Apple is still a company that sets the standards of fashion for gadgets. This is an excellent example of the close and fruitful cooperation of designers and engineers who think together about, how do, like stuffing the powerful,so and attractive appearance, which is close to perfection.

L'idée est la suivante : une commission de planification ou une petite entreprise investit quelques centaines de dollars pour lancer le jeu. Les joueurs s'inscrivent sur la plate-forme communautaire, et prennent part à des « missions » au cours desquelles ils seront amenés à faire des propositions d'amélioration des lieux qu'ils pratiquent au quotidien. Chaque participation leur fait gagner des points, qui seront ensuite convertis en argent réel pour financer les meilleures propositions. Via ADEUPa, Apres, association concert urbain, Bernard BRUNET

Ça rencontre un autre article à propos de la simulation d'une université, un autre article à propos de la reproduction de Shangaï. Bref, il me semble que se dessine une tendance, avec l'aide des données massivement disponibles, d'une reproduction voire d'une émulation de politiques locales et même plus ambitieuses qui pourrait supplanter les théories économiques, urbanistiques et autres

Innovation: It's something everyone is in favor of, everyone likes the idea of, yet no one really understands it, according to Wharton legal studies and business ethics professor Kevin Werbach. Werbach moderated a panel on the topic at the recent Wharton Economic Summit 2013 held in New York City, during which he challenged the participants to define innovation, talk about its relationship to entrepreneurship, and explain what is needed to nurture it.

Why can't business always look for the simple way of expressing what are usually complex concepts. As I thinki Albert Einstein once said, "make things simple but not simpler." These charts become talking sticks, home bases around which the complex and necessary conversations take place. These charts provide the focus and the context. What a beautiful thing!

Créer chez soi un objet en 3 dimensions, c’est possible. Plusieurs fabricants (3DSystems, MakerBot, Solidoodle...) commercialisent des imprimantes 3D à destination du grand public, des espèces de gros cubes ouverts au milieu desquels va et vient une tête d’impression qui dépose de la matière par couches successives, finissant par créer des formes en 3 dimensions. Nous avons pris en main l’une d’entre elles : la Cube, de 3DSystems. Via Bernard BRUNET Delete the scoop?

Une crise est une excellente période pour créer une entreprise ! C’est une bonne période, car c’est un moment où le réel, avec sa dureté, cesse de se dérober : ce qui marchait bien marche moins bien et ce qui ne marchait pas bien cesse complètement de marcher. Or, le réel est un bon maître, en marquant une limite, il donne prise pour inventer du nouveau. Face à la contraction de leur marché, les entreprises ont toutes sortes de possibilités, mais ces possibilités peuvent toutes être classées sur un axe qui va de: “travailler plus” à “travailler mieux”. Or, très souvent, l’option qui va consister à travailler plus semble être privilégiée: nous ferons plus d’heures, nous prendrons moins de vacances, nous ferons des journées plus denses, nous exécuterons davantage.
