Today however in an ever increasing world of intense competition, fast paced economies, and layoffs, people aren't that inclined to share anymore. We have copyright today to stop people from infringing on our work. I have nothing against copyrights... I do feel its is good.
However I have always believed that your ideas could do much more if others were given an opportunity to tinker with them. Not that you are good...... i do believe you are, however sharing that expertise of yours with a different mind would definitely give your idea/thought a different perspective. Now just imagine if that could exponentiate!
There would also be reservations say if a cure for Aids was found with your idea, i know... you may also want some credit for it. And what if I told you that, all this can be possible at the same time. For those of you who do generate work that is copyright ( do you know that the moment you generate something its already copyrighted to you?) like say a blog like this or an essay, poem , story, an mp3 song, a video you shot etc. If you create any of these and you would like to share it to the world and they share it again provided they give you credit or they do not make make money out off it here is a solution Creative Commons.
You can get a license like the one on the bottom right of this blog that means you are ready to share your ideas/work with the world. Remember the world is in need of giants to give shoulders for it to stand on.
