YES! Belated congradulations Becki –Have a remarkable adventure–your “Stay Hungry” reminds me of legendary Motivational Speaker Les Browns’ catch phrase = cause I’m HUNGRY!!!”

Thanks Dan, Mayor Jeremy, Johnny, and all residents of Bunkoville. WHAT AN ADVENTURE!

I would happily donate some cash to help the two runners up to get to TED. They are very worth entries and I think deserve much credit. All it need is someone to “lead the tribe”……………

Congratulations Becky!!! Enjoy the prize. You certainly did “Stay Hungry” to win the prize!!

Talk about a powerful lesson for all on working to maximize “Groundswell” (reference to Charlene Li and Josh Bernoff’s book Groundswell: Winning in a World Transformed by Social Technologies”) – the wisdom of crowds and Web 2.0!!

Also, each of the finalists had a phenomenal story to share. Thanks to Becky, Ed and Dil-Domine for their openness to sharing the motivations behind their Career Lessons.

Thanks Dan for running a very “educational” contest!! (And Thanks for all the great Learning on your blogs!!)

My only question would be to Seth – any chance you could kick in from the good will generated for your books from this contest? — and help sponsor Dil and Ed to join Becky??? They are all winners!! Their Espirit de Corps is the true winning note for all!!!

Did Seth Godin’s plug really help that much? I know I finally made my vote when I read his post.
