After providing an overview of the previous research in the areas of interactive value creation and User Toolkits, this paper this paper presents the design of an Embedded User Toolkit and a preliminary field study conducted using a prototypical toolkit implementation. Finally the results of this study which will serve to guide future research are presented. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
