Hi Lelele, The first thing I would do is check your name is in fact unique. Just because you registered the name icoke.com, .net, .org, etc... doesn't mean you own a trademark (common or otherwise) and doesn't mean you aren't infringing on

If you formed your entity correctly (I assume this is where your $3k debt to your lawyer came in), you likely can declare bankruptcy for your company and take no personal liability. You might want to find family and friends who can loan you

(1) You should never "ignore" a cease and desist letter. I would have it reviewed by an experienced lawyer in the field perhaps over lunch (to save on legal costs) and get their input on the risk and likelihood of getting sued. Then I'd go

@mrbird This is very case dependent on what your site or app does. Should it stop you from building it? Probably not. If you don't incorporate or incorporate improperly, you'll likely be personally liable. There are tax and legal consequenc

I love when MSM rehashes and restates the obvious. What? Paypal wants to dominate the market they are in?! Shocker. What will be be interesting is if one of the major payment processors lowers transaction costs in the micro-payment space pr

I'd use http://libyanspider.com . When I was looking to register they were the only non-super-sketchy registrar.

Please don't take this the wrong way, but where do you get $250K revenue from? Also, who is using these layer styles now and are your layer styles protected by IP? The styles look a little like those I would find on Word's word art function

I would inform the registrar that the email information in the WHOIS is incorrect. I would also send a polite letter, in my experience that can get the ball rolling. My gut says that if they have 70 domains registered, it's likely you'll ha

Can't wait for someone to sue for malpractice when confidential documents go viral, originating from a leak in India. I believe the average case in India's civil courts is over 5 years and I would guess most companies are judgment proof and

Online Payment Transaction Costs - every time a new player enters the field like Amazon Payments/Google Checkout entering into Paypal's domain they all converge on the same relative pricing scheme.

Without reading your article and the "spun" article it would be hard to tell whether or not your copyright has been infringed. Could you post the links? Perhaps, open up a channel of communication with the "legitimate businesses" that run t

I'm not sure you need the whole package, but it sure helps and potentially saves time/cost down the road. @moe I think branding is always important.

My current manager visited my school for a brown bag lunch talk. I asked her questions during and after the lunch. I continued the discussion over email and eventually that turned into an internship. After the Bar, it turned into a job and

I'd be interested to see how processes work at a bootstrapped vs. funded start up. A comparison table would be awesome!
