Every now and then I publish some source code/sample/snippet, etc in my blog and I'd like people to download and use it freely But I'd want my contact info remain in the files' headers wherever my code is used. Something like:

/* My super cool open source thingy

But since I'm not a native english-speaker, I'd appreciate if anyone shows a good template with proper phrases. P.S. I'm not really interested in licensing my codes under GNU, MIT and prefer a REAL simple custom license with a few lines.
