what is the triple convergence and why is it important
in the story india and indiana who is exploiter and who is the exploited party
what is intellectual property and why is it important


                Triple convergence is based on the three convergences.  Convergence number 1 is a global

playing field the allows the collaboration among many countries and people.  it allows people to

share their ideas and knowledge without the barriers of language and that they are in different

countries.  The second convergence breaks down the traditional store or workplace by letting people

work from home with their computers and letting people shop on the internet with the use of a credit

card.  The third convergence allows a much bigger global playing field in which people can compete

and share even more of their innovations and ways to  make everything easier and more excesible.

I think triple convergence is important because it has allowed us to do alot more thing in our world

quicker and easier due to the innovations that people are coming up with to make the world flat.


               In the story India Vs Indiana I think the exploiter was the government that shut down

the deal and the exploited was everyone that would have benefited because of the deal.


               Intellectual property is somebodies product or invention.  A lot of times when I hear the

term intellectual property is when game developers come up with new franchises and they talk about

their new IP that they want to talk about.  Intellectual property is important because people want to

protect want they have come up with.
