Post 3- Week 2's Lecture

I thought this week's lecture was very fascinating, particularly when we discussed recognizing different types of intellectual property and how it can vary in form, e.g. trademarks, logos, copyrights, trade secrets, etc. It was interesting learning how these patents can sometimes even be the reason for mergers and acquisitions, like with Google buying Motorola. I will expand on this in my Youtube video blog by the end of this week, at http://www.youtube.com/user/MrNoahHandel/

  1. Good point about the merger and acquisition and especially in terms of Motorola and Google. Good point about the importance between intellectual property.

  2. Good move on Google's part moving into the phone industry. Not sure what would have been the price / quality of an iPhone if the only competition was Blackberry and Windows

  3. It was! I was really surprised that there is a limit to the size of phones, because of a patent in the US...
