Innovation & blogs

Need another good reason to have a business blog? Because “von Hippel says companies are finding that more and more innovation is coming not from in-house developers, but from products users who do their own re-engineering.

“People are innovating for themselves,” he said. “That’s what has happened and economists are really puzzled about it because economists are fosuced on this IP-based system.”

Matador

Went to see the new film Matador about a paid assassin who gets the ‘shakes’ but gets help from a normal guy who helps see him through his last job, and in return helps mr normal keep his cool; nice film, especially liked the soundtrack and shots of the bull ring.

Funny thing was after the film I realised I had when in Memphis got introduced to the brother of world famous assassin James Earl Ray, and shook his hand which was strange, particularly as it was at a meeting of the Coalition on Political Assassinations which also featured famous comedian Dick Gregory. Do I get a FBL file for attending, or just for blogging about it?
