I had thought that (1) I would get this done last night after I got home from FGS-RootsTech (WRONG!) and that (2) the list might be a little shorter than usual because so many bloggers were in Salt Lake (WRONG again). I only included one post from RootsTech, that of Randy Seaver, because he published a list of the final four in the Innovators Summit challenge, with a short blurb about what each company has developed.
