If these animals can innovate and be creative, so can you. After all you’re smarter than an animal, aren’t you?

Adding Value to Rubber Bands

Feb 27, 2008

A few days ago, Robert Scoble asked the question of how you can add value to rubber bands.

I think it’s a great thought experiment, and some interesting ideas have been thrown up. But more than anything, it’s a great example of how, with some creativity, opportunities can be found everywhere.

Even a simple rubber band can be valuable, when used in innovative ways.

Share Your Story – and Win a copy of Meatball Sundae

Jan 21, 2008

Meatball Sundae by Seth Godin[edit]The contest has now been extended to February  10! That gives you 10 extra days to get your entry. [end edit]

Here’s your chance to win a copy of Seth Godin’s latest book, Meatball Sundae. I’ll be giving away a free copy of Meatball Sundae at the end of the month (January 31) on February 10, so read on for details.

One of the main points of Meatball Sundae is the power of stories. And so, in the spirit of that, here’s all you need to do to be a part of this contest: Share your story.

Your story doesn’t have to be your auto-biography or your about page. In fact, your true story probably isn’t. It’s the one with the drama, emotions, tragedy, action. It’s the story that shows what you believe in, what you stand for.

Put simply, your story is an expression of who you are – an answer to the question of why you are who you are today.

So, share your story with us (me and the fellow readers). There are no fixed rules to this contest. Express yourself, and share your story in whatever way is the most natural to you. Write a post on your blog, leave a comment (or an audio/video comment) here, do a podcast, record a song, do a video and post it on Youtube, even. It’s your choice. Be creative. Make it remarkable. Make it something that people will talk about. And encourage your readers and friends to do the same.

Just leave a comment or link to this post (or email me) so that I know you’ve entered. And make sure to do it before January 31 February 10.

And at the end of the month, one lucky winner will get a brand new copy of Seth Godin’s Meatball Sundae.
