Thank you, Zoya. We’ll have a nice mix of historical and current stories — something for everyone. Later, we’ll include some more forward-looking perspectives as well.

@Kare, thank you for the kinds words, and taking time to share your perspective. I just visited your website — very cool. You know, I hadn’t seen the Tim Ferriss video before. It reminded me that the Digital Crib series was truly groundbreaking. I agree, it would be helpful (more actionable) to learn some of the iPrize participant how-to stories. How we’re experimenting with new social media tools could lead to some very interesting new storylines. Thanks for the suggestion.

@Deanna, thank you so much for your support and encouragement. Next week we’re going to start the co-author series, and I’m truly honored to be in such good company )

Sounds like a fascinating project and I look forward to reading the stories David. For starters I thoroughly enjoyed the short video some young filmmakers made some while back for a Cisco contest, featuring how Tim Ferriss used what technology in his home: http://bit.ly/aezhEm

I’d love to hear the backstory to the steps Cisco went through to crowdsource the I-Prize.. told in a way that it might be a primer for other businesses and organizations to receive innovative ideas they could use. That’s how i first heard about Bright Idea and Spigit. Also how Cisco followed up with Ireland to help with their contest.

As you offer more tools for our social and personal life I’d love to hear exactly how they were used and what-if scenarios for how they could be adapted to other situations.
