As the motto of the Inter­na­tional Expo­si­tion held in Chicago in 1933 boldly pro­claimed, “Sci­ence Finds — Indus­try Applies — Man Conforms.”

Prob­a­bly we are all sons of that period, all the infor­ma­tion col­lected in years and years of study and exper­i­ments are now col­lapsed into the net, and we are the one that use all of these stuff in some ways, some­times in the same way…

Is it too obscure? I’m try­ing to explain. The need for search­ing and scout­ing the mar­ket, the research made of col­lect­ing info from sev­eral sources, bring us to nav­i­gate the same Inter­net or read the same news­pa­pers, vis­it­ing and dis­cussing and using the same sub­jects. As an exam­ple, I nor­mally dis­cuss with col­leagues about news and tech­nolo­gies and, as nor­mally hap­pens, we are already aware about everything.

What does it mean? It is going to became unusual that some­one came out with a really new thing to talk about, and when it hap­pens many of us are more afraid about they miss the thing, than happy about the infor­ma­tion they received. What’s going on, boys?

Why do I blog this?

Two main phases for researchers and inno­va­tors: we’re going to be only (1) researcher, some­times testers, but (2) inno­va­tion is made of reflec­tions about things we find, or that some­one sug­gested us. Take a breath, and don’t fill up your mind with things that waste your time and anes­thetize your sensitivity.
