User-led innovation

I’m Johnnie Moore, and I help people work better together

Another interesting event from my friends at NESTA: Harnessing user-led innovation – Wednesday 16th July 2008, 10.30am – 12.30pm

On Wednesday 16th July 2008, NESTA will launch its latest research report ‘The New Inventors: How users are changing the rules of innovation.’…
Why is user-led innovation becoming so valuable? How do firms harness the power of user-led innovation? And what is the role of policy in stimulating it?
To investigate this phenomenon, last year NESTA commissioned a major new piece of research from the Centre for Research in Innovation Management (CENTRIM), University of Brighton, and the Science Technology Policy Research Unit (SPRU), University of Sussex.
Please join us to hear about the findings and to discuss the implications for policy and practice.

Spam comments and the power of community

I’ve just started to suffer from Spam comments the latest effort by these wretches to publicise their sites. They basically post fatuous comments to weblogs

Google translates compliments well… but strangles a lot of stuff!

At the NGO conference (blogged yeserday and the day before) I met Martin Roell a German blogger and e-business guru. He’s blogged the event in

SharpReader

I’ve finally started paying attention to RSS and all this stuff about “Blog Aggregators”. The final shove was wanting to get Martin Roell’s English feed.
