The Bee's Knees: November 2005

The very best of nothing. Thursday, November 03, 2005. Innovation and the Technology S-Curve. When I looked at sales figures of the product I was working on, I could immediately make out the s-curve: rapid growth at one stage of the product life cycle and a subsequent flattening. This is what it might look like. The concept of the S-Curve was first introduced by Richard Foster in the book Innovation: The Attackers Edge. What is the driver of an s-curve? David J. Anderson discusses. The Bee's Knees on RSS.

The very best of nothing. Tuesday, August 30, 2005. Creating Successful Entrepreneurial Ventures in IT. Recently an article in the "Communications of the ACM" (June 2005, volume 48, no 6) caught my eye. Having worked in two startups one which failed and the other which seems to be sustaining itself well, I found some lessons to be learnt. The article outlines 4 factors critical for the success of a startup:. 1) Growth Rate of the Market. 2) Timing of Market Entry. A typical P&L statement of a hi tech com...

The Bee's Knees: January 2006
http://thebsknees.blogspot.com/2006_01_01_archive.html
The very best of nothing. Tuesday, January 10, 2006. Innovation and its Diffusion. Much of the paranoia surrounding technology, sometimes sounds misplaced. As a technologist, it is perhaps correct for me to fantasize about being at the forefront of technology, always harp on the trends that technology seem to be taking. It is correct to do so becuase, this is what will drive us to constantly innovate. If most of all my technical fantasies aren't helping the end users, then what is the point? He explores ...

The very best of nothing. Tuesday, August 17, 2004. Broadcast Censorship: The Need to Control. Some time ago, the issue on censorship surfaced (once again) amongst my friends. The discussions proceeded on very interesting lines, so I decided to do some reading (and writing! I plan to write to articles on the topic. In this one, I'll cover censorship of broadcast media. before I proceed to share my findings on the psychology and sociology of censorship, which should be quite interesting! These notions do ...

The Bee's Knees: July 2004
http://thebsknees.blogspot.com/2004_07_01_archive.html
The very best of nothing. Thursday, July 22, 2004. Why don't firms grow indefinitely? In my last blog, I had had pointed out a suggestion that a firm primarily exists because of the existence of marketing costs. But then a firm could keep growing and growing eliminating all market transactions. Obviously, there have to be certain reasons why this does not happen. In effect, the firm will expand till the cost of doing any extra transaction within the firm equals the cost of doing the same thing in the ope...

The very best of nothing. Friday, August 12, 2005. Top 20 Innovative companies in the world. I'm slowly beginning to understand why so many cry about innovation and yet fail to do so, the more complex the organization, the worst the situation is. It is then that you begin to admire some of these companies. I notice some of my most admired companies on the list:. Microsoft: I have grown to admire this company like no other! They are creating a word for themselves in the dictionary! 3M: A company I did not...
