Tipping Point 1

This book is actually better than I thought. It is very interesting to me because I have started my own business. I also loves staying on top of technology and I try to keep up to date on emerging technologies. I agree with the author that at some point a product, idea, or social movement, can rapidly go from something small to something big. A perfect example of this is computers. In the beginning computers were expensive, complicated, and were not very powerful. Today computers are cheaper, faster, smaller, have more features, and are easier to use. That in conjunction with the rapid growth of the web has caused many consumers around the globe to purchase computers. The same thing has happened with many other products including, cell phones, digital cameras, iPods, and it will continue to happy with new products. The trick that everyone wants to know is how can they create a positive tipping point to start a new trend that will benefit them.
