No, this isn’t the start of a new reality show. I just left an all day brainstorming session talking about the next big idea. Brainstorms can bring up some pretty radical, unrealistic, off the wall ideas. These ideas bring some much needed humor and yet usually contain the seed of a great idea.

Afterwards a colleague of mine and I were discussing how all products are owned by only a handful of companies compared to the possibly hundreds of companies that started out making the same product. As the companies die out so does the freshness that the competition brings.

This brought up the next question, what is the next big product to excite consumers. Computers are old, cell phones are whatever, mp3 players have dwindled, and even new music has kind of stalled. Can anyone predict or offer some ideas as to what the next big thing will be? It doesn’t have to be automotive, just something that effects our everyday lives.
