I love applying nice easy to understand graphs and quantitive tools to the complex world of quality. Any views on where a circumnavigation of the globe by bicycle fits on the cool curve? Nice idea.

I guess it is self evident that you will be more successful in what ever you do if you produce stuff that other people like or want. So on one level the Cool Curve simply shows graphically what we already know. The bit that got me excited was the power to model schematically the relationship dynamics of two or more people/groups (yeah sorry it that sound like new shite! - it does work for me though). The bit that is still lumpy is the geology of ideas bit at the end. It is clear that any group, business, institution or hobby tribe has its own cool curve and that zoomed out it is reminiscent of a landscape. It is also true that water is often used as an analogy for conversation. Whether ideas as grains of sand stands up is yet to be seen! Cheers Toby Hey Damien – thanks for the write-up.

Shit!! Hold on a minute! Toby Moores , galvanizes that point perfectly well. Lest I think he did… Cool curve dynamics might make for more awareness in business logic but when applied to personal development, a little fixed judgment together with a modest fraction of thinking outside of our own comfort zone would prove more beneficial.
