Interesting interview with John Sculley, Apple's former CEO about start-ups & Google's moonshot philosophy:

"The thing that I remember most about Steve Jobs was how incredibly passionate he was about what he did," says Sculley, whose new book Moonshot! (Rosetta Books, 216 pages) offers advice to tech start-ups. "He was willing to sacrifice so many things in his life in order to, as he would say, put a dent in the universe."

A moonshot refers to Google's philosophy of creating high-risk, high-reward projects that "make something 10 times better," according to Astro Teller, captain of moonshots at Google.

It seems clearer day by day that Google and Apple are the ones AM referred to as the early adopters and "those who believe in innovation" who will be eating the lunches of others soon.

And what is being marketed as 10x better, to be a Google moonshot? Step right up...
