Since my last post, World Blog Archive has personally contacted me to inform me that the terms have been changed. That's pretty accommodating! Here are the old terms:However, by posting your Content through the Service you automatically grant WorldBlogArchive a royalty-free, perpetual, irrevocable, non-exclusive worldwide license to (i) use, publish, translate, adapt, distribute, perform, and display the Content alone or as part of other works in any form, media, or technology whether now known or later developed, and to (ii) freely and fully sublicense such rights through single or multiple tiers of sublicensees.
Here are the new terms:
However, by posting your Content through the Service you automatically grant WorldBlogArchive a royalty-free, good until termination, non-exclusive worldwide license to use, publish, translate, adapt, distribute, perform, and display the Content alone or as part of other works in any form, media, or technology whether now known or later developed.
Greg (who seems to be running things over there) is very receptive, open to communication and responds to inquiries in a timely manner. He even left me and my readers a comment on the last post, addressing my concerns--which means he takes the time to follow inbound links and read what people have to say (hi, Greg!). That's very respectable and thorough. So if you're thinking about publishing through them, but have some questions or reservations, I highly recommend shooting him at email at greg(a)worldblogarchive.com.
