Owning Ideas…. What an Idea

The Guardian came out with a good piece today; it questions whether the notation of being able to patent ideas as intellectual property is such a good idea. For example Amazon has licensed out the patented idea of letting costumers review products on their website. Google has patented the online ad and Microsoft is trying to patent XML. I’m sire that Ebay would just love to be able to patent the idea of “online auctions.”

How far are we going to go? Come on lets face it, no one can own an idea let alone patent one. Your thoughts are your own and so are mine. Got a good idea? Good, then use it. And if someone comes along to cut in on your action then too bad. That the free market place for you. It truly is survival of the fittest.
