It's Not About The Tools? | Meet iPad

Standing Ovation, Mr. Jobs. Not for bringing out another new gadget but for giving us the desire to promote it. Nice work.

Will iPad change the way we use computers? Who knows.

Will we get to a point when we're all walking around with handheld computers rather than being teathered to a desk? Absolutely

Will more business owners finally discover that creativity and collaboration is not linked to rooms and cubicles and work spaces? They will if they want to succeed.

If it's not about the tools, then why are we losing our minds giving Apple all this free publicity?

Interruption | Integration | Improvement

"Your mind has a lot to talk about and it knows you can't pretend you're not at home."
Linda Solegato

In 1957, a woman is seen leaving her house, driving to work and though shocking did not speak on a phone during her entire trip.


Some 231 years earlier, witnesses claim a tall dark haired man traveled from his place of residence to the grocery store where he worked and got there without the use of motorized transportation.

"What great thing would you attempt
if you knew you could not fail?"

Robert H. Schuller

Less than 20 years ago, people all over the world were quickly discovering the ability to send electronic messages to each other over great distances on their computer.

And just this week, there were more stories written about the Apple iPad than the food shortage in Africa.

"Great minds have purpose, others have wishes."
Washington Irving

According to rumor, there was a time when the U.S. Patent Office was going to close. The claim at the time was all inventions needed were already invented. That claim seems rather preposterous now.

Every invention that has ever seen the light of day was something we had to integrate into our lives.

Got an idea?

Will it be an interruption, an integration or an improvement?
