ARESHARING
Authentic Sharing - It is complete and intentional sharingIntentional sharing - Selfless sharing and it is a push factorSelfish sharing - Only some aspects are shared and never one
would know the whole.Bait sharing - Sharing attracts others to the source for complete
knowledge.Proxy sharing - sharing original idea with amendments and
declaring as their own.Comfortable sharing - Sharing comfortably with only a particular
section of people and who are non-competitive.
=> SHARE AS MUCH AS KNOWLEDGE, IT IS NEVER GOING TO DEPLEATE,
IT WILL BE ALWAYS ENHANCED

DIGITAL SHARING• Blogs
– Date and time
– Comments– The number of hits by location gives an idea of geographies (yes
digital connectivity should also be considered)– The innovator would have the confidence that the idea is original – Blogs and websites are accessed by all kinds of people. – With feedback / comments the knowledge can be refined.– No barriers as in case of scientific journals, which are static and are
mostly paid journals and very few can access
– The contributions of others should be duly acknowledged and should be added as it is, in the process the knowledge becomes open.
– Join expert discussion groups and share as much as possible. The comments from the discussion groups are very much useful in improving the Knowledge.

US ECONOMIC EDGE BASED ON PATENTS
How does the U.S. maintain its economic edge? One way is through innovation, and protecting innovation using legal mechanisms, particularly patents. The U.S. grants more patents than any other country and an estimated 75% of the value of publicly-traded U.S. businesses is now in intangible assets. The total value of U.S. intellectual property is estimated at more than $5 trillion, which exceeds the entire GDP of any other nation. According to the United States Patent and Trademark Office, intellectual property-based businesses and entrepreneurs drive more economic growth in the United States than any other sector.

As compared to data and information sharing, knowledge sharing is more holistic. Wisdom should be acquired by each individual, which should be expressed in our being.

Banana trap for monkeyMonkeys are cleverly trapped
by placing a banana in a cage where only the straight palm can fit into a small hole, after holding the banana, the monkey cannot take out its hand.
Banana is the Knowledge accessed by the monkey not willing to share. It is just held and there is no freedom as long as it is held.
