As a part of the Texas Instruments OMAP community engagement & enablement team - it's one of our team's to enable developer community around OMAP & our development platforms.

The Power of 'Open' Innovation

This weekend I had a chance to try out a post on Lifehacker on how to replace the Ubuntu 10.04 menu with a more usable & elegant 'Linux Mint' menu. It hardly took 5 minutes and the result look like this:

Linux Mint on Ubuntu 10.04

I can't imagine even trying to change a Windows start menu to something different. This just shows the innovation power of 'open-source' and giving real freedom to the users. With the right balance of openness we can give users the power to innovate while still enabling a business to thrive and develop differentiating intellectual property.

What's your take on open innovation?
