Power Is Shifting Massively To Individuals....
>>This may take some time. I believe Microsoft must re-prove its value as an investment, as many people have been disappointed with how they responded to some recent challenges, such as their current legal mess, for example. We need to see some evidence that the leadership in Redmond has a firm grasp of the current business climate, technology direction(s), and customer needs. For many, investing is an act of faith, and most require some foundation upon which to base this faith; hence, re-establishing investor confidence is a huge challenge and will take time.
To me, this foundation is of equal importance through out. Political aspects (read: legal woes), has become "A Leap", equivalent in importance to "The Leap" into the new IT Paradigm. I don't need further assurance personally, as does the market. BWDIK, I'm just a lowly holder of a "old economy" stock, who is here for The long term plan.>>
Here's the problem.
Gate's and Microsoft travelled along the road of individual empowered technology WITH an endless caravan of hidden agendas attached, buried, hidden to the outside/inside and throughside of their game. This turned the PC into the hated necessary evil that it is today. And the Internet is simply the light at the end of a very long, dark tunnel.
You cannot change their spots.
It's there. It's fixed in a mindset that has always said "we are smarter then the rest of you." Period.
With each passing day there's growing evidence that Microsoft's power is fading. They're becoming irrelevent.
Why?
Because their paradigm is based on power and control which creates friction, limitations, restrictions and transparency issues.
And the pure core power and nature of the REAL Internet is
eliminate - OBLITERATE - all friction, limitations, restrictions while forcing openness and transparency into everything on a worldwide, massive scale.
The REAL Internet is about ONE thing: making bandwidth smart. Smart enough for people to find, help and serve -openly, transparenty while protecting my privacy and security - WITHOUT being bogged down in someone's technology power/control paradigm.
Right now, bandwidth is DUMB. And the only power that's going to make it SMART will be the power, energy, light and love from INDIVIDUALS who want the TOTAL/COMPLETE freedom to embrace, live, walk, talk and share in massively leveraged ways which CAN radically, totally and completely make this world a better place to live.
What I'm talking about is that we are at a time in world history where everything being exposed and fused at the same time base on these timeless values and principals of truth that drive everything in the universe.
We are moving massively away from the control/power paradigm of BUSINESS which placed the individual below the collective of companies and corporations....to an energy/freedom paradigm of SERVICE which places the INDIVIDUAL at THE most powerful point in any technology/data/information distribution/development model.
From here on out, it's going to be INDIVIDUALS FIRST and everyone/everything else SECOND.
The redundancy, madness and meaninglessness of technology development which serves companies/corporations/governments first and individuals second is being exposed as tail chasing charade.
DOT.COM is simply NOT.COM
The REAL Internet is about ME first and everyone else second. Each individual helping and serving OTHERS. The REAL Internet will allow 500,000 INDIVIDUALS who want to help and serve "ME" to earn some of "MY" time and trust to do so transparently and automatically in much more directly leveraged personal ways.
Then I in turn can turn around and help and serve 500,000 others INDIVIDUALS who could use some of my energy, time, trust, skills, ideas and love.
Right now the world has it all bass ackwards. INDIVIDUALS are SERVING companies, corporations and governments and we don't even realize how it got this way. We just go on believing that it's "always has been this way" and thats that.
The result of all this is simply more friction, restrictions and limitations which are fueled/fired and fed by the illusion of fear, power and control.
There is no question that INDIVIDUALS are THE source of ALL energy, light, power and love. We have this energy inside of all of us. And if we don't believe this we've just have been disempowered by something/somewhere/sometime duringn out lives out of choice to believe otherwise.
When I state all this, what I'm really getting to is the END GAME - the LAST FRONTIER....THE INDIVIDUAL.
Gates, Balmer and Microsoft - and a lot of other technology companies - want to GET BETWEEN me and other individuals that I may want to help and serve. And he wants to do it in a way that appears to have "me" and my interests at heart, but there will always be a hidden agenda of restrictive covenents, technologies, bits and bites that will limit my choices.
They have done this masterfully for the first 20 years of the PC revolution. Intel was a willing conspirator. The OEMs all fell into line. Then the inevitable antitrust case came along.
But the Eveready Bunny keeps going. Microsoft has been a massive/massive power/control paradigm that has fed off the risks that others take.
The veil has been pulled on these folks.
I respect Gates - the person - but there's a completely different culture that have woven itself around Microsoft that has been materially called into question.
They just "don't get it."
The world is moving massively away from their mindset.
MSFT fair market value should be in the mid $20's just as Bill Parrish (www.billparrish.com) predicted over a year ago when he exposed the financial side of this power/control pyramid.
I'd like to believe that Gates could completely invert from a power/control business paradigm to the energy/freedom service paradigm. But that'd be like Napsterizing Windows. An impossible thought?
It's "the internet, stupid."
Peace.
