It will be gone in a few weeks again but I have seen so many versions of them it must be one of the virals ofr 2013 already. Im still waiting for a brand to create a version and with this version claim ownership of the shake online.

This article shows lessons we can learn from bezos on how to push ecommerce and innovation.

Especialy the innovation part and the “two-pizza rule” made a lot of sense to me. It is what I always call “avoid the polish landtag” somehow there’s not an english wiki on this, but in general it means…. Don’t get huge teams with everyone involved…

Read on in the article i curated and selected to feature on my blog below….

When current and aspiring tech entrepreneurs are asked who they look up to the most, they give the usual names: Steve Jobs, Elon Musk, Mark Zuckerberg, and maybe a few will mention Bill Gates. But, unfortunately, there aren’t many who mention Jeff Bezos, founder and CEO of Amazon.

Mixing the physical world with the virtual one seemed to be a bit weird. I didn’t see a real application and predicted it would take a very long time before we would actually get this in our daily lives.

While in line at the silicon graphics really theater I had a long talk with a researcher of intel who was only working on 3d scene building from multiple cameras. I was wondering why intel was spending money in this. But it turns out those companies all saw the future very early.

Being ahead of the curve is a challenge but also with the amount of money put into it you can create the curve.
Later in 2010 the internet of things became more of a buzzword. Everything we see and have around us would get connected in its own way and be part of the internet of things. But now with google we see the mix of things and virtual. Into a internet of things solution. Now it looks like we will have projector devices in our rooms but i think we should see this combines with google glass.

When you wear augmented reality glasses and we have sensory input like this internet of things world we would have seamless augmented reality. Will we actually see the real and virtual borders anymore?

Imagine a world where everything is real… Of is it?!

Very quick to setup a survey and it has all intelligence. When you actually go for the paid versions, it even blends in with your company workflow even better.

I ran into this article with even more options, I should try…
