In the Netherlands we have a discussion going on Google Docs being used by 2.0 minded government personnel, not knowing they don't own their government documents, but Google does. And Google is very clear about that in their conditions. Cheers, Eric Hi Mark, just wanted to say how I love this blogpost on archiving twitterstuff.

Being in government for so long, I am so used to not having any feeling of ownership or rights or secrecy on or about what I do that I guess I approached it all from that perspective. But the average person has a much greater expectation of privacy. So it is good to make people aware of this. As an additional element - just a couple weeks ago, the virtual world of Second Life released a clarification on their TOS indicating anyone has the right to take photos or create machinima of someone's virtual creation unless that person has specifically stated this is not allowed.
