rodrick rajive lal's insight:
Corporate Innovation does not work, according to this article. This is surprising, but perhaps not impossible. Innovation does not when when you run out of ideas, it does not work when the processes become too overwhelming. Corporate innovation does not work when disruption fizzles out and when leadership does not offer flexibility.

Are hydrogen cars the wave of the future? Toyota thinks so.

Are hydrogen cars the wave of the future? Toyota thinks so. | Writing about Life in the digital age | Scoop.it
The current conventional wisdom is that plug-in electric vehicles will be the clean, sleek cars of tomorrow. Think of Tesla's Model S or Chevrolet's Volt. These cars get most of the media attention, and policymakers tend to toss tax breaks their way.

rodrick rajive lal's insight:

I guess this is the next big revolution to take place in technology. Hydrogen is the best alternative to Hydrocarbons which cause a lot of pollution and greenhouse gases. Electric vehicles don't have the range although they are a viable alternative in cities. Hydrogen as such is highly volatile and it requires careful handling-this would include transporting it to refuelling  stations, and its transfer into the vehicles themselves. With time to come, all these issues will be addressed, I am sure.

The engine that made America a greatest economic power was a patent system that led to tremendous innovation by incentivizing entrepreneurial inventors.

Having a lenient attitude towards infringers of copyrights and a distinct leaning in favour of corporations means that innovators and inventors no longer have the incentive to do something new! What is the point of discovering something new if someone else is going to take credit for it?

5 Signs Apple’s Era Of Dominance Is Over

5 Signs Apple’s Era Of Dominance Is Over | Writing about Life in the digital age | Scoop.it

...Media were no less giddy when it came to Apple’s media announcements – declaring intentions to live tweet these announcements and coveting their invitations to attend the media briefings in person as if they were non-transferable invitations to a royal wedding. Yet today’s Apple announcements are the latest example that this passion for the brand is slowing eroding – and along with it may go their biggest strategic advantage as well.

 

Let me explain. Apple, perhaps more than any other consumer brand, has always relied on evangelism from early consumers to propel its success. The loyal Apple devotees rave about the new device, and bring new consumers to it despite the significantly higher price tag than competitors. This raving led to their market share growth, ability to charge a premium for less and penchant for dictating unfavorable terms to strongarm partners such as mobile carriers into desperate exclusive partnerships to sell their products.

 

The big announcement of the iPhone 6 and Apple Watch today signifies that this era may be over for five reasons...

I guess this article is a reflection of what is taking place all over the world in some instances, globalization and collaboration have resulted in the passing away of Brand Dominance!   So, it is also about the end of Operating systems that come with expensive single user licences, thus you have open market solutions like Linux, and the Android operating systems. These are open operating systems and are in most cases free. Is that why Android based phones are edging over those phones which have proprietory Operating systems?
