So he actually made it to Guatemala?

Always thought his posts were kinda made up rants, but at least this shows that he was not lying in his last posting about having left Belize.

Also: Is there some new Anti-McAfee gossip filter in place? There are news on the front page with 4 points in 33 minutes, and this one has 4 points in 12 minutes and is on position 76.

Not really sure in how far this is a new insight. Based on Drucker's old mantra Business has only two basic functions - marketing and innovation it is pretty obvious that in production based industries manufacturing and innovation are stronger related.

But it is great to see that influential business academics like him increasingly promote the fact that business success is not (only) about juggling numbers. Or to quote from my favorite paper by Christensen:

And all data are subjective. Each form of data is a higher-level abstraction from a much more complex reality

(2004 Carlile & Christensen - The Cycles of Theory Building in Management Research)

Thank you so much for the effort. This is really something useful. Would love to see more projects on making privacy themes more accessible.
