Following up on my post yesterday on the processing of internal ideas, like organic food, which has has as little processing as possible, organic ideas, coming directly from the inventors, with as little added flavoring as possible, usually make the best ideas. Now it is possible that the initial idea was missing a business [...]
This is cool. I wonder if it can be used not just for replacement parts but for extra parts? Imagine a fashion where people can grow additional skin and body parts in various forms as a fashion statement.

We presented some companies and case studies where the companies leveraged the crowd, usually their customers, in order to come up with new product ideas. For example, Quirky lets you design a [...]
