Next Little Thing 2010 - Electricity without wires (1) - Small Business
Welcome to the unwired world - internet connectivity, voice, and now, energy. Never stop questioning what's possible.
"Marin Soljačić couldn't sleep. The problem was his wife's Nokia cell phone. The tyrannical device beeped on the bedside table when it needed to be plugged in. It could not be disabled.
Instead of taking a hammer to the phone, Soljačić marveled at the fact that this device, and billions of others like it, was sitting a few feet away from all the electricity it could ever need. Why couldn't it receive power wirelessly, just as laptops get Wi-Fi? "
Southbeach Notation - Improve Everything Always
Just stumbled onto this - a free visualization tool that uses a variation of TRIZ modeling standards. Windows only.
"A universal visual language. Use Southbeach to model any complex situation in fields as far flung as finance, engineering, management, the law, global issues, education, marketing, the service economy, health care, information technology, strategy or politics. Add perspectives to your models. What is useful? What is harmful? From which viewpoint?"
Backcasting / nForm / Trading Cards
Just stumbled onto this - a series of "trading cards" relating to usability, IA, etc..
One in particular caught my eye, it describes "Baskcasting" where teams work from an ideal future state, and work backwards to the current state.

Dan Keldsen: Innovation Grows on TRIZ
An interview with Dr. Ellen Domb of the PQR Group (www.trizpqrgroup.com) and also Editor of the TRIZ Journal (www.triz-journal.com) - in this session, we discuss some more of the background theory of TRIZ and it's classical origins, but also it's more mod
The interview that never was, but which took place at the same time | Официальный Фонд Г.С. Альтшуллера (автора ТРИЗ-РТВ-ТРТЛ) | www.altshuller.ru
Stumbled onto a transcription/interview with the father of TRIZ. Interesting reading.
Systematic Innovation - FAQs
A nice collection of FAQs around TRIZ, it's uses, how it compares to other techniques, etc..
40 Inventive (Business) Principles With Examples
Updated version of the last bookmark, further business examples (although still laregly engineering focused)
40 Inventive Principles
The 40 classical TRIZ principles, with examples - from an engineering standpoint
Innovation Planner - TRIZ Card Deck
Another TRIZ-based card deck, mentioned by Howard Smith of CSC in his P-TRIZ keynote. Based on "modern TRIZ" rather than "classic TRIZ"
CREAX - Function Database
Interesting free web-based database (presumably their is a more extensive and integrated version in CREAX's paid solutions?) to explore the various functions that may need to be accomplished, and like TRIZ thinking in general, to generate many more ideas
Thoughtivity for Kids
Applies TRIZ and other problem solving, or creativity techniques to teaching kids (put in practice for 15 years in Russia - birthplace of TRIZ)
