+The first four projects to come out of the innovation process were announced on March 1st with close collaboration between marketing, product, engineering and participation, creating a “single source of truth” that anchored the media coverage and trafficked interest to the respective wiki pages. This also was the first utilization of the branding process for innovations; note that each project was introduced with “Project” in their name, and none used any branding like “Fox”, “Fire”, “(Z)illa” or “Moz”. Full coverage report here. Highlights include:
+        TechCrunch: March 2nd -  Mozilla tests the waters for Firefox OS IoT apps, including a Samantha-style virtual assistant
+        SD Times: March 2nd - Mozilla details first round of IoT projects
+        Ghacks: March 3rd - Mozilla to concentrate on four IoT projects
+Wiki Updates: Marketing worked with PMs to create project abstracts and “infoboxes” for each wiki page, making the next layer of content easily consumable by media and the public. Marketing, ePM, Product and Participation continue to populate these and the related pages to ensure they’re useful, and deliver on our promise to innovate in the open. Project Link, Project Sensor Web, Project Smart Home, Project Vaani.
