Ideas...

For those who know me, I'm an idea person. I have lots of ideas and I'd love to be an entreprenneur if only I could raise the startup capital for my ideas. But alas, I may not be poor, but I certainly don't have the finances to start the companies I want to start.

Last night I was hit with a serious (for me) bout of insomnia and I decided to throw some of my ideas on a simple web page. If you're interested, check them out at http://biz.datasquire.net. If you would like to fund any, please let me know. If you decide to use any of my ideas without my inclusion all I ask in payment is one copy of each product you make using my ideas or, if it's a service, that I get in free. (You get the point, I think. I just want access to what you did with my ideas...)

So why can't I get funding? Simple. Venture capitalists generally only fund projects where first the founder is completely dedicated to just that project and nothing else. I don't want to run any of these (with the possible exception of the first on the list) for the rest of my life. I want to get the company started and sell it off and move on for the most part. Second, they only fund people who have already been very successful in the field they need funding for. Well.. I don't have that kind of background so I'd need to rely on someone who had complete faith in me and well... no one with that kind of money is likely to take that kind of risk. So.... I open this out to others who would like to partner with me.

Enjoy.
