Makes you wonder, doesn't it, how we even got here before the age of Industrialization and the huge banking institutions and Wall Street changed things. ;) And then since, poor decrepits like John D. Rockefeller and others just couldn't manage to keep their holdings together because of age. Everybody ages differently anyway. I've known too many older ones who have done far better than me. So keep going, Hutch, you'll continue to out think the best of them. :)

Ha! Thanks Melanie. Decision making is like wine, better with age.

Ideation vs. Innovation by From the Editorial Staff at e-BIM by Six Sigma - Lean Six Sigma - http://www.sixsigmaiq.com/Columna...
There's really no shortage of creativity or of creative people in business institutions. Brainstorming sessions are, indeed, exciting, liberating and valuable. Almost anybody can produce good ideas in an encouraging environment. The scarce people are those who have the experience, know-how and staying power to assemble, organize and coordinate all the elements required to produce innovation.

Can Lean Co-exist with Innovation? - Knowledge@Wharton - http://knowledge.wharton.upenn.edu/article...
According to experts at The Boston Consulting Group (BCG) and Wharton faculty, lean and innovation can indeed complement each other, and it's about time they came together. Lean brings structure and predictability to innovation, and sharpens the distinction between idea generation and the development process, they say. Both share a common goal: to meet customer needs in a cost-effective manner. And lean can help empower researchers and reduce uncertainty in the innovation process itself.

Enterprise Software is Not Dead Yet - VentureBlog - http://ventureblog.com/article...
If you can credibly argue that a customer's increased profits will exceed the price it will pay for the software, purchasing the software should be a no brainer. Supply Chain and CRM software were sold on a similar efficiency story in the late 90's and early 2000's and, in many instances, continue to drive significant ROI for those customers who adopted them early.

Daniel J. Pritchett liked this
They key activity steps of enterprise business processes embodied into today's ERP, CRM, SCM et al software, such order-to-cash, procure-to-pay, hire-to-retire, or record-to-report need to be highly structured for a variety of reasons, not the least of which is efficiency, their primary reason for being, but also for significant compliance concerns they address. I don't foresee a point any time in the near future where enterprises will leverage Enterprise 2.0 principles in the core of accounting, or payroll, or order management because there are serious risks to doing so for a business. These enterprise business processes are complicated enough without any unstructured processes surrounding in them, as you can see here in this offer creation process which we diagrammed in Driven to Perform in our chapter on Risk-Aware Marketing Performance Management.

If someone clicks through to something that tracks referrals while they're using a list, then, yeah, you'd see the list names. Sometimes I'll see what list folks have me on when I check my blog stats.

Well, on a maybe related note, the Innovation Management Group (http://friendfeed.com/innovat...) has not updated for 24 hours now.

Twitter shut off the firehose, but made available a replacement API called birddog. We're about ready to switch that on (which will restore realtime Twitter updates), but are waiting on some final approvals from legal. I'm hoping it will all be resolved this week.

Most everyone I know is on Facebook now, with a few exceptions that refuse to use much of anything on the internet except for youtube and blogs. Nobody gets the point of twitter, especially with facebook/friendfeed offering the same type of communication options, if not more. However, the nice thing about twitter/friendfeed is that it's searchable. The other day I was watching the events from Fort Hood unfold on twitter. I couldn't do that easily on facebook. That's where twitter shines.

I do agree. It is really difficult to convince someone to use twitter. And even if I do, they don't stay active on the service. They too state "I don't see any point in the service". Often are the times when they are convincing me it is nothing but a blog platform with 140 characters limit.

I've learned that it's not a good idea to try to convince friends to join Twitter. Unless they get it, they will simply annoy you with Facebook style Tweets. Better to seek out Twitter users who have learned the knack of posting interesting Tweets.

I see Twitter as another information portal, and a social channel (albeit limited). For those things it's great. I don't use facebook all that much, but it's good to chat with old friends to say howdy and share current happenings. I'm me no matter what social hub I'm on, but the local laws/rules/community etiquette fits my preferences better in some virtual hangouts.

My daughter of about the same age also got and shortly thereafter canceled a twitter account.
- SuezanneC Baskerville
Twitter is useful as a minimalist news broadcasting system. Twitter is worse than useless as a medium for conversation. I mostly use Twitter in combination with Topsy searches to pluck off the most interesting news stories of the day on selected topics. Without Topsy, I would stop using Twitter entirely because of the information overload.
- Sean McBride
Mona's point is pretty much spot on. I kind of "imported" a Revision 3 forum network into Twitter, which led to FriendFeed, which had sort of a recursive bend back into Twitter, which led to finding Twitter recommendations, which then opened me up to following people from IRL, and then...ah crap. I've stopped using Twitter as much, though, because Facebook is where the people I CARE about really are. And in case you're wondering, I'm friends with Mona on Facebook ;)
- Mike Nayyar
I've hit a wall trying to get my friends to sign up for Twitter. It's like they've got an image issue. Whenever I try to explain it's value for news and as RSS replacement, people sort of stop listening. They're left thinking it's Facebook without the "fun stuff," which is lesser and redundant for them.
- Jeremiah Green
Is it fair to say that the tweets related to tech news that some folks think are so wonderful and important are primarily links to web sites, blogs, new articles, and so on produced by someone other than the tweeter? So far as I've seen, subscribing to, say, all the employees of a company doesn't produce much news about the company; instead you see posts about where the employees ate lunch and stuff like that. Of course I may just not be looking at the right people.
- SuezanneC Baskerville
Unless you have a defined business strategy, there really is not much point to Twitter, unless you just want to connect for fun, which is under my business strategy :)

It is very hard to keep motivated with all the bots, spam, ads, slaves and etc. Don't feel bad if you make mistakes because this is a new thing that is evolving underneath the feet of everyone on it.

My personal recommendation, when engaging in the ideation process and the development of an idea, especially when using idea management software, is that a core requirement of collaborating require that for every flawed aspect of an idea that is pointed out, a positive one is too. The positive one can address a separate aspect of the idea, or perhaps propose a way of mitigating the identified flaw. This helps keep the balance equal or in favor of the positive aspects, but also opens the opportunity to constructively address the flaws.

Straw Man Argument About Enterprise 2.0 Doesn't Fly - ReadWriteEnterprise - http://www.readwriteweb.com/enterpr...
We spoke today with Mike Gotta, an industry analyst with the Burton Group. He puts it well. For data entry and claims processing, people use other tools. The Enterprise 2.0 offerings augment their work. "Dennis has a point," Gotta said. "These systems are not workflow driven - we already have tools to do that. "These tools augment work. They enhance it, they enrich it."

ACM: Ubiquity - Where ideas collide, innovation happens - http://www.acm.org/ubiquit...
Failure, Johansson maintains, seems a necessary element in eventual innovative success. Not even the most creative geniuses succeed on their first and every effort, and an environment intended to encourage innovation should be prepared to reward creative failure as a necessary cost. He admits that rewarding failure is not an easy practice to explain to a manager and offers an explanation and some tactical suggestions. In fact, he cites a couple of studies that suggest that offering explicit Skinnerian rewards for success may dampen creativity. Other behaviors he sees as contributing to successful creativity include breaking away from the network of associates and ties that link one to directional pursuits, taking risks, and confronting fear — especially the fear of failure.

IT snake oil: Six tech cure-alls that went bunk - http://www.infoworld.com/print...
With enterprise social media, the aspect that's truly overhyped is the concept of collaboration, notes Criterion's Hockenberry. Bringing diverse groups of people into a Web setting is not how innovation typically happens, he adds. "Social networks like Facebook are the biggest coffee klatch on earth," says Hockenberry. "They're nice for chatting, but we really haven't figured out the business implementation for them. Just adopting a new technology does not create innovation for you."

At the Enterprise 2.0 conference in San Francisco today, David Berlind hosted a session called “is Enterprise 2.0 a Crock”, drawing inspiration from Dennis Howlett’s Enterprise 2.0 – What a Crock post, and Andrew McAfee’s riposte: Enterprise 2.0 is a Crock: Discuss. The panelists were all members of the 2.0 Adoption Council (from left to right in the photo above) Greg Lowe of Alcatel-Lucent, Megan Murray of Booz Allen Hamilton, Bryce Williams of Eli-Lilley, Jamie Pappas of EMC, Bruce Galinsky of MetLife, and Claire Flanagan of CSC.

I really dislike the iPhone camera and it will become an increasingly important factor to look at when selecting a new phone.For me the most important elements are: 1) Call quality and easy of use when calling/SMSing (yes folks I use my phone as a phone). 2) The camera quality (I find myself in need of a good, always around mobile camera 3) Web browsing/ mobile apps

While the iPhone scores best on 3) it scores poor on 1) and 2) for me, and they are more importnat to me. I have my hopes set on (An) Droid. How about you?

Lists were the mechanism for finding me. Still not sure what she wants to follow tech people for.

To have us talk about her and help her beat Ashton Kutcher is my guess.
