[EssentiaList] The Change, Jargon & Idea Edition

Monday, March 10th, 2008

1. Adoption of New Technology since 1900
Historical graph showing the adoption of new technologies in the United States. I think the similarities between the adoption of the color TV and the Internet is interesting.

Care to postulate anyone?

2. The Top 10 Changes in My Business Thinking

#6 is by far my favorite: “Your plans will probably be wrong on anything that is new, so you may as well just start doing.”

3. Ideas Are A Dime A Dozen

So true, but it’s also all too easy to forget that “…coming up with ideas is an evolutionary process. Just because an idea has to die, does not mean the good parts of it can’t live on in its ancestors.”

4. Stop Speaking in Jargon
“Anyone who thinks using buzzwords will make them sound intelligent is wrong. Clarity impresses. Buzzwords confuse.”

Amen.

5. Billionaire College Dropouts

Further proof you should never underestimate the underdog: “Some of them didn’t even graduate from high school, yet they went on to amass enormous fortunes and create humanity-changing companies…these examples prove that for the truly intelligent, motivated, and brave, there may be better ways to spend several youthful years than sitting in a classroom.”
