Haha. Watch out for those trademarks...

Nope. Just named it very vague. We first met in Starbucks before started working together.

Its just a code name.

If your project really is the next big thing, if you really are in the advanced prototype stage, then you can share more information than nothing at all.

As is said everywhere within the entrepreneur world - ideas are easy, ideas are worthless, your's isn't unique, you are not the first to think of it and there is someone right now working on the exact same thing. It's all about execution - the execution of the idea, that everyone in the world has, is the key to success.

So, all of that just to say - you'll get more offers if you actually tell us what it's about.

Sure, but there are also areas where the first mover advantage counts, and where a lot of people are capable of executing the idea - some perhaps better than the guy who thought of it.

If the team has no defensible advantage, then maybe it's not such a great idea after all.

walesmd3• 19 years ago

If you're in the advanced prototyping stage you would still be the first mover. Unless it's such a horrifically simply idea that someone else could launch a competitor within the week or two you are working with a designer.

msbii4• 19 years ago

Yes, we are counting on first mover advantage. We would like to have few more months ahead of our imitators when we announce it :)
