A Tech Way Around ?Creative Block?

Editor's note: Alex Cornell is co-founder and creative director at Firespotter Labs, makers of �berConference, NoshList, Nosh, and Jotly. Firespotter is backed by Andressen Horowitz and Google Ventures. Follow him on his website and on Twitter.

What's often baked into their scheduling assumption is that the creatives will deliver results at a predictable and regular rate. They expect that 10 hours of creative work will produce 10 hours worth of pretty pictures; as predictable as a banker crunching numbers.

[...] most of the streets carrying names of people in Houston tend to be of an older vintage named after benefactors, civic leaders, old guard Lone Star legends and city-founder types, which can make them a good instigator for research if not a tourist photo destination. According to public affairs manager Suzy Hartgrove, the city's Planning and Development Department used to have a petition process for what they called "vanity street names," but that service has been discontinued. Developers are responsible for new street names, but new housing seems an odd place to honor, say, a music legend.

Kirkpatrick & Erlanger, NYT
CAIRO — On the eve of his first trip to the United States as Egypt’s new Islamist president, Mohamed Morsi said the United States needed to fundamentally change its approach to the Arab world, showing greater respect for its values and helping build a Palestinian state, if it hoped to overcome decades of pent-up anger. A former leader of the Muslim Brotherhood and Egypt’s first democratically elected president, Mr. Morsi sought in a 90-minute interview with The New York Times to introduce himself to the American public and to revise the terms of relations between...
