Wel...I even doubt if disruptors are innovators too. Well, may be most but not all. Some disruptors may get things right, that's all about them. Innovation is social or technical or just any sort of 'visible' advance. What kind of advance has Buzzfeed offered, if we were not to be trapped in delicious sounding "engineered virality"? Virality has been engineered by Psy. That is the epitome of "virality" and that is what should be benchmark of engineering virality. Psy innovated in dance steps. and there are many websites that do the stuff that Buzzfeed do. For example, siliconindia. To give crazy lists is no innovation. It is just smart business trick. I find "Onion" as much better content based website and the one which actually creates "buzz", raises eyebrows, invites attention. <br /><br />Or, may be, the above comment of mine is driven by my prejudice against 99% of website developers, especially those among them who call themselves "innovators" or "entrepreneurs" and yet all they have to offer is a silly e-commerce website or some top 10, top 100 content based stuff. After all top 10, top 100 of anything is just an opinion.Rahulnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5574479.post-7676775736539002412013-04-09T11:43:48.956+01:002013-04-09T11:43:48.956+01:00The more 'disruptive' a technology is, the...The more 'disruptive' a technology is, the broader the claims you can go for in a patent application. When working with academic clients I find it useful to get a feel for how disruptive (groundbreaking) the invention is to assist with providing advice on how ambitious they should be. The more disruptive it is, the less prior art should be found, and hopefully the more likelihood of commercial backing.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
