    Knight 2008 News Challenge Winner

    The entire Beanstockd Team has been running on full throttle with producing the public edition of the Game, rolling out new/better/frequent video content, preparations for serving as the University of North Carolina's marketing course's fall 2009 case study, implementing advertising and other business model/administrative initiatives, and increasing our traffic across the board (which has been off the charts lately!!).

    In light of this, and with incredibly valuable advice from our Board of Directors (special thanks to Robert Kraft of Fox Music!) we have decided to push back our preparations for a Beanstockd environmental film for the time being. It will still be on the agenda, but we're pushing back production for at least for 4-6 months to enable us to focus our efforts on our core projects.

    We're very pleased with this decision, as it allows us to really ramp up our current projects, and will enable us to do a much better job on the video when we do pick this project, a GREAT addition to our portfolio of offerings to our readership, up again in the future.

    The problem is that the remedies proposed would undermine the characteristics of the Internet that have made it such a fantastic engine of innovation -- primarily the right to innovate without permission from an incumbent who may be threatened by your innovation.
