Last December 4, I woke up suddenly at 6am in my hotel room in Los Angeles with a really great idea for a wiki. A really fantastically great idea. I wouldn’t say that I was positive it would make me billions, but I figured the odds were at least fifty percent.
I should point out that I’m a magazine writer, not a computer person, and I hadn’t programmed a computer since high school, in the days when the most sophisticated way to store data was on a tape recorder. However, my idea seemed so self-evidently genius that the only worry nagging me was that someone had already thought of it.
