More evidence that Google will eventually rule the world through awesomeness.

You may be asking, "Willard, how can I make my blog as awesome as yours by posting pictures without getting sued by somebody?"
Well, you can't. You can't make your blog as awesome as mine. I've filled the quotient for how awesome blogs are allowed to be and, like the Highlander, there can be only one.
Thanks to one of Google's newer features, however, you can post pics without worrying about the legal ramifications or trying to argue fair use. While I think fair use law will protect you in most situations, when you're unsure, or simply don't want to risk it, you can use Google's advanced image search feature.
As you can see from this screenshot here:

click to super-size.

there is now a feature within advanced image search option that allows you to search specifically for images that can be re-posted anywhere free of charge. You can even search for ones that will be used to create a profit for you. Neato, eh?
Now go, copy and paste to your heart's content.
