I do still write poetry, though not as often as I once did. I haven't been putting them online though as my writing has been taking strange turns lately.
As far as messaging me on Twitter, depends on the client that you're using. If you're using the Web site, just go to my profile and click "Message Plagiarismtoday"
Hope that helps!
Justin: That is an interesting strategy, has it worked for you? I also doubt that putting your poetry into Youtube increases the risk, since there is no easy copy/paste, people are less likely to reuse it. However, they are also not searchable. It's a give and take deal.
Noel: No, I haven't, I'm bookmarking the site now. It's an interesting idea but one of the perks of email is the ability to tag and file it (not that I'm actually doing any of that) I'm not sure how well that would work here.
Still, a very neat site and a very cool idea.
RS: I try to keep my literature separate from my writing here for a lot of reasons, would it be acceptable if I emailed you a link?
It may lead to other discussions not quite relevant to the focus of this blog. I understand.
