  Inside: This Week in Innovation
In this week's Innovation & Design newsletter, we look at a wide range of innovations, from product design to vast new architecture. Writer Matt Vella spoke with the CEO of high-end software maker Autodesk about the future of rapid prototyping and computer-aided design. We also feature profiles of Johnson & Johnson's chief design officer, Chris Hacker, as well as the much smaller Sputnik, a student-run design firm based in San Francisco. Also, in this week's podcast, we discuss the social media groundswell with the co-author of a new Forrester Research book on which companies are making the most of new social media technologies.
