The company firedog is tapping into our storytelling times—and offering quite a tidy bounty. Topic: A personal story about how a local firehouse has demonstrated service to your community. If your story is chosen as one of 10 finalists, firedog will give you a “techover” that’s said to be worth $10,000 (i.e. you’re going to have kickass wireless speakers by the time they’re done with your pad), and the fire station receives $20,000.
