#1 is really the only concern for me, and it goes away pretty quickly once something is shipped.
#2 I used to worry about, but after working in the industry for 15 years, and specifically in the early stage startup/VC side of things for the last year and a half, I've concluded that ideas are worth very little. It's only an idea coupled with great execution that really counts. And that second part (great execution) is even harder than coming up with great ideas. While I'm no lawyer, I can't imagine #3 would be an issue for a design posted to a public forum who's specific purpose is to share ideas with other designers. ·Dave On Mon, Mar 16, 2009 at 12:24 AM, dave malouf <dave....@gmail.com> wrote: > > A few big issues that people have with galleries: > 1) Intellectual Property--I can't share what really doesn't belong > to me. > 2) Intellectual Property--I don't want to give away my best ideas > for free (not everyone is a believer that everything should be open > source, if anything) > 3) Intellectual Property--I don't want to be tainted by seeing other > people's ideas so if an IP legal battle ensues I won't be hit with > "stealing" and only be hit with late comer independent generation > (at worst). > > ________________________________________________________________ Welcome to the Interaction Design Association (IxDA)!
