Are you pumping out one incredible idea after another, only to find someone else making one of “your” ideas happen first? Case in point: Who really created the internet? Inventor and author Kevin O’Connor tells us the story: “Al Gore didn’t invent the Internet. I did. Let me tell you about it. It was the late 1980s, and it was clear that the first company I helped start, ICC – which made it possible to link personal computers to mainframes – would suffer a long, lingering death. There was nothing wrong with what our product did; it was just that the technology was in the process of changing…I was wondering what we could do about it when I stumbled across an idea. Why don’t we develop a smarter terminal, one that would word with any computer system and take advantage of the power of the PC?...A system that you could communicate with directly, one that would let you link to anyone else who was part of it. This new terminal would support graphics, menus, scripting language, pictures and more. The idea, in short, was the World Wide Web. As you know, despite my brilliant insight, I didn’t invent the Web. But the experience of coming up with the concept taught me…that ideas are cheap. Once you come up with one, you need to do something with it.”* Don’t let something like this happen to you!
