The Latest CarnivalThe last Carnival of Trust was hosted by Clarke Ching at Clarke Ching—More Chilli Please. Articles for the next carnival can be submitted here. What It's AboutTrust is a subject near and dear to my heart. I believe trust is an increasingly important element in a business world and a society that is becoming more dependent on connections, yet more and more removed from the high-touch interpersonal connections of old. A higher-trust society is a society that is personally healthier, and also economically richer. Not to mention probably more peaceful. My hope and ambition for the carnival is to establish a home base, a center of gravity, for people who are interested in fostering greater trusted relationships in various realms of the world. While my own material is primarily business-oriented, the Carnival of Trust will be explicitly more broad than business alone. Trust is heavily personal in nature, and I hope the submissions will reflect that—postings that deal with personal trust, business trust, and political trust are welcome, as well as pieces on the nature of trust. There is a hard limit of 10 postings per Carnival. The host will personally make the decisions about inclusion, in an inevitably subjective manner intended to push thinking ahead in those broad areas of trust. The carnival comes out once a month, on the first Monday of each month. The deadline for submissions (see http://blogcarnival.com/bc/submit_1693.html) is always the prior Thursday.

Please be sure the article is related to trust and be aware that each host will choose only ten articles each month. The deadline for submissions is always the Thursday before the first Monday of each month. Becoming a A Carnival HostThe carnival is hosted once a month, on the first Monday of the month. If you'd like to host please send an e-mail to carnivaloftrust-at-trustedadvisor-dot-com with “Carnival Host” in the subject line. The primary responsibility of a host of the carnival is to choose 10 articles for the carnival. The host must then write a short blurb introducing each post chosen for inclusion explaining why it is worth the viewer's time to click through and read the entire thing. If a host can't come up with a good reason why others should should read the post, it shouldn't be in the carnival. Detailed instructions, including graphics and examples of prior carnivals are sent to each host and we work closely with each host to answer any questions, give needed support and make sure the carnival is a success. Once the carnival goes live it is seeded on Digg and Reddit and e-mails are sent out to participants. Trust Matters will announce the carnival and it will be archived here. All blogs which host the carnival will receive a permanent link from this page, both in the Prior Carnival Editions section, and on the sidebar. |
