It’s “maple bacon” coffee, actually, so it tastes like pancakes and meat? I don’t know. The company that makes it only sells it through a “coffee of the month” club that, rumor has it, is very difficult to cancel (and then you just get bombarded with unwanted coffee). Which is unfortunate, because the same company makes a Bananas Foster coffee that I am uber-curious about.

Michael, it’d be pretty satisfying to do that, but I ain’t no rat.
Thanks for your thoughts.

I wished you had used her real name. The more we do to ferret out the rotten and stupid people the better off we will be as a profession. PR and journalists have proven they can work together folks. There’s no need to be sneaky snakes.

@Chris @Rachel

I was afraid for a moment that there really was an AP image there. You are allowed to include the thumbnail image from Getty via Daylife. As long as you keep a hyperlink on the thumbnail image to point to the Daylife site and keep the proper attribution. We have a deal that enables that.

That’s why those images are so small (150px by the longest edge).

@Chris: yes we do pull Flickr CC images too, you should be seeing them

bye

P.S., where I said “AP” above, substitute “Getty”…

@Andraz,

Hi! I’m loving this insta-response thing.

As I do not have a subscription to the AP, I’m pretty sure they would be unhappy if I used their content.

I haven’t noticed Zemanta pulling in creative-commons licensed Flickr images. Is that a source it pulls from as well?

Hi Andraz — As the license from AP says, I believe that Zemanta’s license-detection algorithms are wrong. For example, right now there’s an AP image up there with a raw caption that includes “ONLINE OUT” — and if you’re familiar with AP at all, that’s self-explanatory.
