Innovator’s Dilemma by Clayton Christensen
An amazing book that really makes you stop and think about what’s really happening when companies in new industries make a killing while others lose—sometimes even to the point of going out of business.
It’s a little wordy and academic, but it’s totally worth reading if you’re doing new and interesting things. Or turning something normal into

Unleash the innovator withinFive key ways to unleash the hidden potential for innovative thinking in your business and achieve high levels of success:THINK TWO GENERATIONS AHEADEnvision your company 50 or even 100 years from now, even if you don’t foresee your product or service lasting that long. Such forward-looking reflection creates an umbrella for long-term innovation to occur. Working back from your 50-or 100-year vision plan in 10-year increments, ask and answer the critical “who, what, where, when, why and how” questions about your business. For instance, who will your target demographic be; what will your core products and business focus be; where will your office(s) and facilities be located ; when will key business milestones be achieved, why will your business matter 10,
I was reading through IEEE's recent patent portfolio survey and was surprised to see that Microsoft was ranked No. 1 in terms of the overall quality, and more importantly, scientific value of its patent portfolio. The company that gave us Clippy is also sitting on a small mountain of innovation. The question, of course, is how to turn raw innovation into saleable products. In this area Microsoft may be too dependent on last decade's products to truly focus on the next decade. Yes, Microsoft has churned out the Zune, Xbox, and other new products. But I suspect its dominance in operating systems and office productivity suites keeps it from truly pushing the envelope with new products, because everything has to fit within yesterday's conception of how computing should work. In short, could

The QuirkStars would like to congratulate one of their own, Rafiq Phillips, on leaving the 9th Annual ICT Achievers Awards Ceremony with the Top Youth Innovator Award for 2007. This prestigious award was in recognition of Rafiq’s contribution to ICT in Africa; and more specifically was for Rafiq’s part in developing and marketing the site, iDRIVE.co.za.
The iDRIVE site is a portal to the driver education and training industry in South Africa. A mobile platform that was started in 2005, it is a driving instructor search engine that hosts only certified, reputable driving schools and can be accessed by anyone using an Internet-enabled cell phone, MXit or a computer.
Users are able to search for a driving school, and contact them either via the telephone, or and sms or email. The innovation of which Rafiq is particular proud is the automated communication platform, used in conjunction with MXit. The first of its kind, it ensures the ultimate convenience for users wi
For 2008, VON Magazine has been entrusted with the legacy and evolution of the pulver100. The VON Magazine Innovators (Innovators) Awards will continue to recognize companies that represent the future of IP communications, singling out innovative ideas, products, and businesses with substantial real-world deployments and significant growth, but there are some changes in how we will select and recognize accomplishments. Innovators will be judged on new IP communications products and services introduced in the 2007 calendar year. You must have a shipping product, and you must have customers. It has to be a justifiably new product–not version 2.6 as compared to last year’s 2.51. Companies will have to apply online at the VON Magazine Web site to be considered for an award. The application is available online now. The deadline for submissions is December 15, 2007. The award form can be found at www.vonmag.com/innovators.Von Magazine announcementTags: pul
Everyone who loves Apple’s products is fully aware that the company is innovative, always pushing the boundaries of what’s possible, democratizing breakthrough technologies in the process. How Apple does that, of course, is basically a secret these days. At best, we know that Steve Jobs decrees a product get made, and then it materializes.
The NY Times tries to capture this mystical sense in an article about process innovation published in the Sunday Business section. And I have to say, working in and around this dialogue, the article provides one of the more abstract explanations for the value of innovation I’ve ever seen. It talks about how sweet Intel, Apple and Google are but doesn’t say why they are able to innovate, and what that means to the rest of us. Unless innovation is tied to business growth, it’s an academic exercise. I practically expected a reference to Wikinomics here, the argument is so not grounded in concrete terms:

Any woman who is a true devotee of beautiful shoes, must give all due homage to Christian Louboutin. The current issue of Allure features Chrisitan Louboutin as an modern day influencer in fashion. I’m not one to argue. He makes the most beautiful shoes. He clearly understands what makes a woman drool over leather and straps. The coveted red sole makes more red carpet appearances than any other shoe. If I could afford a wardrobe of Christian Louboutin shoes, I’d probably be afraid to wear them. I wouldn’t want to scuff that gorgeous sole. In the meantime, I’m satisfied to add yet one more pair to my lust list.
• Metallic pewter leather.
• Peep toe.
• Covered platform sole and heel.
• Signature red sole.
• Made in Italy.
Abailable at Bergdorf Goodman for $785
In case anyone forgot, I’m a size 11M.
Lust list updated.

Our article today is inspired from the recent massive coverage of Hussein Chalayan’s transformer dresses in many established fashion Magazines like Vogue, Elle, Style, I-D, to name a few.
One of the features in their March 2007 editions is the coverage of the Spring 2007 trends: futuristic and an odyssey of metallic and science fiction fantasy.
Hussein Chalayan has fascinated and captivated the audience in his Fashion Show last October in Paris. A lot of coverage has been given at that time to Hussein Chalayan’s transformer dresses but we decided at that time not to cover his show because we want talk2myShirt to focus on ‘already available’ products and DIY tips to make your own creations. You may say, we are more on the ‘practical’ side.
The recent media attention made us coming back to Hussein Chalayan’s work because it shows again the strong coming of Wearable Electronic - our main focus in this blog.
It is very interesting to see that fusi
