Yesterday, Yahoo!'s Ian Kennedy came up with a brilliantly simple idea: add money to an Enterprise Digg

A little while ago, I wrote an article calling for an Enterprise version of Digg:

"Even if your boss hates your idea, if 200 people in the company Digg it, the CEO has to pay attention"

Ian has figured it out one better. Imagine a big company, like Yahoo! or Google, sets up an Enterprise Digg.

The company can run a quarterly innovation pool. Every employee is given $100 to spend on good ideas they posted within the company Wiki and across the company enterprise blogs.

The ideas can be an idea for a new product, a great tip / time saver, or a great example of some kind of accomplishment.

It costs $1 to submit an idea. It costs $1 to "digg" an idea. The pay out comes with the most dugg article. If you wrote it, you get 1/2 of the pool. If you voted on it before it made it to the front page, you share the other half with all the people who voted it onto the front page.

To keep people honest, there is no cash reward to saying you digg an article that has already made it onto the front page. Hopefully, most people will still be interested in seeing a good idea succeed.
