I have no time to read them all yet, but I recognize something here that is very important in your story:<BR/><BR/>Innovation unlike true invention happens simultaneously across the board. It's very common for people to think they're unique or thinking uniquely... this leads to a tremendous amount of duplication of effort. <BR/><BR/>I've learned this because it is extremely apparent in the software world. And so it rings true in manufacturing as well.<BR/><BR/>Do new transparency and so called "hyper-connectivity" we have more of an opportunity than ever to pool our resources as is most apparent with open source software to create a new type of innovation.<BR/><BR/>This is an effect that works backwards or toward such macro-economic trends like market verticalization or the most apt "walmatization" effect.<BR/><BR/>In essence the big idea here is to create a new marketplace of ideas... a walmart of innovation.<BR/><BR/>In many ways this is what open source is to software... but that is just one of thousands of forms it might take... and what's more we must ask how would this apply to manufacuring, particularly in the bike world.<BR/><BR/>For now... this is it... you're doing it... blogs. Given time and the transparency of blogging... superb search, and other factors of the internet in a broad sense this is the marketplace I'm talking about... it is just ad-hock and non-explicit.. but right now it's getting the job done... as I can see very clearly from the 78 comments.Michael Meiserhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02136752168371831819noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24415034.post-27701162510100446202008-10-28T18:09:00.000-04:002008-10-28T18:09:00.000-04:00NamelessNamelessJeromehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09984978420642327867noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24415034.post-52508113148074483272008-10-19T01:25:00.000-04:002008-10-19T01:25:00.000-04:00the frog bar. a slight dig, but whatever....the frog bar. <BR/><BR/>a slight dig, but whatever....Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13488062628299222083noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24415034.post-65266324891207942362008-10-09T22:34:00.000-04:002008-10-09T22:34:00.000-04:00The best I could come up with is "Chat De Ruelle"....The best I could come up with is "Chat De Ruelle".<BR/><BR/>Regardless, these are the bars of my dreams, materializing before my eyes.
