I challenge you...

...to design me a website. Well that is the premise anyway. The company I work for recently played host to a contest held at SitePoint.com to redesign a website. In this case the reward was just north of $300. The results? Incredible. A swarm of designers turned in more than two dozen entries with multiple modifications over a period of two weeks. I'll be writing more about the specifics in another article (Shhhhh!). In reality, the quality of the designs and the professionalism of the designers were comparable to any professional with which I've ever worked.

What I'm really considering though is the bigger role these online contests could play in our society.

Hmmmmm......
