Well, the end of April is already upon us, and Organism continues to evolve. Our landing page can be seen at http://groworganism.com and we invite your observations, comments, and participation there. Again, our thanks to Jesse at EjHosting.com, for his generous donation of hosting services.
Recently, we entered Organism for consideration in the LeanStartup Challenge, and were one of eleven startups chosen from a field of over 80 entrants of all types. We heard from Appsumo founder Noah Kagan, and have won a mentorship with Dave McClure, a San Francisco based VC who runs the startup incubator “500 Startups”. We are looking forward to working with Dave as we enter our next round of development.
Some of the ways we plan to develop our product and move forward is to continue to improve the look and navigability of GrowOrganism. There we are opening a dialog, and are inviting responses on surveys and blogs, to build our relationship and understanding of the entrepreneurs and innovators who want to develop and collaborate on amazing projects using a platform which focuses on engagement and productivity.
As a team, recently we started volunteering on http://www.sparked.com, where microvolunteers utilize their talents to help nonprofits from all over the world, in their spare time. It is amazing that people can join and support each other, through eliciting and offering responses, empowering others with advice, and appreciating the diversity of all in an emerging, engaging, online marketplace.
However, microvolunteering is but the tip of the iceberg! At Organism, we plan on building upon these open dialogues, and providing the collaborative tools and environment, and information exchange that people need to build their ideas in a effective online environment.
So we are excited to begin the next quarter of our operations, and invite you to check our links at
