Looking for more experts for our "Conversations on Innovation" series

conversations-on-innovationWe hope you’ve noticed the series of posts we’ve been running called “Conversations on Innovation.” Every few days or so, we publish another piece about the most cutting-edge technology of the day, from human interface technology to the cloud and (coming up next) electronic health care.

We’ve been getting some good feedback. We’re running some of the comments on a widget on our front page (see left, for how it looks). We’ve still got several topics to go, including extreme computing and smart power. We’ve got some promising columns lined up, but we’d still love to hear your feedback. We’d also welcome hearing from experts who’d like to try their hand at writing a column for the series. The series is sponsored by Microsoft, but anyone can write for it, and VentureBeat’s editors decide what gets published.

Thanks for reading, and stay tuned!

Here’s our introductory post, and here are some of the columns that have run so far:

How phones emerged as main computing devices, and why user interface will improve

“Touch” technology for desktop computing finally taking off
