Oh, this one is for the ‘neat’ files!!!
Abraham Lincoln tried to patent – unsuccessfully – a hardcopy version of what we now know as ‘Facebook’: from the profile picture, to likes, updates and ‘sharing’ all the way to who can see how much of the profile.
Which, of course, begs a gaggle of questions: starting with ‘If Abe Lincoln was denied a patent – why is the Zuckerbaby’s one valid?’
