Now consumer goods have not seen a truly disruptive and innovative campaign like this in a long time if you ask me!! Sending regular guys to space - that my friend is very cool !! 

Read the New York Times article on it here http://nyti.ms/UZrp2Z 

The business model for most street artists is based on tips from passer-by’s.. Last night in the London Underground, I came across this artist looking at it in a disruptive way and using the opportunity digital tools provide to market his services as the main reason to play his music there (making the tips a secondary revenue stream). Its simple, but I thought its disruptive stuff that we might be able to learn something from and look at our business challenges in different ways !! Feel free to bounce off any ideas :-)

Good find by Cnet’s Stephen Shankland:

It looks like Chrome users, not just Android users, will get access to Google Now, the search giant’s technology for bringing weather reports, trip departure reminders, birthday alerts, nearby restaurant reviews, and more to the attention of Android users.

Google Now is one of the few recent Google software projects I’m legitimately excited about. It’s very well done and seemingly getting better by the day.

A sneak peak at ‘google now’ was very exciting, I am looking forward to more from google’s core product teams!!

"When I go into my living room and turn on the TV, I feel like I have gone backwards in time by 20 to 30 years. It’s an area of intense interest. I can’t say more than that."

Tim Cook, to NBC News’ Brian Williams.

Yeah, that’s about as close to a confirmation of the project as you’re going to get out of Apple…

A disruption in television is sure coming, that too from the masters #Apple !!

Experiments are important, because doing something new will be what sets you apart from the others, and ultimately will be your key to success. But experiments in their nature will inevitably lead you to failure. Sorry, but it’s true. What’s crucial is that you take that failure, learn from it, and get back on the horse and start the cycle all over again. Each time you’ll be a bit more wise, and eventually, you’ll get it. by StartupVitamins

True that! Experimenting and learning needs courage and a culture that celebrates setting high goals and missing them as better than setting simple goals and achieving them. Coz u only learn outside your comfort zone. So go on and experiment and if u fail, just learn from it. Go do some disruptive stuff :-)

From coffee to condoms, there’s a subscription service for everyone these days.
Now you don’t have to wait until Xmas to get fun packages on your doorstep!

Cud subscription services completely disrupt the shopping experience and traditional consumer products industry? Is the Ice berg slowly melting with the traditional barriers to entry melting away… Definitely something to think about…

Rotten is a series of photographs of all the moldy food that a photographer found in his fridge over the course of a year. He hoped that by documenting it, he’d let it happen less. Will the same thing happen when you look at it?

Disruptive method to reduce food waste!!
