Innovation Award:  Kiger's Notebook

In a previous post, I mentioned that we would be awarding "Innovation Awards" to local websites that impressed us. As you may recall, the criteria for this award was to show a "creative use of the web". Today, the first award goes to.... Kiger's Notebook. This spontaneous blog focuses on SE Minnesota Business Information and/or anything that Jeff Kiger finds interesting. Posts are usually quick, contain typos and often only include half the story. So why is this website deserving of this award? Because Jeff gets the dirt and isn't afraid to publish it.

Most journalists have a polished writing style and check things thoroughly before "going to press". This might have been great in the "industrial age", but in the "information age" you have to be resourceful and quick. His faithful readers don't care that he often struggles to form complete sentences because the topics are local, fresh and sometimes controversial. Years ago, local citizens would wait for the monthly "SE Business Journal" for local business news. Today, you can get this information on Kiger's Blog weeks before it could ever get to print. For this creativity, Jeff Kiger gets our first "Innovation Award".

Do you know of a website that deserves the Innovation Award? Let us know.
