I would suggest you to find your way into everyday life of innovation, not just big names, there is so much innovation floating around, it’s not only smart and successfull who are innovative, I believe in grassroot innovation!

Great topic for a book, would love to read it (I plan to).

Innovation is just the combining of existing technologies to form something new.

Do we label successful products as innovative and failed products as innovative or merely failures? My guess would be failures.

Innovation is the result of asking a question that is relevant to the situation which realizes answers outside of the existing context. This can be used for any existing process/product/service, etc.

For example I’m looking at my TV right now and wondering why the trim can’t be a different color other than grey or black…why not offer a trim selection, why are there buttons on the face if I use the remote 100% of the time? Why not make that part of the TV detachable and the trim interchangeable? It has HDTV printed on the trim, why not just make that a removable sticker since the person purchasing the TV already knows it’s HD…that’s why they bought it?

So the question is will the buyer want the technology or something that matches the decor or both? How can we mate the available to the preferred? If a buyer entertains then will the artifacts in their residence spur discussion or do we rely on their guest’s own experiences for the sole discussion points…what allows the greatest opportunity for interaction devoid of silence?

Think about a plotter making a circle, it’s a digital circle meaning that there are equal movements on the x and y axis, whereas a true circle is comprised of a center point and some point beyond moving in a continuous motion until intersection. Innovation is minimizing the equal movements on the x and y axis and invention is finding a way to create a center point and another point in constant motion until intersection.
