Apple, Top Innovator

posted in news, by Codrut Nistor

The fact that we all know Apple to be one of the top innovators in the industry is not surprising, but I surely find it amazing that they got on top of BusinessWeek's annual list of the most innovative companies for the fifth time in a row!

This year, Google and Toyota remained in the same places as in 2008 - second and third, followed by Microsoft, who climbed one to fourth spot, although I wonder why did they got so high. At last, we have Nintendo, who managed to grab the last position in the top five.

One of those who were a part of the survey that ended up with the list I just mentioned said "Their products are improvements on previous technology. Their execution is flawless, but they are not necessarily innovative," and I am sure he was being polite. Just look at the iPod Shuffle and you'll understand what I mean...

...and if you don't, I am glad for you - after all, sometimes it's better to be happy with what you have, instead of looking for something better.
