RE: Will Disney's side chain, called "Dragonchain", one day replace the blockchain?
Thanks for the heads up! Not surprising though, Microsoft is constantly trying to catch up with google and facebook because they want to be able to own everything too :p
MMMmmm Cookies! New Privacy policy is we are the cookie monster and all of your cookies belong to us!
I get why they do it, but its a bit extreme , especially in the case of facebook and google , facebook are a market monster and will just do good business , same as google , they will expand and buy out the small fry , Microsoft is no better, they are the same as google , albeit a little old fashioned and always trying to catch up, forgetting they made the playground :D , but yes I don't like their policy, first it was a rush to secure the proprietary sector and get as much as possible off linux, then there were the apple wars :D for the private sector and afterwards they have trailed off to mobile , it's a shame they've went with the mainstream , rather than continue to innovate and push hard, they just do their yearly program , buy a big company once , push out some windows every 3-4 years , get the business side , jack the competition , use your leverage to buy some big company, so yeah so far if it fits in their marketing plan it will be bought, Skype, Linkedin , gone to MSoft , Google is a bigger beast tho , they have more ongoing projects and with all the information they've collected must be pretty well off, patents, documents, emails, whole libraries, so their tech departments will really focus on "innovations" basically they are a tech conglomerate so far , MSoft is the code with their past libraries and work in the last 20 years, but they are tech too, just phones mainly, or so we are told :D
And facebook is way past its inception, kind of wish they would have gone a different route , but they want to grow and have their own millions of billions so marketing and marketing :D
b the way , how would you like to get sidetracked, there is a "contest" for a tribute piece
reward is 15 steem , but it's distributed for the winners and there isn't much of a ranking system , either there will be two winners with 10 and 5 , or more with less, anyway just a heads up :)
I completely agree, it is extreme. It is like the jealous neighbor who realizes there house is suddenly small than the person next door! Facebook just accidentally made a perfect business model and google has been slowly but steadily been growing to take over!
Oh yeah, Microsoft and apple essentially stole their best ideas from linux and then copyrighted them :(
Yeah Microsoft gets jealous of the ipod and make their own ZUNE. Then they get jealous of android and iPhone and make their windows phone. Always trying to "catch up to compete"!
Yeah that is essentially their marketing plan! completely mainstream, haven't created anything new in a long while because they still have a monopoly on the computer market!
Yeah, google follows a similar business model except they have "innovation" teams like you are saying!
It is such a different world that these huge companies live in!
Yeah I will participate! Is it your contest or someone else? Where is the link to it?
nice , many of those I wasn't aware of, for the contest I'm not hosting any, so far I have to pick up my posts and make something out , contribute a tribute to win 15 steem :)
Yeah, neither was I until recently! You'll get there, it just takes a little bit time. Awesome, I will check out the contest now! Thanks
