From Scott Berkun, The Myths of Innovation, by way of an old post on The Daily Galaxy . . .
Despite the myths, innovations rarely involve someone working alone, and never in history has an invention been made without reusing ideas from the past. For all of our chronocentric glee, our newest ideas have historic roots: the term network is 500 years old, webs were around before the human race, and the algorithmic DNA is more elegant and powerful than any programming language. Wise innovators–driven by passion more than ego–initiate partnerships, collaborations, and humble studies of the past, raising their odds against the timeless challenges of innovation.
What has been is what will be, and what has been done is what will be done, and there is nothing new under the sun.
