  1. is the other way around on Bing Now Nearly As Good As Google — Says Microsoft · · Score: 1

    bing is not getting better, google is getting worst simple as that... with so many programmers here how come we are not building our own search engine, I just don't get it.

  2. anonymous != bad on Anonymous Creates Its Own Social Network · · Score: 1

    I don't think that anonymous means a bad thing, but I do think that the days of centralised stuff should end. Everybody is just moving from one central problem to another, and I exclude me on this one, even while apparently I already am on g+ even if I have never signed there, all I have is a gmail account which I am closing for obvious reasons. It is worth to rescue the idea of a decentralised network that will respect your privacy, not demand your full details only to sell advertising, yes the platform may be very cool and all, but there are limits. I am proposing to the anonymous group to use our communication protocol which allows you to exchange messages with any platform in an (if you want) anonymous way, or 'not demanding every single detail about you' way. http://s13.zetaboards.com/anonplus/topic/6803256/ or http://wirez.zenopen.org/ if you want to look With all the power of open source why is everybody just running like crazy to the new 'control/restrict me' website? I just don't get people.

  3. Re:Open Patents on Ask Slashdot: Open Patent Licenses? · · Score: 1

    Hello Mark, great to see you here.

    I did look into your project, but I was not very clear about how it works or if it was updated.

    I will get in touch with you and see if we can cooperate.

    Thanks.

  4. Re:Hooks on Ask Slashdot: Open Patent Licenses? · · Score: 1

    thanks, see that is one example, it could be nice to have those things registered, not with the same intention as a patent, but it can even be a great way to learn stuff and make better software.

  5. Re:Hard to do. on Ask Slashdot: Open Patent Licenses? · · Score: 1

    There are many many of them, the difference is that they are not registered, big companies like hp will patent ever the way they fold a paper when the contents are important, open source companies don't. But take for instance bittorrent, this system is great and I remember a few years back when M$ 'invented' a peer-2-peer system to distribute their updates and where claiming it was their own invention, even when they where reminded of bittorrent. Same thing here, I don't know if /. does, but if it was a company like google, they would probably be getting patents on every single algorithms or the way they receive 'scoops' from the readers. There are many many many innovations that come from the open source community beginning with the distributed contribution model in which most applications are developed (there is an article here about how torvalds is responsible for this)

  6. Great advice on Ask Slashdot: Open Patent Licenses? · · Score: 1

    Thanks to everyone for the great input, what I am getting is that we can be fine with just publishing it and having some piece of mind that our innovations (if there are any) will be protected. presidenteloc: our business model will be based in Costa Rica I guess, which is where we are located. I don't think that we can talk about just one legislation, which is part of the problem here, the us may change the rules, but what about the rest of the world? UE I guess will not give much problems, but there should be a better way to protect stuff. kimvette: that was part of the question actually, where would a clerk like this look? Is there a pool of this innovations somewhere? The links provided here are great, but they don't really provide a solution for new innovations, they are working (as far as I was able to see) on current registered innovations in some countries (us mostly), that is actually part of the questions: Do I HAVE to register my inventions? can't I just do something like a GPL license, include it in my code and live goes on. bennomatic: I will start documenting everything, I will try to provide a platform or repository for this cases, and I hope that it becomes useful for others someday.
