The seat of innovation is in the mind, not the machine

Article Abstract:

Several industries sell their knowledge of the product market rather than relying only on production or services for revenue. AMR Corp, parent of American Airlines Inc, sells access to its computerized reservation system, which helps fill less desirable empty seats at lower prices. Other industries that sell knowledge include seismic prospector Schlumberger, which gives advice to petroleum companies on the location of reserves.
