Product Ideas and Improvements and Inventions

by  • 

Being in the tech industry for years now I’ve come across many, many products and owning and reviewing them I’ve come up with many ideas for new products and ways to improve other products. I’ve probably forgotten more than I can remember actually, but the point is what do you do with them?

Years ago I looked into the whole patent and invention thing for ideas but it’s just too damn expensive for the average person like me to afford.

I don’t know what to do with the ideas I have as I can’t afford to pursue them.

I wonder how many other people out there are in the same situation, they’ve got great ideas for new things or ways to improve others but just can’t do anything about it.

Sure I know the process, create the prototype etc and show it to companies to possibly get backers, but I can’t afford to even do that honestly. I just don’t have the disposable income needed.

Our patent system is horrible as I’m sure everyone knows, it needs fixed.

I have to wonder how many great ideas out there never come to fruition because people just can’t afford to pursue it?!

I know there are those ‘invention’ companies out there that promise to help you get your invention created, but they’re a scam as we all know. You end losing your rights to the product and someone else makes the money from your idea. So that’s not a way to go surely.

I could post my ideas here, but they would be stolen surely and someone would claim them to be their own. So they just stay in my head I guess. It’s sad but true, it’s the world we live in, someone is always out there just waiting to steal someone else’s ideas.

(Sort of off-topic but I would love to write a book or two, I’ve actually got ideas for a few of them, and I thought about posting them here, or at maybe even writing the book here on my site. Sadly I’d be afraid someone would take it, yes we live in that kind of world and it’s a shame really. It’s a place where nothing is really yours because someone can just steal it from you and say it’s theirs. It’s happened on Amazon already many, many times with their self-publishing system.)

Oh well, that’s just some random thoughts I had floating around in my head that I wanted to get out..

Here’s another one, I got this call last night on my cell phone which really pisses me off as my cell is not listed anywhere publically.

It’s apparently some legal company or whatever after people who took whatever drug and hoping to get you as a client.

Just go away please…

Scams / Phishing/ Mail

Scammer: 1-323-989-0990

It’s been a while since I’ve posted any of these, I still get them and they annoy me but there’s just too many of them.

We’re on the federal and state do not call lists and it doesn’t seem to make a difference.

This number, 1-323-989-0990, has called many times and hung up on my answering machine. last night about 9pm they called and I answered it. They said my wife signed up for education information to go back to school. Not true, she’s a registered nurse who just graduated about 2 yrs ago. I asked to be removed from their list and the lady was rude and said she was not in the United States so they didn’t have to follow the do not call list.

It’s funny because I looked up the number and it says Los Angeles California is where it’s from. It’s also funny that the lady, who claimed to not be in the United States, spoke perfect English, no accent or nothing so it’s hard to believe she was not in the USA, but of course it is possible.

The best part is that she said she wouldn’t remove me from the list because it didn’t apply to her company. That’s the first time I’ve been flat refused before. It’s funny.

Oh well.. they can all die as far as I’m concerned, I’m sick of all the calls and hang ups on my machine.

"We are a mobile society, we take quite a bit with us and that includes laptops which aren’t exactly heavy duty and durable. Let’s face it, accidents happen, so I figure why not be prepared and at least protect your electronics with a decent bag or case? Today for review I have the Pakuma Choroka K2 laptop messenger bag that will fit laptops up to 15.4” in size. This laptop isn’t inexpensive, but it’s not overly expensive either, it sells for about $50 and I think it’s well worth it. The K2 bag features the Pakuma Cocoon system to protect your laptop, which uses memory foam to keep your laptop from getting damaged. The bag also has plenty of room for everything you need for the day, and there’s an abundance or pockets to help keep things organized and separated. So read on to learn more… "
