I didn't think that this year's Strategy conference was going to have a blog—but I was thrilled to see that John Maeda of the MIT media lab has stepped up to create one:
"Blogs are odd resources that sprout up around conferences. They usually take a back seat to the main activities, but they can sometimes provide a good place for more conversation.
In order to get this blog going, we have surveyed the illustrious list of speakers -- and a variety of other favorite creative leaders -- on a simple question: "What role does creativity play in design strategy?"
We present our findings here in this space, and hope that we might all think together about these 3 words: creativity, design, strategy.
— John Maeda + Becky Bermont (MIT Media Lab)"
Let the conversation begin. Oh, and speaking of conversation—I recently found out that Helen Walters from BusinessWeek will be there. Helen did the editing for my BW article titled "It's The Conversation Economy Stupid". Looking forward to meeting Helen and hopefully connecting with some L+E readers as well (I know you're out there...). :-)
Also, see IIT's Institute of Design's blog called D log—it's chock full of visuals.
