Can you imagine? Granted Henry Ford was not the first guy to come up with a car, but I am playing to the popular imagination here.

There are some form factors that can not, should not be patented.

The PC Was A Category And Could Not Have Been Patented

If you think about it the designers at Nokia were light years ahead of Steve Jobs when it came to the idea of a smartphone, or a tablet.

This is a system gone berserk.

Wow. Point and click.

The first time I installed Disqus it was still easy, but there were steps involved. You had to grab the code and go paste it in just the right place in your blog's template code. Not hard to do but I can imagine it being intimidating to those who don't know any code at all.

This time it was so so easy, as easy as clicking on a link at the Google search results page.

Wow. I am impressed.

I promptly added it to all three of my blogs: Netizen, Barackface, and Democracy For Nepal.
