[FC-discuss] corporate monopoly is a form of sharing

[Eliot P.]

Hi, i joined after reading NYT publ. Did we mention corporations themselves are sharing business domain specific standards in their ecommerce (shopping carts), and in other interoperability i.e., insurance, medical records, business objects, finance, medical, telecommunications, manufacturing, life sciences.. this taken from Enterprise Application Integration - A Wiley Tech Brief,by Ruth, Maginnis, and Brown publ. Wiley and Sons 2001.  The industry standards allow their common procedures to interact with regulatory agencies, research and development i.e., universities, government, public interest groups etc.  Most of the forms that services take are in a messaging format known as CORBA information management services, which allow for some authentication and security.

Sharing does make working together smarter.

Also suggest that when sociologists look at behavior, which is not upheld for a license value, same as it is where .. Someone has nice taste which makes them good to hang with ... they don't get a copyright, and make others pay.  People say they are "stakeholders" but they are really sharing and not letting others get into their game..
