Many to most of what you described appears to be happening many places.

Liz McCormick said… - will do Tom - we are ready to hit the road publicly starting Jan 'o9, and as we embark on that journey I am sure we would want to work together on deepening the understanding of the role this can play in our community.
I would like to talk with you about the first presentation you reference as a good place to start.

- Hi Tom,
Thanks for keeping me on the email list - great work in starting this community! Don't know if you remember my name or not, but we spoke about a WIRED grant in my region of West MI and my work on a national skills curriculum for innovation literacy - sound familiar? Well, as we create our content, we are also using NING as a sandbox for our students...take a look when you have the chance....beinnovative.ning.com
Our final curriculum site should be ready for first pilot starting January 2009. I'll keep in touch, and keep up your great work!!

Annalie Killian said… - Hello Tom
Congratulations on getting this ning off the ground! Just wish you allowed in the set-up for profile creation as I see its not an option in the architecture?
But, I digress.....I am visiting Chicago for a mere 24 hours from 26-27 Oct- my last stop of an international research tour I undertake to discover interesting people and ideas to bring back to Australia for a Creativity Bootcamp and Innovation & thought Leadership Festival that I produce for some 5000 employees in my company.
What's your area of interest around the Creativity and Thought Leadership space? If you think we have something in common and you have time, it would be nice to see if we can connect - I am going to visit the Uptown Poetry Slam at the Green Mill Cocktail Lounge on Sunday 26 Oct. Have you been?

RRKrishna said… - Dear Tom Tresser,
Your intiative is woenraful!
i am from India. Developing country like ours popoulaion was onace an disadvantage. now it is actually an advantage as we can support with owrk in those country where thier is less population.
But population and competation leads people to become more academic focus.
this community to should work in all developing countries in spreading and creating awarness and importance of creativity.
i am willing to do may things to support this cause
regards
