Hoot * * *
I would have given HOOT two stars but the family really enjoyed this silly movie about 3 young teens who commit various felonies to prevent the development of land harboring burrowing owls by evil pancake house developers.
Head on – apply directly to your gullibility and wax your forehead.
Another homeopathic remedy rears it’s silly head with the product I’ve seen advertised so much on TV without any description of what it’s supposed to do. Apparently that’s because it does .. nothing.
Wikipedia:
HeadOn is a homeopathic topical headache relief product produced by Miralus Healthcare.[1] Although intended uses are not listed on the website or in the commercial spot, the purported purpose of the product is to assuage head pains after being applied directly to the forehead.[1] Chemical analysis has shown that the product consists of almost entirely wax.

Yahoo! too much 2.0 can be a … confusing…. thing.
Awhile back I failed to make my point about Yahoo doing “too good” a job at 2.0 for their own good, but now I see they are back at it again. Yahoo Photos looks like some really good stuff, and if I remember correctly they have a huge library of pix and a user base that is something like 10x greater than Flickr. But I’m already confused. Yahoo owns Flickr, which is a great application. Are they expecting Flickr users – and more importantly developers of picture applications – to switch to Yahoo Photos? Why? Are they rebranding here? Sure I could spend a little time trying to answer these questions but this is not high on the list. I know Flickr and love it and I’ll use it until further notice.
My earlier point was that offering people too many choices, or unclear choices, gets in the way of people *accessing* those quality innovations. One of Google’s virtues has been to offer simple, targeted solutions. MSNs vice has been to offer cumbersome, bloated and confusing applications which change names every 6 months.
Yahoo, please follow the Google “instructions for use should be obvious and intuitive” plan.
Cornell Teamwork Study – Teams can *stifle* innovation.
A study over at Cornell suggests that companies may be placing too much emphasis on “Teams”, and stifling the creativity that the researchers found was associated with individual efforts.
