My brother called from the west coast to tell me that Starbucks was pushing its new Via coffee pretty hard in a store near his Silicon Valley office. His first assumption was that Starbucks was trying to keep customers that were cutting down on in-store coffee purchases. I believe he was part right. Starbucks has [...]]]></description>

However, I am finding that many people I talk to don&#8217;t understand it well and few have incorporated it into their corporate culture or product development lexicon. Given the state of the economy and the rapidly changing business landscape, [...]]]></description>

Innovation. It&#8217;s everywhere. But innovation doesn&#8217;t sell on the evening news when unemployment is at a 25 year high and yet another institution is receiving billions for trying to stay status quo.

At least, I don&#8217;t think they knew. And if they did, they might have made a very simple feature change for the iPhone and iPod touch; a way to disable the &#8216;home&#8217; button while still running an application. Why is this important? Ask any parent. My wife and I have had iPhones for two years [...]]]></description>
