Innovation Buzz

There is a lot of buzz these days about innovation.  Everyone wants to innovate.  Everyone wants a piece of it.  How can we be Innovators ?  I saw Pranav Mistry's Sixth Sense project video a while ago.  It was an out of the box thought.  But if you looked closely, Pranav used what was at his disposal and gave life to an idea of gesture based system.  Sometimes we forget that innovation is not always the next FaceBook or Apple. We forget that assembling what is available for a different purpose is also innovation.

I attended a session on Medici Effect by Frans Johansson a while ago.   It was an awesome experience. Frans was mainly talking about finding intersection.  Intersection of different thoughts of life.  Frans was telling all of us, it's about the number of ideas you have.  More the ideas,  better the outcome.  Some ideas will die and some will make more sense to move forward.  If you have not read Medici Effect by Frans, I would highly recommend it.
