Lions, Tigers, Revolutionaries, oh my!

In just a few short years, a multitude of new ideas have hit the market, which have forced us to re-evaluate how we engage our world.  From Wikipedia, to MySpace, to Current TV these ideas have created a domino effect to new ways of thinking, seeing and experiencing education, entertainment, and news.

The creators of these breakthrough concepts have sparked new ideas by seeing an opportunity to challenge the status quo (or maybe just exploiting untapped opportunities).  More market ideas are bubbling just beneath the surface that are looking to continue this trend.  No market is untouched as Sellaband looks to throw in a very interesting twist in the way bands make, market, and sell music and possibly transform the relationship between artists and fans.  A Swarm of Angels is looking to remix the creative film making process and shake up the world of cinema.  
As these are just two ideas on the verge, a number of other individuals are delving into unchartered waters looking to disrupt the way business as usual is done.  Neurologist, Karim Nader, is developing medication to alter the way your mind recollects its memories . Thomas Linzey, Executive Director for the Community Environmental Legal Defense Fund,  is looking to give ecosystems legal rights of their own. Forbes further explores these two and the minds of 8 other revolutionaries and their groundbreaking work.  Positioning themselves to see opportunities where others don’t, these individuals are standing on the bleeding edge, working to turn conventional wisdom on its head. 

So if you are not ready to lead the charge of change or even join the ranks. . . then you might want to move out of the way (because you might just get ran over)!  The chants for more transformational ideas have only just begun! Look out establishment!
   
Viva La Revolution!
