Ruckus Nation Semi-Finalists Announced!

Ruckus Nation’s competition to get kids moving…  moves on!

The semi finalists have been chosen and you can view the whole listing at http://www.ruckusnation.com/semifinalists.html. There’s some really wacky stuff there, but mainly a good solid group of products some of which you’ve probably even thought of yourself.

My favourite is “mile a minute” under the “other” catagory. The premise is that you earn points and other accolades which are tracked by a hybrid mobile phone/pedometer. The part I really like is the “getting free minutes” of talk time for your phone…

Having said that, I think we really need incentives which appeal to kids. So, I’m not sure how well this will apply… do kids need money these days? When I was that age I was glad to get a dollar to go and get mixed lollies at the local store. But then again there was no such thing as mobile phones back then either!

Congrats to the semi-finalists so far. I greatly look forward to seeing the finalists, and wish I had the time to make my way to San Franciso to see the whole shebang.

Tune in again soon for my secret dealings with… “The Colorado Experiment”.
