Splish Splash. Curiosity. part 1

Hi! (insert big smile and little wave)
Welcome to Puddle jumping and splashing around in the bits and pieces of the world that catch my attention.
I thought I'd start this blog with a bit about why I decided to create Puddle Jumping, it seemed only natural. Why is that pray tell is that? Curiosity, and the little kid inside (yes the same one that likes to jump in puddles) who asks "but why?" Puddle Jumping is the long stick that you use to prod the unknown until you can figure out what exactly it is you're looking at and why it has come across your path.

Curiosity is amazing. Plain and simple it is the fodder for innovation (I guess that makes us all livestock) We've all probably seen this before:

Now aside from the fact that you are probably thinking oh god, she's breaking out the marketing 101 hand book, run for the hills did you ever stop to think that this is also directly correlated to how curious a person is?

Innovators: Live and breathe curiosity. How on earth do you think that they know about everything before you and I. Not only that, they are the ones that are figuring out how everything works, tearing it apart and putting it back together, better. They are pretty much bad ass all around, like my friend David who works for Zynga (the Farmville people) I'm pretty sure he may take over the world one day. 

Early adopters: (this is where I see myself) and a lot of people in planning. Eager beavers, handing out the Google + invites before people even knew what it was or why they wanted an invite. (regardless of the fact that the honey moon phase is now over)

You see my point?
Being curious is what fuels those of us who innovate and make the world a better place!

Part 2 coming soon!
