Related Party Transactions [Abstract]
Related Party Transactions Disclosure [Text Block]	15. Related Party Transactions ipCapital Group, Inc. On October 11, 2011, we engaged ipCapital Group, Inc.(“ipCapital”), an affiliate of John Cronin, who is one of our directors, to assist us in the execution of our strategic decision to significantly strengthen, grow and commercially exploit our intellectual property assets. Our engagement agreement with ipCapital, which has been amended three times, affords us the right to request ipCapital to perform a number of diverse services, employing its proprietary processes and methodologies, to facilitate our ability to identify and extract from our current intellectual property base new inventions, potential patent applications, and marketing and licensing opportunities. For the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, we paid ipCapital an aggregate $15,000 and $179,300, respectively, for services performed under the engagement agreement, as amended. All amounts paid to ipCapital in 2013 and 2012 have been reported within general and administrative expense. As of December 31, 2013 and 2012, we owed $0 and $5,000 to ipCapital under the terms of this agreement. In addition to the fees we agreed to pay ipCapital for its services, we issued ipCapital a five-year warrant to purchase up to 400,000 shares of our common stock at an initial price of $0.26 per share. Half of the warrant (200,000 shares) has a time-based vesting condition, with such vesting to occur in three equal annual installments. The first and second vesting installments occurred on October 11, 2012 and 2013, respectively, with the remaining installment to expected to vest on October 11, 2014. The remaining 200,000 shares became fully vested upon the completion to our satisfaction of all services that we requested from ipCapital under the engagement agreement, prior to the signing of the amendments. Such performance was deemed satisfactory during 2012. We believe that these fees, together with the issuance of the warrant, constitute no greater compensation than we would be required to pay an unaffiliated person for substantially similar services. The exercise price of the warrant issued to ipCapital could be reset to below-market value. Consequently, we have concluded that such warrant is not indexed to our common stock; thus, we will accrete the fair value of the warrant as a liability over the anticipated service period. Additionally, in accordance with the liability method of accounting, we will re-measure the fair value of the then-outstanding warrant at each future balance sheet date and recognize the change in fair value as general and administrative compensation expense. (See Note 8) We recognized ($10,800) and $76,900 as a component of general and administrative expense during the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively, related to such warrant. During 2013, we engaged ipCapital under a separate agreement to assist us in developing an intellectual property story presentation that articulated for shareholders and potential investors the power of our innovations and foundational intellectual property portfolio in remote access and cloud computing. We paid ipCapital a total of $10,000 for its services under this agreement. No amounts were due ipCapital under this agreement as of December 31, 2013. ipCapital Licensing Company I, LLC On February 4, 2013, we entered into an IP Brokerage agreement with ipCapital Licensing Company I, LLC (“ipCLC”)(the “IP Brokerage Agreement”). John Cronin is a partner at ipCLC. Pursuant to the IP Brokerage Agreement, we have engaged ipCLC, on a no-retainer basis, to identify and present us with candidates who may be seeking to acquire a certain limited group of our patents unrelated to our current business strategy. If during the applicable term we enter into an agreement with any candidate presented by ipCLC to acquire or otherwise exploit the covered patents, we will pay ipCLC a fee of ten percent (10%) of the royalties, fees, and other consideration paid over the life of the agreement. The IP Brokerage Agreement is effective as of February 4, 2013, and will end 18 months after we or ipCLC serve 60 days written notice of termination to the other party (with earlier termination possible in the event of a material breach). The IP Brokerage Agreement provides for customary confidentiality undertakings, limitations on ipCLC’s total liability and mutual indemnification provisions. We believe the terms of the IP Brokerage Agreement are fair and reasonable to us and are at least as favorable as those that we could be obtained on an arms’ length basis. We paid no compensation to ipCapital under the terms of the IP Brokerage Agreement during 2013 and no amounts were due ipCapital under its terms as of December 31, 2013. ipCreate, Inc. In 2013, we entered into an Engagement Letter (the “Agreement”), with ipCreate, Inc. (“ipCreate”). John Cronin is Chairman and CEO of ipCreate; Michael Brochu, who also serves on our Board of Directors, provides consulting services to ipCreate for compensation. Pursuant to the Agreement, we engaged ipCreate to assist us in the definition and execution of our intellectual property strategy. Pursuant to the Agreement, and upon completion of certain tasks we requested ipCreate to perform, we paid ipCreate $100,000 during 2013, the full amount of compensation due them under the Agreement for the services performed. We believe the terms of the Agreement were fair and reasonable to us and were at least as favorable to us as those that could have been obtained on an arm’s length basis. Tamalpais Partners LLC Steven Ledger, the Chairman of the Company’s Board of Directors, is the founder and managing partner of Tamalpais Partners LLC, a business consulting firm. On February 1, 2012, the Company entered into a one year consulting agreement with Tamalpais under which Tamalpais will provide it with advisory services focused on capital and business issues, including assistance on raising capital, mergers, acquisitions, business development and investor relations/positioning. The Company renewed the consulting agreement for an additional year upon its expiration. During 2013 and 2012, we paid Tamalpais $110,000 and $66,000, respectively, for services rendered to us under the terms of this consulting agreement. No amounts were owed to Tamalpais as of December 31, 2013 or 2012, respectively.
