Two Years of Innovation Blogging and Counting…

Innovating To Win is two years old today!  It’s hard to believe, but after 238 posts on a broad range of innovation topics, here we are.  It has been great fun thanks to all of you who read this blog and engage in the conversation via comments, trackbacks, or private emails.

I’ve been trying to update the site recently with some new formatting and features.  The latest is the post rating feature which I hope you’ll make use of so that other readers can see which articles you found useful and interesting.

In the coming weeks, I will try and get around to retagging the content with more categories so that it is easier to find stuff.  (Yes, I’ve been procrastinating on this task.)  Combined with the other recent changes, I think this will make it much easier to navigate to useful information.

I am looking forward to the next two years.  Now, if I can only find the time to write all the posts I have in the mental queue.

Thanks for your support; thanks for reading; and thanks for the feedback.

Congratulations James!! I look forward for your thought leadership on this topic. I guess it is time to reclassify all your blog as a book, (how about a blook..)

Best,
Prakash

I've heard that the terrible twos are the most talkative years. ;-)

Congratulations, Jim! So what have you learned from the experience of the last two years? How has your blog impacted your innovation views and abilities? (And for that matter, how has it affected your time-management efforts?) ;-)

All the best,

- Jim

Great work, Jim. I notice how you are using Twitter more to keep up with that "mental queue." Me too. We'll have to compare notes over time on how effective this is.

Congratulations.

Prakash, Chuck, Jim, and Drew:

Thanks for the good wishes. I am excited about this year for innovation and about sharing in the conversation through blogging.

To answer your question, Jim, the experience has helped hone and focus my innovation vision. Not only in crystalizing throughts and way of communicating about innovation, but also in practice as I build new capabilities to help client enable their own sustainable innovation cultures. It has also forced me to be much more time management aware. (Blogging take much more time and effort than I imagined.)

Of course, now I am also on Twitter. You can follow me by clicking on the Follow Me link in the right hand side bar.
