Tomorrow I am participating in the first-ever Innovation Bloggers Virtual Forum, a discussion on the current state of innovation thinking and practice, as well as the emerging trends that will shape the future of innovation. I will be part of a roundtable panel of people considered (by some, anyway!) to be the Web’s top innovation bloggers.

The event was conceived and is being put on by the fabulous Jeff DeCagna who blogs at Principled Innovation. He promises to at least try to podcast it, but if you are interested, you should dial in.
