The Battle of Silicon Valley: Martial Law vs. Technology

Deconstructing: Apple WWDC 2012

Last week Apple held their WWDC event in Yuerba Buena and unveiled a lot of new stuff but with a noticeable lack of detail leaving many iGadget hungry people dissatisfied. I’ve said many times how I believe the Apple audience is fast becoming the largest group of spoiled…

Innovation Upheld But Not Protected

Much has been made of the controversy surrounding iOS devices and their competitors. Has Samsung stolen from Apple’s design cues? Did Eric Schmidt blatantly steal the smart phone approach from Jobs when serving on Apple’s board? Can Apple even patent things that the…
