His research examines why certain ideas - ranging from urban legends to folk medical cures, from Chicken Soup for the Soul stories to business strategy myths - survive and prosper in the social marketplace of ideas. These "naturally sticky" ideas spread without external help in the form of marketing dollars, PR assistance, or the attention of leaders.</p> <p>A few years back Chip designed a course, now a popular elective at Stanford, that asked whether it would be possible to use the principles of naturally sticky ideas to design messages that would be more effective. That course, "How to Make Ideas Stick," has now been taught to hundreds of students including managers, teachers, doctors, journalists, venture capitalists, product designers, and film producers.</p> </div> <a href="/blog/5677-chip-heath-making-ideas-stick">Watch the video</a> http://bravenewfilms.org/blog/4871--energy-wasting-lightbulbs-destroyed 2008-06-09T09:31:42Z Greenpeace <object width="375" height="308"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/DjZMXMap2M8&border=0&rel=0"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/DjZMXMap2M8&border=0&rel=0" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="375" height="308"></embed></object> <a href="/blog/4871--energy-wasting-lightbulbs-destroyed"><img src="http://bravenewfilms.org/pictures/medium/4130" width="140" height="105" border="0" align="left" style="border: solid 1px black;" /></a> <div class="post_content"> <p>http://greenpeace.org/brightidea <br />These are obsolete, but widely available, energy wasting incandescent lightbulbs. This type of bulb wastes 95 percent of its energy generating heat instead of light. This wasted energy mostly comes from burning fossil fuels like coal - causing climate change by adding carbon dioxide to our atmosphere.</p> <p>We crushed these bulbs in Berlin while EU and G8 ministers were meeting there for the, "Energy Efficiency: Shaping Tomorrow's World" conference to send them a message. Greenpeace is calling for national bans on energy wasting lightbulbs, and enforcement of an EU-wide mandatory efficiency standard on domestic lighting by 2010.</p> </div> <a href="/blog/4871--energy-wasting-lightbulbs-destroyed">Watch the video</a> http://bravenewfilms.org/blog/4326-what-if-our-most-powerful-weapons-were-ideas-beta 2008-06-08T03:30:15Z seeprogress <object width="375" height="308"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/CH0-uSgWHL8&border=0&rel=0"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/CH0-uSgWHL8&border=0&rel=0" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="375" height="308"></embed></object> <a href="/blog/4326-what-if-our-most-powerful-weapons-were-ideas-beta"><img src="http://bravenewfilms.org/pictures/medium/3581" width="140" height="105" border="0" align="left" style="border: solid 1px black;" /></a> <div class="post_content"> <p>www.americanprogress.org</p> </div> <a href="/blog/4326-what-if-our-most-powerful-weapons-were-ideas-beta">Watch the video</a> http://bravenewfilms.org/blog/4325-add-to-the-collective-genius-www-americanprogress-org-beta 2008-06-08T03:30:13Z seeprogress <object width="375" height="308"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/D37Xg8L-AR4&border=0&rel=0"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/D37Xg8L-AR4&border=0&rel=0" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="375" height="308"></embed></object> <a href="/blog/4325-add-to-the-collective-genius-www-americanprogress-org-beta"><img src="http://bravenewfilms.org/pictures/medium/3580" width="140" height="105" border="0" align="left" style="border: solid 1px black;" /></a> <div class="post_content"> <p>The Center for American Progress is a non-partisan think tank dedicated to improving the lives of all Americans. <br />www.AMERICANPROGRESS.org</p> </div> <a href="/blog/4325-add-to-the-collective-genius-www-americanprogress-org-beta">Watch the video</a>
