A picture might be worth a thousand words, but if a particular photo that is copyrighted is posted up without prior consent from the owner, then there are legal implications to think of – which would certainly result in more than a thousand words, of course. Getting original, non-copyrighted photos might be a tricky thing these days, but Getty Images intends to give a leg up to the masses. After all, they happen to be the world’s largest photos service, and in what seems to be an extremely early Christmas, Getty Images has announced that they will be freeing up approximately 35 million photos from its collection that spans more than a century, allowing websites and bloggers to post them up without staring down at a lawsuit.

Google’s clout in the search environment is second to none, and this has led to online retailers doing their level best to make sure that on the very first page of Google search results, their brand would be represented in an accurate manner.
