Rob van Kranenburg's written a relatively lengthy -- but interesting -- essay entitled "The Real Rules of Innovation for the 21st Century." Available as a PDF as well as on the Web, van Kranenburg's writing opens with a look at the innovation triangle -- things, ideas, and vision -- before addressing what he considers to be the new rules for innovation.

• Don't look up, there is nothing new you need
• Formulate a vision and let go
• The genre is the gesture and the gesture is always with you

This is the first part of a series, and while the piece may be better suited for printing out and reading more leisurely -- in order to better absorb some of the concepts and ideas -- than immediate application, I look forward to more.
