[Cyclelicious] New comment on Nike Hindsight extends peripheral vision.

bikesgonewild has left a new comment on your post "Nike Hindsight extends peripheral vision":

...re: burnfromwithin & billy may...

...therein lies the dichotomy...

...billy may, your concept seems quite brilliant & at a glance, i see it as basically an extension of our own organic visual process...

...from a business standpoint, you probably chose one of the best companies in the world to market your product...beyond earning you a decent living (& i honestly hope you'll personally make a fortune on your idea), you may be providing a 'tool' that creates a safer cycling & running environment & which could ultimately save lives...

...that being said, i would think you're intelligent enough to grasp the p.o.v. that burnsfromwithin is coming from...

...personally, as an independent thinker, i don't really worry about being 'milked' by corporate america, as you suggest, although there is a calculated approach that companies like nike employ...& there are plenty of folks who base their spending on those huge campaigns...

...if i'm interested in your product & what looks to be an intelligent concept on the surface, i'd research it & if it truly fits my needs, then i'd buy it...

...not everyone thinks in those terms, & huge corporate advertising budgets bare that out...& nike is egregious by their presence...
