I really enjoy ready this book of Gunther Dueck. One of the essential messages in the book is that the key for an most efficient economy, is to focus on people as individuals and create happiness for each of them. A human can work most efficiently when he is happy. Therefore creating this environment will result in a most efficient labor. It will take the power of computers to calculate happiness for every one. But Gunther agues, that this will be the future.

A few posts ago I talked about how user experience will change. This will be one of the most significant changes on the web in the next few years and I truly believe this. I’ve seen some smaller experiments on the web and at conventions in this direction (I especially like the work of marcos weskamp). I’m coming across this topic more and more every day. Just recently I found the yahoo innovation group (now called next) and could see some of their amazing and beautiful work. Today I discovered the labs at digg and it was really happy to see confirmation in what I think will be seen more often in the near future.
