Wordpress is you best bet. Most hosting companies have a "one click installation" through CPanel. Hostgator is one of them, i've learned a lot since building my first Wordpress website. It's a fun experience.

I recommend buying your domain and hosting from the same provider.

Always be careful in these types of situations. Do you remember signing a non-compete with your current company?

If you see value ie. through a monetary sense OR another, I would speak to a employment Lawyer to make sure you can't get in trouble. Last thing you want is being sued for what your company lost in revenue + all other expenses.

You must have some great talent id this other guy wants you as co-founder, keep up the good work.

I really appreciate the lengthy response, it really means a lot and it helps a lot getting insight from the tech world. It definitely is not an easy thing to do, but then what is right?

I have found some open source algorithms that claim to have a decent amount of accuracy, though decent isn't enough it may be a start. What is your opinion?

Going as far as contacting the NSA, I don't know how willing they are in sharing their technology. I know they do work with private corporations which benefit both parties, I guess it would be worth a shot. That would be an interesting approach.

How long do you think it would take to build something like this? Even if we could just get sentiment values ie. Positive / neutral / Negative comments, that would be a great start and I believe much simpler.

In short form- an analytics software that analyzes what people are saying and the meaning. yes, i know there many variables and algorithms and it will never be 100% AND there is a way to monitize the data

I definitely agree with this model, and before i work with anyone I would definitely have to do some befriending. The only problem, none of my friends have a passion for business, or have the technical skills for it.

I really appreciate your input.
