I have lost count of how many times I have heard the statement "If it's on the internet, it's free to use." The truth is, copyright vests with the creator at the time of creation in a fixed format. No special registrations are necessary. This applies to all content: from photographs to books, artwork to websites (like this one). All content is protected by copyright as soon as it is set in a particular format. It's not copyrighted when it's sitting in your head (as an idea),
