International Assignments

1ofus's picture

It occurs to me that with the international interest and mobile contributors, it is possible to cover the same topic through sevral different eyes.

For instance, I live in UK close to London and would be interested in covering topics related to Crowdsourcing nonfiction books and their prime movers. Hence, I have already volunteered for the assignment to interview Charles Leadbeater, author of We-Think. As I will be spending a week in Boston soon I would also like to interview Tom Malone (and the rest of We Are Smarter Than Me Board). I have been involved in the project since November 2006.

It occurs to me that you might have someone else normally based in US who could do the same. I believe that even if we asked the same questionms, it is likely that there would be differences in answers and certainly in our individual follow up questions.
