It's New Year's eve, and I'm up in the mountains of northern Vermont, skiing for the first time in more than two decades. I wanted to write a quick end-of-2010 post thanking everyone who helped make Where Good Ideas Come From a success: all the folks who bought the book, told their friends about it, blogged and tweeted, and most of all the people who came out to the events. It was the most hectic tour I've done to date, but also the most fun and the most rewarding, thanks to all the great conversations I had along the way.

I've been tweeting some of the best-of-2010 accolades as they've come in, but here's a quick blog wrap-up. The Economist and Canada's National Post included Good Ideas on their best books of the year lists. It was named one of the best business books of the year by Amazon, Inc Magazine, Strategy+Business, and a number of other blogs. 800CEORead named it as a finalist for their business book of the year award; the winner will be announced in January.

Speaking of 800CEORead, they've just published an interview I did with Kate Mytty about a month ago. It covers a lot of ground that I haven't covered in other interviews to date, including some thoughts about the process of writing the book, and some speculative thoughts about new organizational structures. If you want an interview you can listen to, I stopped by Science Friday last week for a Christmas Eve conversation with the excellent Ira Flatow.

I hope everyone has a great New Year's holiday, and here's to us all having more good ideas in 2011.
