Three Types of independent consultants

• Generalists: Consultants with expertise and common sense who help a client define its problem so that the client can solve it.
• Specialists: Consultants with particular know-how who can solve a specific problem or deliver a specific service a client needs.
• Experts:
  (1) Consultants with extensive education and highly specialized expertise who amortize the cost of their education in their billing rates.
  (2) Specialists whom a client hires and calls experts so their opinions will carry weight.

• Full Project/Product list
• Innovations that have caught my eye:
  • Toggler's SNAPTOGGLE - Four inventions in one, each step dependent on the step before. The person (or team) who came up with this alternative to the old-fashioned toggle bolt deserves a MacArthur genius award - for a while, I carried one around to show people, I was so impressed.
  • USB Mug Warmer - When USB first came out, all the ports were in the back with the others. Then someone came up with the smart idea of putting some ports in the front, and making power available. I love my JumpDrive as much as the next person, but get a load of this Hong Kong invention!
  • Annoyed - Not sure if this hasn't been photoshopped. I've always said that traffic conditions should be described as "typical."
  • Classic - Back in 2001, Bruno Bozzetto created this ShockWave Flash animation, "Yes & No/A Dysfunctional Road Movie," which shows how strictly obeying road rules might not always end up in the results intended. The music might attract your co-workers, but, remember, it really is educational! Combines micro-traffic models with a sense of humor.
