Module five: What is the Triple Convergence ? The convergence of the ten flatters. They built the new platform that we all play and work on today. The affordable options for accessing the new flat world platform. We are no longer Limited in our access to information, or in options of sharing our opinions,desires, wishes,and dreams.  The second convergence is made up of everyone's creativity and their desire to work smarter not harder while making and saving money. The app world is a perfect show case of this, where else can you find a tool that will tell you the local weather, count your calories or your money or if you have an extra minute an app that will let you squish bugs. The Third Convergence is the ability for you to full fill a need,by the best most competitive resource around the world. Who was the exploiter or exploited,that is an intriguing question,that I could not see the answer to. The answer that I came up with was that the state of Indiana was letting their fear of change control them. If they would have taken a less emotional approach to the task at hand they could have figured out a way to save the 8 million in taxes, while encouraging and fostering the hiring and training locals, that the India based company had planned to use.this would be a double bonus for the people of Indiana.  What is intellectual property and why is it important? Intellectual property are the products of the creativity. They are so valued be cause they are the result of the creators hard work, while most people want to share their inventions, they also want to get created and composition. If people in general start to feel that they Don't get due created for their hard work they will lose their desire to share freely. We will end up in a controlling ridged environment.

  1. Nice Essay! I was wondering a couple of things though. 1st do you really think it was fear of outsourcing that caused the state of Indiana to hurt themselves or was it stupidity?
    Also, music is considered intellectual property. Do you personally download music for free, or have you ever copied a cd or dvd? Also what about youtube? I can watch what ever music video i want whenever i want for free. Does this fringe on the musicians right to collect money for their intellectual property?
