Hello!

You've landed in the archive of the Cambrian House community. We've kept some pages here for posterity but the community is no longer active. Now we market the technology that made our early crowdsourcing a success.

Can we help you get to Cambrian House the company? – Come on over.

Nominate for your Council!

Saturday, September 30th, 2006

Fall is a customary time to hold an election, and so Cambrian House is now looking to you, our Community, to elect the Council.

Cambrian House is now accepting nominations for Council members.

We’ll keep nominations open until October 15th, and then open up voting until November 1st.

What is the Council?
The Council was created to support and represent community members who have questions, feedback, or grievances that need addressing within the Cambrian House community.

We understand that as the community grows, situations and instances will periodically arise that will require an objective intermediary to mediate and settle.

It is in our interests to embrace the community in helping us charter its direction and operation. Periodic corrections and changes are going to be required and the community has a key role to play in providing feedback going forward.

Who’s on the Council
The Council will consist of five people. Two will be Cambrian House representatives, and three will be independent community members. Community members will be voted in, and serve fixed terms (typically six months).

Know anyone up for the job? Nominate them!

Prepping Contenders for IdeaWarz 3.0

Monday, September 25th, 2006

Hey there Community!

Some of you might have noticed that we recently pulled the Top 2 ideas from IdeaWarz and placed them in a category known as Contenders.

These ideas are being prepped for battle in the newest version of IdeaWarz coming in November.

We’re going to continue to pull top and rising crowd-approved ideas from this version of IdeaWarz, so keep on voting and your idea may soon join the ranks of Contender.

Need a synch-up about the new IdeaWarz to come? Check out the Primordial Soup #6 and the CH blog.

Community Project Update

Friday, September 22nd, 2006

Hi all,

Things have been super busy and I’m pumped to finally have a moment to sit down and tell you about it. Here are the headlines:

Cambrian House is going pro on Gwabs

That’s right people. You voted for it. It delivered in the market tests. And now we are going to build it. We’re going pro on Gwabs and can’t wait to see this game in action. More details will be emerging from the Gwabs team over the next week regarding dates, tasks, and news.

BigHal fails to impress at the box office

BigHal was a novel idea we really liked, but we just didn’t get the numbers to support it. Our own Hal will just have to wait a little longer to have a big brother.

It’s full steam ahead for Prezzle

The team is building momentum, meeting members from around the world and working on Royalty Points tasks. If you’d like to be involved get in touch with Zach. (zach at cambrianhouse.com)

AWA (AddWord Alerts) Renoworks are decommissioned

AWA and Renoworks were two innovative product ideas hawked to the world way back in spring of last year. These ideas have since flat lined so they’re heading for the morgue.

101 Hollywood Moments needs more submissions

Everyone has a Hollywood Moment - and we’re looking to more submissions. Check the project page and find out how we’ve made it even easier to submit your magic moment. Who’da thunk being published was this easy?

Get your wish ready for Robinhood Fund

Finally, Robin Hood is on the scene. We’ve had great readings from the market place on this idea and we’re anxious to make your wishes come true. Construction will soon be underway.

IdeaWarz

Now that the calendar is cleared (no more trips or distractions on the horizon) I’m looking forward to focusing 100% on the next version of IdeaWarz. The forge is hot, and the new tournament style will cure many of the ills of the current version. I appreciate your patience.

That’s all folks

And there you have it, the latest and greatest from behind the scenes at CH.
