The math of the Internet Business Tue, Sep 5. 2006
Currently many business being created on the Internet today are simple combinations of existing ideas.
This is known as “Systematic Inventive Thinking (SIT)".
Paul Eisenberg has a post with some classic examples
- Subtraction: Removal of components (Simpler content management system tuned for a specific niche.)
Multiplication: Add modified copies of existing components (More hosting space)
Division: Separate product into individual components (Google maps api allows for the creation of sites which only need parts of the whole)
Unification: Extend the use of an existing component so that it provides additional value (Otherwise known as Mashups - Google maps and a crime database to display crimes on a map)
Dependence: Change the relationship between the product and its environment (Load balanced web sites, backup and fail over systems)
