== Definition ==

{{quotation|A disruptive technology or disruptive innovation is an innovation that improves a product or service in ways that the market does not expect, typically by being lower priced or designed for a different set of consumers.}} ([http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Disruptive_technology Wikipedia], retrieved 16:04, 24 June 2009 (UTC)).

{{quotation|Disruptive technologies have features that a few fringe (and generally new) customers value. Products based on disruptive technologies are typically cheaper to produce, simpler, smaller, better performing, and, frequently, more convenient to use.}} ([http://www.zena.net/htdocs/FAQ/DisTech.shtml What do you mean by the term disruptive technology?], retrieved 16:04, 24 June 2009 (UTC).

{{quotation|Disruptive Technologies enable us to think in dimensions we didn’t think of, and in that lies their utility and power. These help us expand our knowledge base as a society and as individuals and solve problems we didn’t quite know as problems. The trouble is, it’s difficult to segregate a disruptive technology from chaos that surrounds research, from all the hyperbole that accompanies every new product or technology launch announcement. There is no mantra that can enable you to distinguish between a disruptive technology that can alter the landscape and marketing fluff most organizations indulge in. The only true test is time, the only testbed the entire mass of users on the Internet.}}

== Examples of disruptive technologies ==

* Desktop printers (replace print shops to some extent)
* [[Wiki]]s like Wikipedia (collective expertise instead of expensive compiled expert knowledge)
* [[Wiki book]]s and similar (cheap self-publishing)
* [[Fab lab]]s (replace manufacturers to some extent)
