The Winners of the Brooks Running Shoes are…

Once again, the drawing for a pair of Brooks running shoes was an extremely popular reward among the Earndit community.   The gracious people at Brooks decided to give away two pairs of shoes this time, so we had two lucky winners!  It’s interesting to note that most people who entered the drawing bought several entries.

Without further ado, the winners of a free pair of Brooks running shoes of their choosing are:

Matt Pierson. You can see his profile here.

Karen Bohlen. You can see her profile here.

Thank you all very much for participating, and please join me in thanking Brooks for their commitment to encourage Earndit members to stay active.  Brooks makes state-of-the-art running shoes and we’re delighted to see the positive reaction from the Earndit community.

Search for other Earndit members to follow

In a startup, founders always have to prioritize certain enhancements and product ideas over others. We currently have a huge list of developments we plan to make to Earndit in the next 6 months. For a while there’s been a glaring hole in the Earndit experience that we’ve been wanting to fill, and now we can say it’s been addressed. You can now easily search for other Earndit members via a search box in the “Rankings” page (aka the leaderboard page).

Just type in someone’s first OR last name, and you’ll see a list of possible matches from the Earndit community. From that list you can view an individual’s profile and then click the “Follow” button that’s on his or her profile page.

We hope you’ll use this new search function to find other members to follow for inspiration!
