Cutting edge technology is cool. But it really makes an impact in the world when it’s practically applied. I’ll discuss questions to ask yourself to make your technology and discoveries more practical - and ultimately more adoptable and successful. I’ll draw on my experience as a product manager in Silicon Valley for VRML in 1996 and AJAX in 2000 and share what I learned. I might have some examples of ways to make current technology (and science breakthroughs) more practical.
