When starting a business, brainstorming ideas - how do you protect your ideas?
-
My friends want to go in on a website. I'm the right brainer, the creative part. All my ideas are being used. It seems like I'm the one with most of the vision. It's fine, my friends are the analytical left brainers, I think we could have a great partnership. I had a website go south and some ideas from that site I mentioned for this one. Then my friend calls me today and tells me she doesn't want me to use my ideas for others sites I may want to use down the road. 1 - is she in the right to ask me not to use my own ideas? 2 - especially when I had them before this website took place? 3 - She had a tiny idea I blew up and am pretty much the visionary... if and when I do other websites, if I dont use her 1 idea (out of my 20) is it wrong to still use some of my ideas for other websites? How do you protect your ideas? So they're not stolen and people don't complain or have any room to establish they should get money for knowing about them? thank you and sorry if I sound huffy!

Answer:
Well your frien is thinking about profit. try to copy write the idea but make sure your name is on the top of the copy write. Then if she makes you some money go with it but if she tries to drop you or just take the idea your not screwed. Do this right away sounds like she is thinking about it already

Sounding huffy: First are your websites and ideas copyritten? If they are not then you are open to the loss of the ideas. You would need to copyright them all. If her idea is the lead one and she is asking that you not use the same idea on other websites she would then need to pay you for your copyrighted material. It would need protection from the copyright laws. Best of luck

well I tried to understand what do you mean. There si something called "intellectual property" which is law that protects your ideas. Just have a look at these sites and this may help you. Good luck :) http://www.ipo.gov.uk/whatis.htm http://www.ipo.gov.uk/
