		<description><![CDATA[I make a distinction between creativity and innovation. I define innovation as &#8220;Profitably satisfying unmet desires.&#8221; Profitable doesn&#8217;t just mean money, it means better satisfying the desires of everyone involved. A new device or way of doing something won&#8217;t be accepted unless it makes things better for everyone who is needed to make it happen. [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve developed a method that allows you to predict all innovations for any product, service or entire industry. Innovation is an information processing activity. To innovate you gather, analyze, organize, and then put information to use. Innovation is more than just thoughts and dreams. To make innovation real you must do something. To successfully innovate [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[One of the traits of a great innovation is how obvious it appears once you&#8217;ve seen it. Unfortunately a lot of frustration can occur trying to explain the innovation to people who haven&#8217;t yet grasped the concept. Often it feels like you are trying to explain the innovation to an idiot. While this might be [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[In a comment to Economics Of Abundance Getting Some Well Deserved Attention a reader complained that there isn&#8217;t an infinite supply of good books, good music, and movies. This is flatly false, there&#8217;s an infinite supply of any intellectual property and it can be mathematically proven. How is that for being emphatic?
