Apple and Google stand for innovation in my mind, where Microsoft represents the hum-drum. I'm particularly interested in Microsoft, which employs so much talent. This is a follow-up question to How should Microsoft respond to Apple's iPad?.
Innovation means doing something other than what the innovators of yesterday are doing, as Uniqlo is doing with Zara and H&M.

Starting new venture involves a lot more than going cap in hand to the folks with money.
Should we all start boning up on design thinking?
The future can't be analytically derived.

The world turned upside down. The emerging world, long a source of cheap labour, now rivals the rich countries for business innovation.
Harvard Business Review provides a nice nutshell guide to management's role in innovation.
NPR provides a nice photo journal of innovations we no longer use.
According to the latest Global Innovation Index by INSEAD, Australia is losing its way as a country supportive of innovation. However, Australia's innovation outputs are on the rise.
Countries with the highest overall scores not only spend more on science and technology but also have policies that drive innovation supply and demand.
Can companies measure the impact of their innovation activities? Can they benchmark their performance on innovation against that of their peers? Can the long-term effects of innovation strategies be tracked systematically? Yes, yes, and yes. In fact, not only can companies objectively assess innovation; we believe they must. Only then will they know how to select the right strategies and execute them well.
Seventy years after the closing of the 1939 New York World's Fair, The Daily Show writer Elliott Kalan looks back at its past vision of the World of Tomorrow.
Do privately held companies have an edge when it comes to long-term innovation? At least some of them seem to. Recently, Al Gore—former Vice-President and Senator and now Nobel Prize-winning environmental evangelist—declared S.C. Johnson & Son one of the most sustainable companies in the world.
Patent volume isn't necessarily a valid proxy for innovation. A study by the Patent Board, an intellectual-property consultancy, shows there are other—and better—ways to quantify innovation. Ranked by sheer volume, Honda Motor is No. 1, with 54. That's almost twice second-place Panasonic, which has 28. Ranked by other metrics, though, Honda isn't a leader.
People's tendency to find common ground in conversation by focusing on what's familiar can stifle the most innovative thinkers.
Innovation is as American as baseball and apple pie. But some traditions can't be trademarked.
We often talk about the importance of combining disparate skills or capabilities when innovating, or holding two diametrically opposing ideas and finding the happy medium. What should be obvious is that one of the most important skills from an innovation perspective is the act and insight of synthesis.
Google tunes its approach to innovation as it tries to find a better way of turning good ideas into cash in the bank.
Globalization and web tools are starting to invalidate some of the assumptions we used when building our approaches to innovation. How should be foster innovation when ideas are commoditized?
"We live in an era of rapid innovation." What if that piece of conventional wisdom is wrong?
Many of today's largest tech companies, such as Sony, Nokia, Samsung and IBM, have been around for a very long time (some since the 1800s). Their beginnings were often very humble, and it is fascinating to look back and see how they actually got started.
How to embed innovation in an organization must be one of the most discussed, little agreed-upon topics of our time. A panel of industry heavyweights worked through the problem at Incentive 2 Innovate in July.
We hear a lot about the need for IT pros to become more business savvy, but Gartner researcher Tom Austin takes that thinking even further.
BusinessWeek select what they see as the 50 most interesting products to with IDEA (the International Design Excellence Awards) awards in the last 10 years.
People who have deep knowledge about a topic sometimes assume other people have that same knowledge. This can easily lead to miss steps when the experts assume something that isn't necessarily true.
Simon Warley's excellent presentation on what drives innovation, and why it is so hard. From Future of Web Apps, London, 2008.
Without question, nearly everyone believes the equation Apple = Innovation is a fundamental truth. Discover what makes them different.
Innovation is often found in the gaps or overlaps between domains and disciplines. An interesting unconference has been designed to bring these overlaps into sharp relief.
U.S. residents are unsure about the country's ability to remain a top innovator and the U.S. government needs to take steps to ensure its leadership, a major tech trade group said Tuesday.

A rare heterozygous TREM2 variant p.R47H (rs75932628) has been associated with an increased risk for Alzheimer's disease (AD). We aimed to investigate the clinical presentation, neuropsychological profile, and regional pattern of gray matter and white matter loss associated with the TREM2 variant p.R47H, and to establish which regions best differentiate p.R47H carriers from noncarriers in 2 sample sets (Spanish and Alzheimer's Disease Neuroimaging Initiative, ADNI1).
This was a cross-sectional study including a total number of 16 TREM2 p.R47H carriers diagnosed with AD or mild cognitive impairment, 75 AD p.R47H noncarriers and 75 cognitively intact TREM2 p.R47H noncarriers. Spanish AD TREM2 p.R47H carriers showed apraxia (9 of 9) and psychiatric symptoms such as personality changes, anxiety, paranoia, or fears more frequently than in AD noncarriers (corrected p = 0.039). For gray matter and white matter volumetric brain magnetic resonance imaging voxelwise analyses, we used statistical parametric mapping (SPM8) based on the General Linear Model.
We used 3 different design matrices with a full factorial design. Voxel-based morphometry analyses were performed separately in the 2 sample sets. The absence of interset statistical differences allowed us to perform joint and conjunction analyses. Independent voxel-based morphometry analysis of the Spanish set as well as conjunction and joint analyses revealed substantial gray matter loss in orbitofrontal cortex and anterior cingulate cortex with relative preservation of parietal lobes in AD and/or mild cognitive impairment TREM2 p.R47H carriers, suggesting that TREM2 p.R47H variant is associated with certain clinical and neuroimaging AD features in addition to the increased TREM2 p.R47H atrophy in temporal lobes as described previously.
The high frequency of pathologic behavioral symptoms, combined with a preferential frontobasal gray matter cortical loss, suggests that frontobasal and temporal regions could be more susceptible to the deleterious biological effects of the TREM2 variant p.R47H.

For six years, the south of the country has seen house prices increase at a greater rate than the north, however this year housing analysts are predicting that this trend could be about to change.
The Guardian reported this week that house values in the capital are set to fall by 3.6% following "years of over-performance". The Centre of Economics and Business Research (CEBR), who produced the research, also said that house prices across the country will generally rise by 1.5%. It is the first time in six years that prices countrywide have risen faster than London.
As expected, the London market is being hit by the upcoming election with factors such as Labour's proposed 'Mansion Tax' putting buyers off investing until after the outcome.

Similarly like San Francisco, Prague has its Asian district too. The huge marketplace SAPA, so called little Hanoi, is a city in a city. The repairs will take a while, though. Most of the 25 hectares of he area burned away. The firefighters fight for sixteen hours.
Most of the main market hall (entrance was only with trade licence) burned down, exhausting clouds of black smoke over half of the metropolis. We can only guess, how much of 'branded goods' burned, the hall was big like two football fields on each other.
How many Asians move at the the market is unknown, the City Hall doesn't have any numbers. There is even a little Buddhist shrine, Asian branch of the health insurance company, bars, gambling houses, big restaurants for 600 and 1000 people, two newspaper-publishing houses.


Bayuda is the name of the region defined by the large bend in the Nile's course between the Sudanese cities of Omdurman and Korti. The desert-like landscape is characterized by stretches of gravel and boulders as well as extensive expanses of sand. The centre of the Bayuda is marked by an impressive currently inactive volcanic region. Wadis that transport the annual rainfall to the Nile originate here and from a few other mountain ranges in the area.
The Bayuda region has been scarcely explored archaeologically. In the last decades, however, interest in the ancient remains of this desert increased. Nevertheless, only few steps have been taken so far to develop an archaeological map and understanding of the region. One of the most exiting facts to note is the difference of the ancient features compared to the archaeological sites the Nile valley. Up to now, no temples, pyramids, and palaces in the Kushite style could have been located. Besides Ghazali, that is quite close to the river Nile, there is also no church known yet, so that the Bayuda even differs from the 4th cataract region.
The aim of the conference is to bring together archaeologists working in or about the Bayuda and studying this region from Palaeolithic to quite recent times. Within this interdisciplinary dialogue we want to present the current state of research and try to define the main research questions for future explorations. One of the main tasks is to discover if the cultural remains constitute a homogeneous horizon in the Bayuda itself and if and how it differs from other areas in the Middle Nile region. This question as well as many others can be discussed at the gathering in Münster, 10.-12.September 2015.

Online Short Fiction Course
Younger Writers
CAROLINE SMAILES INTERVIEW
I mentioned a little while ago that I'd just finished reading what could end up being my book of the year. It was the incredibly good, Black Boxes, a book that one of my favourite writers, Sarah Salway, described as 'Heartbreaking… and very, very good'. Sarah Salway is not wrong.
So I'm delighted to be able to welcome Black Boxes' author, the truly lovely Caroline Smailes to my blog, to chat a little.
So, Caroline, Black Boxes, who's it for and what's it about?
Who's it for? I guess anyone who likes to read modern fiction, who is open minded, non-judgemental, flexible, who understands loss, who has ever felt like they don't belong, who has suffered from bullying or postnatal depression, and anyone who has regrets.
What's it about? Black Boxes tells the story of Ana Lewis, a 37 year old single mum who is struggling with depression. Right at the beginning of the novel, the reader learns that Ana has taken an overdose of pills and that she is dying. Black Boxes is the story of Ana, and of the children she neglects, of Pip and of Davie. My description makes it all sound a bit too depressing, but I do believe that there is a happily ever after within the story (in an unconventional way, of course).
How does it compare to your debut, In Search Of Adam?
My debut was slightly darker and more people threw In Search of Adam across the room or into the bin. There are themes that link the two – abuse, loss, longing, love, parental neglect and fairytales. But Black Boxes is possibly more insular and experimental.
What do the words 'Post Natal Depression' mean to you?
Having experienced PND, I'd say sadness, loneliness, confusion, frustration, embarrassment – but mainly, loss.
How did the poetic structure (Ana's narration in Black Boxes) come about? It works incredibly well; was it something you chose to do, or did it simply happen?
I'd love to be able to say that my creative decisions were cleverly developed and planned before I started writing, but they weren't. Everything that I write just happens. The poetic structure comes mainly from the layout and typography, that need to give the words a voice and for them to fit with the concept behind the novel. Black Boxes pulls on the model of a black box recording device that is examined after a crash. This idea has been taken and applied to the crash of Ana. So, I guess, the poetic structure is to give voice and noise.
Which voice, Ana's or Pips, came first and which came the easiest?
The teenager daughter's voice, Pip's voice, came first and was the easiest. I love writing teenage voice. I wrote Pip's section of the novel first, pulling on my own teenage diaries to establish the voice and then developed Ana's story to give depth to Pip's.
What's your writing process?
I write the first 10,000 words without plan or structure in a very 'free' way. I write to find and establish voice. Then, I look for and develop an overall story and plot, a beginning to an end with character outlines for consistency. Then, I write the rest of the first draft quickly, in a continuous story-stream from beginning to end, without reworking. Then I redraft and redraft and craft and redraft. Each of my three novels has taken about eleven months from start to final draft.
What's your worst writing habit?
Being anal and precious. (That's two!)
'Caroline Smailes' is going to be entered into the OED and you can pick its definition. What would it say?
A strange species, known mainly for its tit-being-ness and peculiar celebrity crushes.
Tell us a secret.
I have a list of things that a psychic told me to do and said would happen to me. One was regarding the sign language pictures in Black Boxes and was told before I had written the novel. Many of the predictions have already happened, but the remaining ones are truly exciting.
Any advice you'd like to give to (aspiring) writers reading this?
Never ever ever give up.
I've finished my third novel, Like Bees to Honey and my agent is currently negotiating the deal. It's a terrifying time. At the moment I'm writing my fourth novel, with tight weekly word count targets and I hope to have finished the first draft by the end of May.
Anything you'd like to add?
Thank you, lovely Nik.

Good interview but I am a bit dissapointed that Caroline didn't mention her magic wand at least once.

Some lovely funny details in this interview. The Richard and Judy bit made me laugh…for me it's more 'The sound of music.' Oh god…x
Thanks for stopping by, folks – glad you enjoyed it.Nik

Nik, I've had a great book recommendation from you via this website recently (Jenn Ashworth's novel) so I will definitely be looking out for this one 🙂
Yay! That's a wonderful thing to hear. I really loved Black Boxes – hope you enjoy it just as much.Nik

Great interview. Possibly makes me less likely to read the books to be honest – but I chatted to Caroline about that the other night so i know she won't be offended!

I'm sure she won't be offended either. Glad you liked the interview and thanks for stopping by.Nik
