Ideaprints - 9 Signals Your Brain Was All Over a Creative Idea

The #Ideachat group discussed idea ownership and the impact of others borrowing your creative ideas. It was agreed that owning an idea in the world of social media means being able to point to your first use and predominant sharing of it. The notion of leaving your ideaprints on an idea was introduced as a way of indicating that your brain touched the idea at some point. There are various ways to do this, including legal protections, developing a unique name, authoring content about the idea, and licensing it to others. The conversation then turned to how attributing ideas in the 21st century affects creativity.
