cartzedan458y@chadd17 except you are Mark Zuckerberg or Bill Gate... and even they made a difference before coping

chadd1745218yAll of biology and society is based off of being like and learning from previous generations. You're only remarking on creativity or bravery to produce a novel result. But I think for the sake of sounding poetic (or trite), you're ignoring a very important concept which is summed up in the adage "don't reinvent the wheel." You can't *not* copy someone else in the sense that (A) 95% of our ideas aren't original, and (B) doing things that work is intrinsic to survival, especially when leaning it from others.

cartzedan458y@chadd17 ok, I think you are seeing this or looking at it from a different perception...Thing can only be said to be like and not the same a the other, BBM and Whats app are all Messaging App but each with is strength and uniqueness. (Summing up Don't reinvent the wheel). You can only make a difference if you made things better but not the same as the original. Copying and Improving on an invention or idea are different thing entirely..

chadd1745218y@filthyranter can't upvote or downvote cause I'm not sure if you're talking about their slogan or their actual business practice.
NO ONE EVER MADE A DIFFERENCE BY BEING LIKE EVERYONE ELSE... And NO ONE EVER BECAME GREAT BY COPYING SOMEONE ELSE...
