Kelley is bringing a new series of reports to The National, called "Seven." Kelley tries on a different lifestyle and a different point of view for one week... it's a seven-day immersion into someone else's life and their role in the world.

Kelley has tried his hand at hitchhiking across the country, literally depending on the kindness of strangers.

He's spent a week teaching a class at B.C.'s lowest-ranked school.

And on Tuesday, Dec. 19, he'll take your suggestions on what challenge to face next.

• What would you like to know about Mark's work adventures?
• What job would you suggest he investigate and why?
• What could Mark expect if he did your job, and how would it challenge him?

CBC.ca welcomed Martha Hall Findlay to our Live Chats.

Martha Hall Findlay was a recent candidate for the federal Liberal Party leadership. She was the only woman to remain in the leadership race through to the balloting stage.

Martha Hall Findlay joined us Dec. 8, 2006 to talk about the challenges of her campaign and the democracy issues around getting new people, young people and women involved — and seeing them be successful — in politics.

CBC.ca is starting to roll out our plan for Live Chats... your chance to talk to the newsmakers, ask questions and read their replies.

This is where you'll find them when they're happening live online, and this is also the place to read the text of these interesting discussions when the opportunity to comment has passed.

We welcome your input and your participation. You'll also be seeing more information about CBC.ca's live chats on our website as we start bringing the newsmakers to your desktop, laptop or wherever you are.

As they say in the Old Media... stay tuned.
