most good ideas havenīt been destroyed from the buyer market - they have been destroyed from the competitor market that cut the cake in too small pieces. the goldrush in USA might be one of this famous examples where the winners have been people like levis strauss. they did not care the gold they just counted the number of competitors and found out that THEY are the gold.

but i have started my webmaster career like that.
i copied and pasted sourcecodes of websites - changed them and tried to understand what everything makes.

as soon as i knew it i could also see when something is wrong and made it better.
