Talk:Sharing

message: Sharing figures prominently in gift economies, but also can play a significant role in market economies, for example in car sharing.
The issue of handling shared resources figures prominently in computer science: for example time-sharing is an approach to interactive computing in which a single computer is used to provide apparently simultaneous interactive general-purpose computing to multiple users by sharing processor time.
Sharing is a key feature in the developing field of free software and open source software, with implications for economic. This is leading to a need to review licensing, patents and copyright, and to controversy in these areas, as well as new approaches like Creative Commons and the GPL.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 83.178.27.227 (talk) 22:52, 20 June 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  About sharing 

message: Sharing disjoints the connection between usage and ownership of a product.  Products are often sold because a buyer intends to use the product or the buyer intends to sell it to someone who will use it, thus sharing a product may reduce the product's demand by reducing the number of people who intend to acquire it in order to use it.  Though sharing is touted as an economical and environmental aid to the public(carpooling, shared apartments, etc.), some businesses perceive it as a threat because of its assumed effect on their profitability.  This has resulted in protection laws(like copyright provisions such as denying owners the right to perform or display the work publicly) to curb sharing.

thread_title:  Sharing and the Effects on Market Demand 

message: To share can actually build an empire. We have a tool box and person A owns it. Now if person A shares the hammer of the tool box to person B, for instance. Then person A can cut some wood with a circular from the tool box while at the same time person B can hammer together previously cut wood to shorten the production time. Thus a house can be constructed in about half the time if person A shares all his tools with person B. Thus a more compatible environment to create a structure quicker. Then if person C is allowed to use the tape measure from tool box he can measure out the size and length of the wood to be cut. While person A cuts and person B hammers. So in essence the house can then be constructed in one third the time. And so forth and so on.
      On the other hand it can be detrimental to share something like a spoon. Many intrivenious drug users share spoons to mix-up their concoction. Thus giving one another their germs which breed on the spoon's surface. They all get their own jollies using the one spoon, but they can also spread one another's diseases around or even kill each other by infecting one another with the contaminated germ breeding spoon.
      So put bluntly sharing is both very good but also very bad. So in other words the habit of constant sharing could kill us all.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.150.128.43 (talk) 10:54, 14 November 2009 (UTC)

thread_title:  Heading 

message: Currently the lede has this definition for sharing: "Sharing is the joint use of a resource or space". However, that definition is incomplete: it misses out on the aspect of sharing that's about sharing personal experiences, emotions, memories, knowledge, information and cultural outputs (of ones own or of other people such as images, videos or music on the Internet etc.).
So to start this I'd think the definition would be more complete like this: "Sharing is the joint use of a resource or space or the intentional passing on of information, personal experiences or already perceived cultural outputs."
Maybe someone else has a better suggestion or can improve it?

thread_title:  External links modified 

message: It appears that you are the editor responsible for the section Hungarian cultural practices in Sharing. I have tagged that section as lacking in sources. I have also nominated the article as a whole for deletion. If you can find sources for the content you shared, I believe it may be appropriate in a subsection in Gift economy. Thank you for your contribution. Lagringa (talk) 22:31, 4 January 2021 (UTC)
