456 "We began the project intending to explore how creators, organizations, and "
457 "businesses make money to sustain what they do when they share their work "
458 "using Creative Commons licenses. Our goal was not to identify a formula for "
459 "business models that use Creative Commons but instead gather fresh ideas and "
460 "dynamic examples that spark new, innovative models and help others follow "
461 "suit by building on what already works. At the onset, we framed our "

5033 "software. Originally, the software was an in-house resource for his "

10097 "As museums create a digital presence for themselves and put up digital "
10098 "representations of their collection online, there’s frequently a worry that "
10099 "it will lead to a drop in actual physical visits. For the Rijksmuseum, this "
10100 "has not turned out to be the case. Lizzy told us the Rijksmuseum used to get "
10101 "about one million visitors a year before closing and now gets more than two "
10102 "million a year. Making the collection available online has generated "
10103 "publicity and acts as a form of marketing. The Creative Commons mark "
10104 "encourages reuse as well. When the image is found on protest leaflets, milk "
10105 "cartons, and children’s toys, people also see what museum the image comes "
10106 "from and this increases the museum’s visibility."

11286 "TeachAIDS is a labor of love for founder and CEO Piya Sorcar, who earns a "
11287 "salary of one dollar per year from the nonprofit. The project grew out of "
11288 "research she was doing while pursuing her doctorate at Stanford University. "
11289 "She was reading reports about India, noting it would be the next hot zone of "
11290 "people living with HIV. Despite international and national entities pouring "
11291 "in hundreds of millions of dollars on HIV-prevention efforts, the reports "
11292 "showed knowledge levels were still low. People were unaware of whether the "
11293 "virus could be transmitted through coughing and sneezing, for instance. "
11294 "Supported by an interdisciplinary team of experts at Stanford, Piya "
11295 "conducted similar studies, which corroborated the previous research. They "
11296 "found that the primary cause of the limited understanding was that HIV, and "
11297 "issues relating to it, were often considered too taboo to discuss "
11298 "comprehensively. The other major problem was that most of the education on "
11299 "this topic was being taught through television advertising, billboards, and "
11300 "other mass-media campaigns, which meant people were only receiving bits and "
11301 "pieces of information."
