How about some REAL INNOVATION, PEOPLE?
Not this warmed-over, iterative solipsism. Our technology is circling the drain of self-perpetuating narcisism. Investors are a spineless bunch who shy away from anything actually "new and daring". What happened to the "V" in "Venture Capital"? You know the part where you are actually taking a RISK on something?

No offense intended to the Memeoirs guys personally.

However, I also believe it's possible to create value with technology that is not a major innovation. That said, the value Memeoirs creates is the perpetuation of people's "digital letters". We don't want to live in a world where there is no tangible written communication and we believe we are not alone. I would also like to point out that this was not VP money. Our investor is an Italian printing group who does not usually invest in other companies.
