Inside Oracle’s cloak-and-dagger political war with Google - Recode

Inside Oracle’s cloak-and-dagger political war with Google - Recode:



Google is far from perfect but to say Oracle is the protector of the masses or that they have done more good for industry and consumers is nothing short of laughable.

This smells of paid propaganda.



HAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!

Microsoft Internet Explorer 10 Design: 10 Essential Features - Enterprise Applications - News & Reviews - eWeek.com

Microsoft Internet Explorer 10 Design: 10 Essential Features - Enterprise Applications - News & Reviews - eWeek.com I think this is great IF..... If M$ can make their installs as unobtrusive as Chrome. Otherwise, it is a big pain. The IE9 forced me to reboot. OMG....for a browser install. I am not sure what is being done to require this but I suspect the value add for the reboot is just not there.

Microsoft patent division taking cash from at least 5 Android vendors

Microsoft patent division taking cash from at least 5 Android vendors I love some of Microsoft products. However, the patent system is broken. It becomes barrier innovation and small companies. Google and Android is not small but it is success is largely due to the free availability of it to the masses. The masses ability to review, critique and contribute and then use. Just like other products, java, linux, etc.... I suspect the arguments will sound like those of the drug industry. We invested so much we must protect our investment. As we watch big Pharma die a slow death from protectionism and gaming the patent system. A company that wants to make money needs to add VALUE not put up white picket fences. I provide services to my employers. If I put up picket fences to protect my JOB, I would be fired as soon as possible. We need to fire this type of action. It is friction to innovation not lubricant.

Microsoft loses i4i appeal, faces Word injunction in three weeks

I just finished reading this article and it grinds on me. I cannot speak to the details of this patent but on the surface it looks to me like many software patents. They fail on the Non-Obvious test. Maybe it is because I understand software but what amazes me is far different from my wife who is in the medical field and even further from those I meet who are less educated. This does not even come close to impressing me!! I am not a M$ groupie as they have many unworthy patents too. The patent system is broke in this this area as well as others. This is not Dave over Goliath. It is Dave leveraging a broken system over Goliath. The same system Goliath leverages to maintain competitive advantages. Wrong is Wrong even when Dave does it.
