Re: Innovation: Is it the product or the process that changes the game?

Perhaps Dell's innovations were enough, but they didn't keep improving as Toyota does?

And, notice that Toyota does do some great design. The Prius is a hot product, as are their pickup trucks. And their concept cars are some of the most inventive in the industry. Like the librarian's lingerie, Toyota is secretly very sexy.

Just to build on what Jim said regarding this stat, "the divorce rate hovering around 50%" -- this is the rate of marriages, not married people. In other words, some people get married and divorced several times, driving up this statistic, while others stay happily married for their whole lives.

Re: Social Feed Aggregators

"Flat" is a good way to describe FriendFeed. I signed up, and soon wished they had a way to delete my account, but they don't even have that.

SocialThing looks a lot more readable.

But when it comes to aggregation, I have to wonder if it's 'turtles turtles turtles all the way down' -- no end to it.

Maybe FeedBurner is the answer, and then we can all pick our own favorite (RSS reader) client!

After many years of mousing and thumbing, my right thumb gets sore easily and I moved my mouse to the left side. So this aspect of the iPhone is actually attractive to me. :)

"Only...audio cues"? There's a ton of research there too! (I'm prejudiced, it's what I did in grad school)... http://www.icad.org/
