Definition of "innovative":
Characterized by the creation of new ideas or things
Popularity isn't innovation by its definition. These two issues are orthogonal.
>> "It is like Windows ... but it made a hundred or a thousand times more people to experience computers."
Right, but that's completely irrelevant and not innovation.
- TeMPOraL 8y ago"Innovative" is a great example of an aircraft-carrier-clearance word. The way this word is used in e.g. startup context, popularity can absolutely be innovative - after all, if Lisps were not popular, and now one suddenly is, it's a new thing therefore innovative (send funding rounds this way please). Honestly, I think the word "innovation" needs to be tabooed from the discussion to get meaningful questions and answers.
