Last year, my website was a bit like an online brochure, similar to websites of many other speakers, authors, and consultants. Although it was packed with content, and I received many compliments, I wasn’t satisfied. I wanted it to be an up-to-date resource that could be referenced instantly and repeatedly. This year, I relaunched my website as a powerful innovation and research tool. Here's how it turned out:
Aggregation, Curation, and Best Of
Peter Max, the iconic artist, once described his habit of visiting cinema multiplexes, buying tickets for every movie, and then popping in and out of each theater in order to catch the diverse sights and sounds.
Similarly, the latest content from leading-edge voices is aggregated here in the main information stream. There is always something new to see and explore with each visit.
Each day I comb the web and tweet selected links on Twitter @kencooperusa. Then, via analytics, I curate those stories that were the most widely read by my followers into my weekly "Best Of" Links, sent out by email once per week. Get it here. Subscribe with confidence. We protect your privacy.
Knowledge-based Innovation
Knowledge is foundational to innovation. Browse the feeds. Listen and learn from many voices on innovation, open innovation, collaboration, demographics, technology, trends, and the future.
Next, test drive the powerful SEARCH feature. It displays results across all of the feeds, making it a great research dashboard. You can even save searches.
Kudos
I hope that you will find this website to be a useful tool that you use frequently, and that you discover knowledge that will help you stay current, improve your present situation, and help you create a better future.
Kudos to the awesome team at Development Seed for making such a website possible!
