social media thing (just assume it's this.cm. Mine is an experiment and I don't plan on making money on):
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7¹, 8, 9, 10², 11, 12², 14, 15, 16
¹ not counted, as I'm not the first mover
² debatable
edit: I don't think my Idea is an easy opportunity to make money because of the network effect (which ironically makes tick a few of the points), making it hard to gain critical mass. And It's also hard because of the existing, well defended, monopolies and big players.
- danieltillett 11y agoI am surprised that you consider a social media opportunity can be bootstrapped (i.e hits point 1). Has there ever been a successful social media company that has not required outside funding? I think I really need to flesh these checklists out more.
- anotheryou 11y agoAs said, this is a research experiment I'm doing, not aiming at necessary success. Absolute minimum to at least do some qualitative analysis would be 30 active and connected users (my friends that I could talk to) using it for a month or so. I'm doing it because the problems are hard and interesting. I'm writing my diploma about the general thing.
- danieltillett 11y agoI am not criticising you - I am criticising myself for not making these criteria more explicit. If I had better explained what I meant by 1 for example then you would not have thought that your idea was bootstrapable. Good luck with the diploma.
- anotheryou 11y agoah right, thanks :)
