Shankar,

I dont understand the concept of ‘innovating’ when
(a) we don’t use the product we build
(b) we know very little of the competition
(c) there is a huge gap between the customer and the development teams

>>Ideas are important for product companies than quality of product

I don’t agree. Lots of times, you will realize the guy who does things first turns a loser simply because the guy who did next could do it better, faster, cheaper.

Innovation and ideas are important when there is a tendency to treat a good product/ service as cash cow and keep milking it forever.
On the other extreme we can’t be ‘ideating’ when we are far removed from our actual product, actual customer and actual competition.

Prabhu,

If you are running a ‘arisi mandi’ it doesn’t means you have to eat rice 3 times a day. I feel some product companies are surviving because of innovative ideas. Ideas are important for product companies than quality of product. Google is also not cent percent perfect, still google is fetching some bulls**ts for some searches.

Not least, We have to follow ‘Nobody is Perfect’ Principle…

Friends

Thanks for your support and wishes.

This was an experiment which kinda worked. But it took lot of time and prevented me from experimenting in other things. Experimenting is more important than a moderately successful experiment

I will come back when I feel the urge to write. But for now I need a break.

Thanks for tolerating me all along!

Dear PK, we both are going to definitely miss your thought provoking writings on your blog. I have to admit that you do have those “what the hell he was thinking moments”. But they do make your blog all the more interesting and un-predictable. We both sincerely hope that this will just be a brief break and you will return back.
