Editor´s letter

In this special ideas issue we look at the future of innovation. It is, as I write, just over a week since Apple co-founder Steve Jobs died, and the black and white image of him in his trademark black turtleneck jumper stroking his grey beard is still the Apple homepage. It´s firmly on its way to becoming as familiar a portrait as Shepherd Fairey??s posterised image of Barack Obama. All it needs is a slogan underneath, like ´Think Different´, the old catachphrase for Apple computers.
