The Smart List 2006
Business 2.0 has a smart list to counter balance the 101 dumbest. So here are the picks:
- Smart Technology: RSS
- Smart turnaround: Motorola
- Smart Entrepreneur: Jeremy Allaire
- Smartest exit strategy: Skype.
Of course, we didn’t think any innovation this year was worthy of a mention, since everything we saw was evolutionary.

The list makes sense. Moto really did have a heck of a turnaround. The rest of their products for this year look pretty good (excluding the ROKR).
RSS makes sense. Definitely not revolutionary, but is allowing all sorts of new businesses. At the very least its been extremely useful.
Very smart exit by Skype. Seeling out for alot of money is always a good move.
