Our GigaOM RoadMap conference last week kept me so busy and left me so exhausted that I didn’t get a chance to do much reading. So I decided to skip recommending any links last weekend. Time to make amends! Here are a bunch of fresh links for this weekend’s reading pleasure.
- Today the lean startup methodology is conventional wisdom. Dave Gray, the man behind X-Plane, notes that it all started at Toyota in his post about Push vs. Pull ways of manufacturing.
- How to think and communicate visually? This is a great lesson from David Armano and important because we all need to rise about the noise around us.
- Truly engaging and immersive products or how to keep talent. A great post from the Swedish publishing Bonnier’s R&D blog by Jenny Sunden.
- Why many smart people are not social. Rajesh Shetty explains. I am of the opinion that not everyone needs to be social.
- Is the iPhone replacing the motorcycle as the love object for the modern man? The New York Times weighs in.
- This brief rant on the future of interaction design by Bret Victor is simply awesome.
- And to round off the list, Dave Trott’s Fail Upwards is a lesson for all of us.

Reading four of them. Thanks for posting, Dave. RT @davegray: 7 stories to read this weekend http://t.co/3RHRxo5q
Hi Om, thank you for the kind pointer to my post!
I was fascinated to discover that Taiichi Ohno actually came up with the idea for pull when he was visiting the US, touring US auto manufacturing plants for ideas about how to improve Japanese manufacturing.
His inspiration came not from the US auto plants but from a visit to a Piggly Wiggly store (Piggly Wiggly was the first of the self-serve supermarkets that are now commonplace everywhere).
What inspired him was when he saw customers taking items from the shelves and employees restocking the shelves. He went back to the Toyota plant and had each production line display its “wares” (products that line was capable of making). When someone in the following line picked up an item, they quickly remade that item and replaced it. This turned each line into a shopkeeper and each subsequent line as the previous line’s customer.
Pull manufacturing was born :)
