The next-big-thing called...
.... to say IBM no longer exists.

"The fact is that innovation was a little different in the 20th century. It's not easy (now) to come up with greater and different things,"

Still on my wishlist:
I want the speakers with a microphone that auto adjusts to the position in the room it's placed:

Apple Hifi is good, but....

I also want zooming view results in search engine.

Ask is now part way there now (with a mouse over preview), but...

Has anyone tried MSG as an Atkins diet modifier yet?:

There's absolutely no innovation possible in solar stills, honest, and I'm not just saying that because I've invested in a new design:

I'd like search by example, Riya is part way there by using Face Recognition algos, but a more generic algo *is* possible.

Not exactly inventive, but can I have image ads please?

"When it comes to innovation, there is a need to think collaboratively and in a multifaceted manner, as this determines who wins and who loses, he said."

Nah, that's a synergy meeting you're talking about.
