Welcome!  

Hi everyone and welcome to the first edition of The Espresso, the worlds first newspaper for creative thinkers.  We promise to scour the world to find what's news in thinking - tips, tools and stimulants that will help you look at your world differently.  This newspaper is not for everyone.  Its for those people who like to push the boundries, hate status quo, like to challenge the norm and get restless if they're not able to challenge the normal paradigms of traditional thinking.  

Why is it necessary?  The black and white picture above is a true picture from "Innovation Australia" - the government body that oversees innovation in our country.  Have a good look at this photo and tell me that you believe these people have the ability to push innovation through for business and our community, and be totally in touch with what's changing around the thinking for brand, people, education, social media and culture.This is why we have a need for a newspaper like this.  

We encourage your contributions.  We encourage you to challenge our thinking and we offer you the opportunity to contribute your own stories, tips and insights to help the rest of the world think differently.  Feel free to take any piece of information and share it, and if there is someone you know who likes to challenge thinking and you think could benefit from this newspaper, then please feel free to forward it on to them.  They're only one click away from having The Espresso delivered to them every Wednesday for free.

Five Fingers

Great marketers are thinking differently about brand.  Companies such as Vibram are winning market share by creating new categories not just new brands.  When you create a new category, you own the category and you play by different rules.  Aren't you intrigued to try a pair of these shoes?

Cross the Road Carefully

If there is ever a guy that can make you see things differently its Edgar Mueller.  Isn't it amazing what can be done with a piece of chalk and some pavement!

What a Classroom!

It has been said that children enter school as question marks and leave as exclamation marks.  I believe that often teachers, the curriculum and the environment can be responsible for stealing curiosity from children.  Thankfully, some schools are creating learning environments that are stimulating and creative and are designed to enhance a child's curiosity.   Wouldn't it be great to learn in an environment like this.
