Great!

It will be made into A suspense thriller with multiple intervals inbetween, 2 or 3 or more depending upon the number of posts you write.Smile

Because of this initiative after so many days I have taken my writing seriously...and I'm satisfied with the outcomes. :)

I think closing time of 10pm should be extended to 12 pm.

Keeping the closing time at 10 would ensure that bloggers don't lose their sleep trying to submit at the last moment Cool

Only contest posts need to be submitted at last moment.

Wonderful initiative, Very motivating indeed.

Is the winner going to be decided upon the number of votes? If that is the case it would suck. It's like Chetan Bhagat trumping Malcolm Gladwell (at least in India).

Ranjith

The topic would be selected based on votes.

There is nothing like winners for a topic.

Wonder why the IndiSpire mails have 'Skyscanner meet page' linked up with that 'IndiSpire bulb image' at the top instead of the real thing? Undecided

I was thinking that even this could happen...and it has...

Now der are two latest posts on home page under Indispire which are on unrelated topics- NaMo and Delhi's crumbling metro infrastructure....

There shd b a way to chk d content of the posts as well, otherwise jst to get featured on homepg ppl can do this too n not just b back from d dead!!

Amrita, Agree with you. But, how will the system judge whether we have posted relevant content?

If it looks for the hashtag in our Post, we may be smart enough to have employed the required hashtag & yet have strayed outside the boundaries of the Topic! Innocent

Anita, the only way is to report to IndiTeam using the report button and they will remove it.......But still these posts have their 15 min (or hours) of fame.

Anita

Yes, Saket. IndiTeam removed those Posts pretty fast, but they enjoyed the IB Home-Page advantage for some time!

I love the IndiSpire idea.

I have 1 suggestion-

Could we please have no Voting for this? Else, the Voting can be on the lines of the idea-submission for IndiSpire- in which we see only max 5 latest Voters. Our Post need not be anonymous, but no one knows the total number of Votes of our entry. The total Vote Count for all the submissions & the true 'Top-Post' will be known on the last day.

I feel this will-

A) Earn the quality posts their deserving Votes

B) Encourage everyone to read & comment on the Posts & then Vote if they like it. (just like we are doing for the IndiSpire ideas now)

I think present setup is just fine. If originator name is disclosed then false voting would come up. One will start voting to get back vote for his topic. And spamming would start.
Anita

Rio, I am not referring to the IndiSpire idea/prompt stage. It's just fine! Anonymity works great and an idea is selected on the basis of its strength.

My Suggestion is that let us have the same set-up for our IndiSpired Post/Entry where once we submit our entry, we can see only the latest 5 voters and not the total number of votes or voters (just like in the IndiSpire idea/prompt now)

Ohhk, that idea is worth considering. I got the lines wrong.

this home page feature gonna attract more writers.

Shouldn't it be IndiSpire? Tongue out

or is IndiSpired past tense of IndiSpire? Innocent

Anita
from Bhubaneswar
10 years ago

It should be IndiSpire if we are referring to the Noun form (as the Name of this new initiative).

Else, IndiSpired (liked Inspired) if we are referring to the Verb form!

Both are apt! Innocent

indispired post is more apt, as these posts have come up after being inspired at indispire. so rightly it is in past tense. btw, you could have included me in the snapshot but alas.

Anita

Rio, Ranjith took the snapshot before you submitted your latest one! Innocent

I was just joking Anita,

Love this IndiSpire initiative. It is so motivating that the latest IndiSpire Posts feature on the IB Home-page. Laughing

Some of the stories moved me to tears. Cry

Loved to be #BackFromTheDead . After writing my story & reading everyone's comments, I truly believe I am #BackFromTheDead ! Cool

Thanks IB for the opportunity.

Waking up from the dead and watching how life unfolded without you.. Is your lover remarried? Is your mother over your loss and likewise. #BackFromTheDead Damn, I am half way through this and I am crying like a 5 year old who is lost in a trade fair or something... I think the response to this edition will be the longest post in my blog. CryCryCry 

yo, waiting to read your post.Laughing

Amazing initiative. It was high time I got more involved in Indiblogger activities. My lifestyle blog was in hibernate mode. Hopefully I will find some inspiration here to post more often. I already see interesting topics. Posted one of mine! et's see what happens. 

Kudos to the Indiblogger team for always doing the best to help us bloggers!

Certainly a good concept. Here we get topics which are really interesting to write upon. Indiblogger is now expanding beyond shampoo topics :D

congo"s Shruti on your idea winning and truly, at first glance I wasn't much  attracted by it. but when I plunged, I am glad I opted to write on this theme. I am enjoying my writeups.Laughing

I rarely log here.. sucha  coincidence, i visited the thread or else I would have missed this.. thankie.. and I wrote this prompt because I have often felt like I woke up from the dead,.. thanks to my endless "death dreams".. I've enjoyed reading your opener :)

there is a bug again, unable to vote at indispire posts

bug still there. voting for posts submitted at indispire  doesn't pass through.

At 10PM every Thursday, the next edition activates, and the idea with the most votes is selected. In the case of a tie, the IB server selects one at random.

Earlier it was, 'IndiAdmins select an idea' to break the tie. Innocent
