Let me tell you a true story. A friend of my who likes to collect domain names was describing a few that he had acquired. While he has a wide range of domains in various categories, these particular domains were all related to web hosting. Some of the domain names were similar to existing web hosting company names (or derivatives of web hosting company names). Others simply had ?hosting?, ?host?, or a related term in the domain itself.

« Three smiths, three hammers, one bra. »

I've been thinking about enrolling in the University of Nigeria's courses in economics lately since it seems to work pretty well for the graduates. It made me wonder what such a business proposal would look like if it came from Finland instead of Nigeria. Just think of what advanced fee methodologies could do for Finnish enterprise!

URGENT AND CONFIDENTIAL

ATTN:PRESIDENT/CEO

REQUEST FOR URGENT BUSINESS PROPOSAL

My name is Väinämöinen from Kaleva and I am in dire need of assistance. Your name and address from a mutual close friend who indicated that you would be discreet and helpful.

My people have lost an item of unimaginable wealth to the Mistress of the North, Louhi. The sampo, forged by my good friend the smith Ilmarinen, is capable of producing unlimited amounts of salt, flour and money for those who possess it. Ilmarinen was rewarded for his creation with a wife as he was promised, but I have led many ill-fated attempts to recoup the sampo from the evil Louhi and we need your help.

The sampo is in a Pohjola safe deposit box but, alas, I cannot get to it because of Louhi and my people are starving and dying of the cold. If you can send us $150,000 to buy food and munitions with, we will give you a 25% share the endless wealth of the sampo when we have recovered it.

This is a totally risk-free proposal and the return on your investment to save my people will be infinite wealth! Please treat this matter as very urgent.

Best regards,

Väinämöinen

This page is located at the Center for Methodology and Informatics at the Faculty of Social Sciences , University of Ljubljana, Slovenia. The core research team (Katja Lozar Manfreda, Zenel Batagelj, Ga?per Koren, Vesna Dolni?ar), lead by dr. Vasja Vehovar, studied the Web survey methodology for three years. They work on two Web surveys, the national RIS (Research on Internet in Slovenia) project and the RINE (Research on Internet in New Europe) project. They actively participate at conferences, and their results are available on the Web. This is listed in my April 2004 column Survey Resources on the Internet.

Disruptive Innovation: The Need for a
Better Methodology

Disruptive Innovation: The Need for a
Better Methodology 06/05/2005 11:12 PM

The Innovator's Solution tells you what you need to do to cannibalize the markets of incumbents and create entirely new markets, by focusing on the needs of over-served customers and non-customers. But it's a lot harder in practice than in theory, and it needs some unique skills and hard-to-obtain knowledge. [Posted from Orlando] In previous articles, I've summarized Clay Christensen's approach to innovation (established companies focus on what he calls 'sustaining' innovations while new entrants focus on 'disruptive' ones), and about the research approach that he suggests for identifying and assessing innovation opportunities. His second book, The Innovator's Solution, looks in greater detail at disruptive innovation, which he breaks into two types: Low End Disruptive Innovation: This entails offering a lower-cost product to existing over-served customers, which incumbents don't care about because they're at the low-margin end of their customer base; then as technology improves, the disruptor gradually eats into the incumbents' primary markets from below. The classic example of this is steel minimills, which initially focused on the low-end, low-margin rebar market (which the integrated steel makers were pleased to vacate), but then used new technology to move upscale to the point they have now stolen even the high-end market (sheet steel) from the giants. To achieve this, it's essential that the innovation not be suitable to or adaptable by the incumbents -- that they don't find the disruptor's initial business model attractive; otherwise, the incumbents will bring their considerable resources and strong customer relationships to bear to make the innovation a 'sustaining' one for them, and ward off and defeat the disruption attempt. New Market Disruptive Innovation: This entails developing and offering a product with benefits previously not available at all or which are very inconvenient to customers, and hence creating entirely new markets for entirely new groups of customers. The personal computer and personal copier are examples of this. In some cases a New Market Disruptive Innovation can later be applied to become a Low End Disruptive Innovation as well. The part of Innovator's Solution that most intrigued me was the section on how to identify potential disruptions and how to identify customers for them. To identify potential disruptions, he suggests, you should 'segment' the market by the circumstances of use of the product or potential product (i.e. what the product gets 'hired to do' or what 'job it does' that needs to be done), rather than by customer identity (demographics) or product attributes (category). The focus is therefore on when/why/how it would it be used, not what it would feature or who would use it. This is a needs-driven strategy, requiring a lot of research & cultural anthropology. It means discovering who needs 'coolth', and when and how they need it, not who needs an air conditioner. This is hard for established, risk-averse, inflexible companies to do because: they have a fear of too much focus (putting all their eggs in one basket, in case it's the wrong basket); their shareholders and existing line managers insist on being able to quantify outcomes in advance; their existing channels are organized by product or customer demographic, not circumstances of use; and their advertising and branding are also done by product or customer demographic. Hence it is often best to have the innovation in established companies done by a new, autonomous division or group, free from the constraints, prejudices, risk-aversion and 'why rock the boat' thinking of the existing operations. To identify customers for disruptive innovations, Christensen says you need to look for: People and companies who have a need but lack the money or skill to meet it with existing products; People and companies who have no alternative way today to do the job your product or service could help them do; and, of course, People and companies who are over-served, interested in a lower-cost, simpler product without all the extraneous and rarely-used bells and whistles of current products. It's important that these potential customers perceive the product to be 'foolproof': easy to use, easy to learn, easy to buy (though if the product is for recreational use, customers may buy a product with a steeper learning curve if the learning is fun). Equally important is that there be available, and hungry, channel partners (sources of supply, distributors, retailers, marketers etc.) to help you get it to market -- if these partners and their materials and skills are scarce, or disinterested in you, customers may give up on you before you're able to deliver reliably. The rest of the book provides suggestions on the right roles for your company in developing the innovation, how to partner with other appropriate companies to optimize competencies and synergy, how to find the non-commodity, high profit points in the customer value chain, the importance of setting up the right people, process, values, alliances and organizational structure for innovation, how to align your strategy to support innovation (using an emergent, complex system-friendly strategy), and how to address financing and risk issues in innovation ventures. The final section addresses the role of senior management in disruptive innovation. Leaders, he says, must exercise three key responsibilities: (a) allocate appropriate, patient resources; (b) establish a process to continuously generate disruptive innovations; and (c) detect and adapt to changes in markets and other elements of the system. The four elements of a 'disruptive growth engine' therefore are: start before you need to (don't wait for a crisis); put a senior manager in charge (executive sponsorship is essential); create an expert team of movers and shapers (and allow them to 'self-manage' the people, processes, and values to keep them in sync with the commercialization process for disruptive innovations); and train the troops (i.e. customer-facing people to discover and tap into emerging and potential needs) In these areas, Christensen is on comfortable and solid ground. But I keep coming back in my thinking to how an organization can actually apply his earlier advice on how to identify potential disruptive innovations and how to identify customers for them (and which comes first anyway?) It's a lot easier in theory than it is in practice, as I can tell you from personal experience. Let's take the example of a company that has expertise in the textile industry, for example. They have an established market in specialized blankets, and some scientific expertise in weaving and in thermal properties of materials. If they're threatened by new low-cost Asian competitors in this mature market space, how would they go about becoming a disruptive innovator? They wouldn't talk to existing customers -- that's for sustaining innovation not disruptive innovation. They wouldn't do competitive analysis -- except perhaps if they could identify some over-served customers. Other than raw imagination and a lot of serendipitous reading and lateral thinking, it's hard to imagine how such a company, even with a separate, empowered innovation team, could begin to identify either the unmet needs within their competency to deliver, or the customers that have these needs. What Christensen needs to add is a whole process to surface these needs and customers. Who, other than established buyers of blankets, might be interested in textiles with thermal properties? Hospitals and doctors dealing with hypothermia? Insulation companies? Gardeners and farmers seeking to protect crops from frost? Swimming pool cover manufacturers? Expedition outfitters? And since good thermal properties also insulate against heat, should we also consider cooler manufacturers, refrigerators, umbrella makers, UV-ray protectors etc.? The possibilities are endless. How do we effectively brainstorm and then filter the potential customers and potential opportunities? The answer, I think, is a discovery process, but one somewhat different and more dependent on brainstorming, creativity, very broad environmental scanning, research, cultural anthropology and exploratory conversations than the one I have suggested< /a> for achieving understanding in complex situations. How, do you think, should such a discovery process be structured? If it were your job to develop the process to find new customers for new products meeting new untapped needs, that are within your company's competency to provide, how would you go about it? This process just might be the holy grail of entrepreneurship.

Paranoia game redesigned using
open-source methodology

Paranoia game redesigned using
open-source methodology 08/06/2004 07:52 AM
Paranoia, the classic role-playing game in which players battle a mad, totalitarian computer for their freedom ("a light-hearted game of terror, death, bureaucracy, mad scientists, mutants, dangerous weapons, insane robots, and technological satire that encourages players to lie, cheat, and backstab each other at every turn") has just re-launched with a new version that was collaboratively developed with players via a Wiki, borrowing "the tools and methods of open-source software development for a paper game."

To a large degree, the game was developed online, in public. Fans of the game contributed enthusiastically via blog, wiki, and online forum. They wrote text, debated rules, proofread, ran statistical analyses, and even wrote a computer simulator to test the game's paper-and-pencil rules.

"Online collaboration made this edition of Paranoia the best yet," said Allen Varney (www.allenvarney.com), the game's designer. "We borrowed the tools and methods of open-source software development for a paper game, and it worked brilliantly. I plan to create future games the same way, and other designers should consider it too."

Interviews with electronic music
pioneers 03/30/2005 02:35 PM
David Pescovitz: New Scientist interviews three pioneering inventors of electronic music technology. Bob Moog invented the Moog synthesizer, Dave Smith is the father of MIDI, Peter Vogel co-founded digital sampler trailblazer Fairlight Instruments. From the conversation with Vogel:

How did you come to work in electronic music?

I was interested in electronics. In a way, being interested in music and not being able to play was a big motivator for me to come up with an instrument that you could make music on without having to do the hard yards at the keyboard. It was sort of advanced laziness. It transpired it would have been a lot easier to learn to play the keyboard, but that's the benefit of hindsight...

What are you working on now?

I'm working on a system for recording TV without the commercials. There will never be any chip you can put in your TV to do this because it's too complicated and expensive. What is required is a signal that is transmitted via a different medium. Our Intelligent Content Engine is now being integrated into recorders and set-top boxes so that when you buy a personal video recorder you can get one that automatically removes the commercials. [The system was launched in Australia in March.]

Thanks, Bloggies! BB wins best group
bl0g, and bl0g of the year! 03/14/2005 05:29 PM
Xeni Jardin: Boing Boing pal Scott Beale informs us that our blog just won Group Weblog of the Year at the Bloggies. OMG! What a huge honor! Thank you, Bloggies. We honestly didn't expect this, and we are deeply moved and grateful. There were many other deserving blogs up for awards, backed by talented folks who work very hard, and we raise our collective pirate-eye-patches in their honor: check 'em all out. On behalf of my blog-mates Cory Doctorow, Mark Frauenfelder, and David Pescovitz; our wise "band manager" John Battelle; our sysadmin par excellence Ken Snider; and the rest of the team and extended family that makes Boing Boing possible -- a humble thank you. But most of all, we are grateful to you, our readers, for wasting otherwise productive time on our collective scrapbook of "wonderful things," and for pointing us to even more of those wonderful and undiscovered things each day. We're really sorry that we couldn't make it to SXSW in person to accept the award, but we hope you'll join us in celebrating in person tomorrow at ETCON ( all five of us will be in the same place for the first time). Boing Boing sprouted online a little over five years ago, from paper zine roots planted by Mark Frauenfelder and Carla Sinclair. It is a privilege to blog for you. With you, we look forward to another adventurous year of link-discuss to come. Link

Update: Holy crap! Reader Nathaneal Heasley sez, "Not only did BB win best group ‘blog, it won “blog of the year/best weblog overall� – congratulations!" For those keeping track, this is the second year in a row Boing Boing has received these two awards: Link to 2004, Link to 2005. Man. We're speechless, and overwhelmed by your generosity.

I’ve joined the staff of MarketingWonk as the new moderator of I-Blog, an email discussion list focused on the use of weblogs in business and marketing. I’ll also be posting news that might be of interest to the marketing and blogging community at MarketingWonk.

The first issue of the list digest under my leadership went out a few minutes ago. Subscribers to I-Blog will recognize that this is the first new issue in months and may wonder what that means. The list is being restarted after a hiatus and a change in moderators. Rick did a great job in getting the list started and setting the tone, now it’s my job to help the list realize it’s full potential.

For the forseeable future, issues will come out weekly, but as discussion picks up, we may move to twice a week. Right now I’d rather have a quality list that comes out less often than to try to fill too many issues at once.

If you are interested in what blogging means to businesses, subscribe to I-Blog.

The new Blogger came out finally, and it looks terrific. I've already heard some comments that it's too dumbed down, but I think it's perfect for a new audience while at the same time isn't insulting to seasoned users.

One of the many new features at Blogger is the ability to have comments, and when I followed Ev's comment link and ended up at the Comment Sign In, I started cracking up.

After a couple months of hand-wringing over Typekey, Blogger basically relaunched with a more restrictive version of Typekey (no anon comments?), but I doubt we'll hear bad things about it. Maybe Sixapart should have just launched Typekey without telling anyone about it first. :)

Other notable things include great new all-CSS designs (that make blogspot/google ads on top look kinda assy), single post archives, and the new archive URL scheme. It's almost like they optimized Blogger blogs for search engines, which is kind of weird since it's Google running the service.

I'm totally amazed that they got keystrokes to work on the mac (in firefox). I've been struggling with the javascript that a couple friends gave me for MetaFilter comment boxes. I got keystrokes to work in Moz and IE on windows, but could never figure out how to make them work on a Mac. I'll have to steal the js for my other sites.

Overall I think it's a great redo of the service and site. They took on some of the features of Movable Type, but not enough for power users (when they allow for unlimited template creation and editing, then more people will try them out for complex blogs), while at the same time making the service easy enough for the 99.9999% of the population that has never posted anything online in their lives. This new design may just be the thing that jumps the chasm for blogs, making them more mainstream than ever.
