  Inside: This Week in Innovation
This week, Innovation & Design writer Matt Vella looks at innovations in the realms of politics and video games. First up, he reports on the impressive, grassroots fund-raising efforts of Barack Obama's Presidential campaign, including a Web site that aims to raise $1 million in just 60 seconds on the eve of the Apr. 22 Pennsylvania primary. Vella also talked with the co-founder of Rockstar Games, which awaits the launch of the year's most eagerly anticipated game, Grand Theft Auto IV, and the outcome of a takeover bid for its parent company, Take-Two Interactive. Technology writer Arik Hesseldahl, meanwhile, spoke with Research in Motion founder Mike Lazaridis about how the BlackBerry maker has built a successful R&D culture. Finally, listen in on the Innovation of the Week podcast, in which I chat with renowned graphic designer Stefan Sagmeister about advertising, branding, and more.

JetBlue has succeeded where most companies have failed in building enormous customer loyalty and it is a tragedy when the airline does something so boneheaded that it insults and infuriates its consumers—as it did to me last week on a trip to Portland, Oregon. closequote
