The ELECTRONICS industry in CHANGING dramatically and very fast.
I live in the USA and i see that this present CRISIS is shaping the industry in a new way !
I've been in this bussines for now 25 years(i'm 45 still youg to die and not to old to rock & roll) . I started designing RF amplifiers with vacum tubes ..then i jumped in the COMPUTER REVOLUTION Wagon .
later i did SOME AI (artificial who knows what) then SUPERCOMPUTER stuff (Hypercubes wih SANI ). i endded up doing embedded .. It's small
inexpensive and creative .. I'm now trying to understand laser technology ..But i'm getting tired ..Over the years i did several inventions .. I it looks that's the only way for a ELECTRONIC ENGINEER .to exist ..He has to gain INDEPENDANCE .. I worked for BIG FIRMS as INTEL and OTHERS .. But it was not REWARDING in a CREATIVE way ..i was employed to deal wih a tiny part of a big DESIGN! which i couldn't grasp entierly!
SO i decided to share this with you .Because it looks like if we want to stay in this bussines we will have to design our own products and try to go to the MARKET . This INDUSTRY was started by VISIONARIES , CREATIVE PEOPLE .. like those guys of Hewlett Packard . Now is in hands of Speculators and People that don't give a peanut .In the HEWLETT PACKARD example ..Their PAPER and INK division is NOW MORE VALUABLE that their SERVER division! ..
It occurred to me that This place (ELEKTRODA ) not only could be used for RESOURCES but for also FEEDBACK on ORIGINAL ideas (inventions)
If we could structure an INTERCHANGE FORUM OF IDEAS ..
some PEOPLE could came and try to WORK on a PARTICULAR CONCEPT
Also we COULD try to SHARE information on HOW to gain acces TO CAPITAL!
Call me CRAZY .. ! What do you think??
