This post is made significantly better by having a Nigerian sounding username!
I always say that money doesn't make you happy, it just stops you from being unhappy due to being poor. But that's still pretty significant.

This is just my second post, so be kind.
Tho, I would like to say hi to everybody, I really enjoy coming here to see how the worlds going ( mad ) in its own funny way.
Smiles are healthy.
Imagine for a moment that you have developed a totally new algorithim. Something noteworthy, like a compression algorithim that far outstrips anything on the market today.
Whats your next step?
As I understand it, algorithims are no longer copyright-able.
Whats the difference between an algorithim (in copyright terms) and a complete product?
How do we as programmers, go about converting code into cash?
Thanks for your thoughts.
Post data: I produced, copyrighted and sold my first software product some 20 odd years ago ( yes I've been at this for a while ). I'm just wondering how things have changed since then.

Unless I missed something, you can still patent an algorithm.

Maybe in the US, but it's a different story in the EU, for example. You cannot patent scientific theories or mathematical methods here, all you can do is try to patent the procedure, if it has a certain level of technological value and represents a patentable invention.
