If I were the president of a multimedia start-up, how might I go about galumphing?</span></font></font></p>
<p><font face="verdana,arial,helvetica,sans-serif" size="2" color="#000000"><span class="answer">I'd give you a video camera and say, Go make a video that represents what is on your computer screen right now, or Make a video of a person who has never seen a PC before, or Shut down all the PCs in your company for the day and have your people work with pencil and paper. Galumphing is a way to come up with novel combinations of technology or ideas that may give you the capability to craft a new multimedia application in the future.</span></font></p>
