Social Entrepreneurship not slowing down

The economy is hurting big businesses, but what about the little guy? The guy with socially conscious ideas and new developments in the works? They're getting together and sounding off at a place on the web called Ideablob.com. The website is a community and sounding board for social entrepreneurs and small business owners.

Instead of continuing "non-disclosure agreements", the website encourages entrepreneurs to share ideas and tips to success while promoting new ideas and fresh visons. Each month the website wards $10,000 the best new small business idea, which is voted on by ideablob.com users.

Nina Forman of Ideablob.com says, "The contest motivates entrepreneurs to do imaginative things to advance their business, to get the word out about it and to garner and lobby for contest votes at the same time."
