It's the Idea, Silly

Just more proof that it's the idea that's becoming more important than the noise like relationships and inertia. It's an incredible time for entrepreneurs and creatives. I came across 99designs.com the other day which I thought was pretty cool. I'm also a big fan of iStockphoto.com (cheap professional stock photography that can be submitted by anyone). While some people call this crowdsourcing, it's really just about creating new more efficient markets for amateurs - markets that happen to have been enabled by the web.
