before complaining about someone stealing your idea you should notice the 'free copyright' link on the left. The free copyright option gives you a copyright for your idea...
anyway before you post you should copyright it first if its a 'crazy' idea Posted by CAHEK at November 01, 2006 12:06:23 MT |

Although all of us have come up with ideas at one time or another, we all would profit by thinking about the ink we place on paper before actually doing it. Legally filed copyrights often can "steal" the idea without ever putting any effort into the concept by the person who has the means to perfect it. A copyright, also could prevent the development of enhancements to an idea because it's author is too scared that someone might "still" their work. My family experienced this first hand when my great grandfather on my mother's side designed and built a piece of machinery to solve a problem for a farmer. Once he sold the equipment to put bread on his family's table, he lost all "right" to his invention. His name was MacPhetridge and he sold his machine to a farmer called McCormick. Even though he had the solution to the problem, the design, and used his knowledge to implement needed features into what he built, he no longer had the prototype. Someone else had the idea to promote it and had the means and could afford to copyright it. With all that said and indeed recognizing the Free Copyright clause to ideas posted herein, I must agree with "D" with his original post, as my family can attest.

You might want to learn how to spell, D.
- It's "steal," not "still." - It's "I'll," not "Ill." - It's "that's," not "thats." - It's "there's," not "theres." - It's "copyrights," not "copy rights." Or as you put it, "Duh." Posted by DB at April 25, 2008 11:31:06 MT |
