About Us

PlayTheWeb.org is an ad hoc group of Web professionals who are interested in promoting the idea of “Web Play” through the ethical reuse of content on the Web. We want to report, comment, and promote Technologies, Techniques, Applications, and Business models that move this idea forward. 

By ethical we mean reusing content while maintaining respect to the original rights of the copyright holder(s). ”Respect” is intentionally an ambiguous word left to interpretation of those engaged in the creative process. 

One of the core initiatives for PlayTheWeb.org is to support the development of a new open content attribution format in order to help content creators and application developers publish where and from whom reused content is being sourced.
