Automatic Writing and the Problem of Ideas.

Automatic Writing and the Problem of Ideas.: " Perhaps the simplest and most obvious of these, actually gives a great deal of credit to the entire human race:

If the idea was any good, someone would have already thought of it.
The objection seemingly has some substance however if anyone really believed that this single idea is true, then one would have to simply wonder how did people ever come up with: Television, digital photography, and helicopters. "

Automatic Writing and the Problem of Ideas.

Automatic Writing and the Problem of Ideas.: "Automatic Writing and the Problem of Ideas.
The problem with ideas is that they do not relent. When someone comes up with an idea, lets just use the most common example, and idea with which one could make money. What happens is that the person who has the idea, naturally thinks its great, they have a great deal of enthusiasm. However, and this is a big however, in most cases the idea simply can not be put into effect alone, without someone else’s help or resources. Therein lies the rub!

Sales, the transfer of enthusiasm. The problem is that no one else is likely to share the same enthusiasm as the one who came up with the idea. Instead, you will get some version of what has commonly become known as the person who plays the role of devils advocate."

Apple sends ‘take down’ notices to cracked iOS apps creator AppTrackr | 9to5Mac | Apple Intelligence: "make the leap and crack down on cracked iOS applications.

Apple sends ‘take down’ notices to cracked iOS apps creator AppTrackr | 9to5Mac | Apple Intelligence: "AppTrackr is the most popular marketplace for downloading cracked iOS applications. The company announced in a blog post, via Installous, that Apple began sending “take down” notices over cracked applications and have been scraping AppTrackr’s links looking for infractions (via iJailbreak). To combat Apple’s wrath, the crew at AppTrackr have moved several of their servers offshore to countries without copyright laws and have added CAPATCHA code to all outbound links. AppTrackr will now place an ad on the CAPATCHA page to pay for moving servers."

Official Google Blog: More wood behind fewer arrows

Official Google Blog: More wood behind fewer arrows: " explained that we’re prioritizing our product efforts. As part of that process, we’ve decided to wind down Google Labs. While we’ve learned a huge amount by launching very early prototypes in Labs, we believe that greater focus is crucial if we’re to make the most of the extraordinary opportunities ahead.

In many cases, this will mean ending Labs experiments—in others we’ll incorporate Labs products and technologies into different product areas. And many of the Labs products that are Android apps today will continue to be available on Android Market. We’ll update you on our progress via the Google Labs website."

It’s why we recently decided to shut down some products, and turn others into features of existing products."

SOPA/PIPA « Hashemian Blog: "Here comes another attack on the free and democratic way of life.

the SOPA/PIPA bill sponsored by congressman Lamar Smith is about to be voted on by the legislators. On the surface, the goal is to protect copyrights and intellectual property rights on the Internet.

In reality this law is created to bring the Internet under complete control and censorship of the US government. In other words any site can be blocked and any site owner or user can be charged for almost any reasons"

Collaborative Partnerships | IP Daily.biz

Collaborative Partnerships | IP Daily.biz: "Non-responsiveness is a very important concept because it may (as it does in my case) assume that there is some sort of “pre-existing” relationship between you (as the person who is proposing a venture or a plan) and the intended recipients. On who always interprets non-responsiveness as a sign of total disinterest, may need to re-evaluate the follow up technique which he is utilizing.

While the presentation which will follow this static page, may seem to be very specific in its scope, the method also intends to display an essential element of any business proposal based on the expected level of expertise in the field of the prospects who the innovator is hoping to recruit as interested and active participants in his or her venture."
