​Protecting copyrights in today's wild Internet era is getting tougher and tougher. But for photographer Scott D. Smith, it's a matter of survival -- which is why he's fought for months to get country radio station 92.5 The Wolf to pay for allegedly stealing more than twenty photos from a Jason Aldean concert and using them for a week.

Unfortunately for him, the CEO of the station's parent company says it's not going to happen.

Tim Tebow.

​No, Tim Tebow is not playing in today's Super Bowl. But somehow, he's getting as much, if not more, attention than most of the Giants and Patriots, especially on Twitter. And why not, since Katy Perry name-checked him at a concert last night, Katharine McPhee shared a photo of the pair, and he's being romantically linked, kinda, to Maria Menounos. Just plain folks are sending love and hate tweets to The Chosen One, too. See ten samples below.

Tweets, pics below.

​YouTube users began sharing videos of Colorado's ongoing snowstorm hours before daybreak today.

So you go to Google, ignore the weird bar over the logo, and type in "Velcro" and "Wiki." A Wikipedia link appears, and a click brings it up -- but it vanishes an instant later. Oh my God!

After all, his iPhone 4 case, which he's hawking at the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas, was prominently featured on NPR -- even though one commentator deems the overabundance of such cases as the bane of the entire event.

Tim Tebow.

​Tim Tebow's latest miracle win over the Pittsburgh Steelers caused Twitter to erupt like Mount Vesuvius, setting a new record of 9,420 tweets per second. Suck it, Bin Laden raid and Steve Jobs's death.

Bill Maher.

​Three games ago, Tim Tebow's streak of late-game miracles looked bound for legend. Now, even true believers are left to wonder if his success was a mirage.

No wonder comedian Bill Maher has been kicking the Chosen One when he's down -- on one knee, and on the scoreboard.

​Neighbors can be scary, shrill, suffocating things. They listen to country radio, smoke on your shared patio, leave passive-aggressive notes about how you parked your Yaris, and borrow eggs almost as often as they "borrow" your copy of the New York Times. But no matter how often you interact with, mock and attempt to retaliate against them, you probably don't know them. Nextdoor.com is trying to change that.
