Have you ever thought of some new gadget or device but failed to act on it then finding out soon after that someone actually built your idea and made millions? It has happened to me more than once.
The latest was an idea I had a few years ago to have a mat where you could set down your blackberry, cell phone, i-pod, laptop or any other battery powered device and have them recharge just by setting them there. Of course, I didn't do anything about it and lo and behold, someone builds it!!! (http://www.technologyreview.com/Infotech/19894/?a=f)
The point of this rambling post is that technology developments move so fast that any good idea will likely come to many minds at the same time. Succes typically comes to first movers.
I have more ideas and hope to act on them before someone else does. In the meantime, I have to go. My laptop battery is dying and I dont have a power mat.
