The law of attraction, Sonia Ricotti in action

March 12, 2009 - 2:47 am

Today I found this inspirational video, Sonia Ricotti is the author of the bestseller The Law of Attraction Plain and Simple. He is also president of Lead Out Loud. It is interesting to analyze their thinking and always opt for options positivist and optimistic, this is based on all these streams of thought that are in fashion lately, the most obvious example is the success of Libo "The Secret" which is also based on these theories thought. I hope you like this video is a bit of marketing but small ideas that we see are quite inspiring.

The new emergency instructions Ryanair

March 11, 2009 - 11:10 pm

Today, a little joke, I had reached a "fake", a touch of what could be the instructions in case of emergency airline Ryanair. This is because this business of "low cost" becomes ever more things ... and can be charged for the service as noted.

My personal experience with this company is not very good, for instance, last week I went to Dublin with them, and there was much turbulence to go and I jumped from my seat, the pilot did not properly pass the turbulence, all passengers rioja went quite badly. Do you have a bad experience?

Here I leave with you the odd graph:

Presentation of Wikiguias, a wiki with city guides

March 11, 2009 - 12:13 am

These days I have received email with some projects being developed on the Internet, one is Wikiguias, have asked me if they could assist in publicizing the project.

Thus Wikiguias.org introduces you want to be the wiki reference guides to cities, I think a good project especially if you receive all the support of passengers and are written by wikiguias own travel and visitors from the cities / countries. LonelyPlanet type. What I do not see so clear is the business model of this wiki, as Wikipedia has already had several problems in that sense, we already see. This project is created by Eudald Camprubí, a student of Tourism with others.

It seems significant that the students of Tourism and also bet on the internet and want to create projects. Encouragement to the project is important to have people from all sectors who want to project.

Map of the World Innovation Clusters

March 5, 2009 - 11:12 am

Today we present this very interesting map made by the McKinsey consulting firm, it can be observed clusters innnovación Mundia l.

First of course we can find Silicon Valley, Tokyo remains a gift from the city and Boston, all the top positions are monopolized by cities or parts of the United States. Lowest position in Israel where we can find and increasingly there are new startups and bet on innovation.

At stresses Stuttgart and Munich as well as more than London and Stockholm. This graph should make us think and rethink the situation and there is no city of Barcelona Spain does not appear. With the crisis that we have this chart is very interesting as an indication that I believe the most important cities or areas where it will be retrieved quickly, as there is no Spanish or Catalan, it will be for recovery.

In conclusion you have to bet on innovation rather than aid to create public works for the common problem I have is structural and will not solve the long term.
