Edge: THE PANCAKE PEOPLE, OR, "THE GODS ARE POUNDING MY HEAD" - http://www.edge.org/3rd_cul...
But today, I see within us all (myself included) the replacement of complex inner density with a new kind of self-evolving under the pressure of information overload and the technology of the "instantly available". A new self that needs to contain less and less of an inner repertory of dense cultural inheritance—as we all become "pancake people"—spread wide and thin as we connect with that vast network of information accessed by the mere touch of a button. - Chris Dymond

The eight multiple intelligences described by Howard Gardner offer plenty of options for the novelty-seeker. Though each of us is endowed with all eight of the multiple intelligences, generally we rely on the same few. We tend to choose the ones that work best for us or that draw our interest. - Chris Dymond

The Digital Economy's Coming Subprime Crisis (And What You Can Learn From It) - Umair Haque - HarvardBusiness.org - http://blogs.harvardbusiness.org/haque...
Why media just might be the new Wall Street. Today's media players aren't investing in better ads. They're investing in more — and more toxic — ads. Uh oh: it's the economic equivalent of the subprime crisis. The parallels, to me, are too striking to ignore. - Chris Dymond

Can Lean Co-exist with Innovation? - Knowledge@Wharton - http://knowledge.wharton.upenn.edu/article...
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. - Chris Dymond

The Second Financial Shock Could be Worse Than The First - SVW - http://www.siliconvalleywatcher.com/mt...
I've been remarking lately that we haven't yet had the second market correction. People forget that after the stock market crash of 1929 the market seemed well on its way to a recovery before crashing a second time in 1932. It then took decades to recover. Investors would have to wait until November 1954 to recover to 1929 levels. - Chris Dymond
