I googled 23 Things, Web 2.0 and found the link to this site: http://plcmcl2-things.blogspot.com/
This link proves that the 23 Things is modified from someone else's original work. Since the creative commons teaches us that an idea cannot be copyrighted, then that makes this OK. Our 23 things is completely different from theirs.
It's only a problem if you copy someone's exact work. I will use Creative Commons licensing in the future to ensure that my students understand copyright laws. I will also use the concept to create activities for my class. The 23 things was a great activity to help us learn about Web 2.0 tools. I am glad someone decided to take the idea and build from it for our class. I can apply the same principle to develop new activities for my students in the future.
