Please allow me to introduce myself as an inventor from Taiwan. Not particularly good in any language, but I tried to explain what I have been contemplating at my website http://p2pMOU.com

Asked: In a world with ubiquitous WiFi, what would I like to see?

I’d like to see Teacher helping Learner via Skype, make his/her fair share of living via Skype and gets paid in Skype Dollars.

I’d like to see Google surfer who clicked the SkypeMe (Click-to-call) button gets paid by the Advertiser, for contributing his/her eyeballs and eardrums, and paid in Skype Dollars.

I’d like to see Click-to-Call and Pay-per-Clock work seamlessly. Is it a good idea or a bad one?

Anyone wishes to lend his helping hands? We pay Skype Dollars once project is proven business-worthy … ;o)

As for patents, it makes no sense not to have them, unless you only plan on using other people’s ideas. There is no need to incur such a huge risk. The courts will not let you sell such 1M routers, and can be forced to pay dearly for every single router that is using somebody else’s ideas – and many companies have gone bankrupt because of this. Unfortunately, this is the legal way things work – and for a reason.

Better to keep everyone happy and reward the ideas. I would never use what somebody else has patented without a friendly agreement. Just my 2c.

I don’t believe companies will steal your ideas (or those of the Fon community). Many ideas Fon implemented were out there and tried already.

I’m against patents also, because they prevent by law your and my right to creative expression. Why in history are many inventions being invented around the same time or reinvented after hundreds/thousends of years?

What can Fon do for me when I’ve got a good idea/solution, because in you posting I only read what I can do for Fon.
