Don’t forget about us.
A core component in the Singularity-conversation is the topic of the evolving humanization of computers. But how come we don’t speak much of the reciprocal mechanization of man? It’s a two-way street, but most of us don’t consider this in the big picture. Our natural processes are constantly influenced (for better and worse) by the [...]

So, Facebook is evolving.
With emphasis on at least 3 core web services – search, chat and the upcoming email – Facebook is getting more serious about functions that Google, among others, are doing well at providing. It makes sense. So here are some quick thoughts on what 400 million users are experiencing on Facebook these [...]

When was the last time we saw an innovation in the “fan” product category? This guy gives a quick demo.

The ultimate innovation challenge comes to America’s doorstep. It’s knocking, banging, kicking and screaming. Someone give that kid a lollipop and get to work.
But there’s so much to do!
Hmmmm…

the economic crisis has destroyed banks, jobs, academic endowments, homes and more;
there’s massive (and growing) federal debt;
the education system is painfully failing (19th in the UN’s [...]

I can’t sleep.
At moments like this, I find myself reminiscing about how we used to live; sleep, wake, sleep, wake. I’ve always been nostalgic, but I guess I’m still having a hard time adjusting even though I have implanted and installed a solid understanding of the change. Despite the inefficiencies that we resolved, a hint [...]

As any good statistician will tell you: more data is not better data. But more data when intelligently analyzed, probed, manipulated and mastered can be extraordinary data.

About a week ago, news broke of an exciting and innovative project from the Australian arm of the Mountain View Monster: run for your lives everyone, it’s Google Wave.

Once you get inside, you’ll quickly observe that chess involves ideas – both general and specific – that are remarkably applicable to our lives outside the game. The winning heuristics, best practices and related concepts can be applied to processes that include creativity, competition, tactics and innovation, among many others.
