Innovation: The Next New Thing; we can learn a lot from software
In a few months from now the CPH127-community will have 1 year anniversary. Since the very beginning we aimed for a broad approach to design, innovation and leadership. I think we succeeded, didn’t we?
But one of the problems I think al great weblogs are facing is the hidden content. Every weblog has a achieve-section but how often do YOU really use this section?
The reason why I’m asking this is because I recently got an e-mail from one of the readers of CPH127 – he asked me if I could help him finding a post from last spring about Doblins 10 types of Innovation. I did of course find it but it raised a question in my mind about starting reposting some of the old “stuff” – would that be a good idea or is it only me that has the need to refresh my mind sometimes?
Or is their another format who could make it as a catch-up?
Please let me know?

Dear passengers, pilots and other airborne personel…
I just learned that you could vote for the best design blog over at http://ad-rag.com/battleoftheadblogs/question10.php
I find it interesting that CPH127 made it’s way to the survey but it also tells me that the design discussion – and our common sense-making here at CPH127 - has broadened the understand beyond what most people thinks design is all about. Or has it really?
If you look at some of the other “candidates” you will see that other “definitions” also are in play. What that really tells me is that the term is multifaceted and always worth a discussion.
What do you think is the right definition?
…..and please vote…..for CPH127
