New York Times: Bell Labs: True Innovation

http://j.mp/wTEJeE  (New York Times)

   "Why study Bell Labs? It offers a number of lessons about how our
    country's technology companies - and our country's longstanding
    innovative edge - actually came about. Yet Bell Labs also presents a
    more encompassing and ambitious approach to innovation than what
    prevails today. Its staff worked on the incremental improvements
    necessary for a complex national communications network while
    simultaneously thinking far ahead, toward the most revolutionary
    inventions imaginable."

Apropos, this "music video" -- "Bell Labs Innovations" -- from 2000.
Some *very* familiar faces in there!
