Create, invent, recreate...
I’ve always thought the great ideas just keep circling through the system until they work. I was reading Fred Wilson’s post on Mahalo today (yeah, I’m that far behind), and he was talking about how human-powered search has been tried many times before, but it hasn’t worked yet.
I think it’s a great idea, and it will work sooner or later. I don’t know if this is the iteration that will end up breaking through or not, but either way I think it’s exciting.
I’ve always wanted to be part of creating something cool. I’d even settle for creating something uncool but useful. I’m glad I’m getting a chance to work on the Blog Business Summit, because I’m getting a great opportunity to enjoy my work and help people blog at the same time.
It’s also a cool job because I get to watch people come up with and develop cool ideas.
