Startup Blogs, Startup TV, Startup Incentives
There are always new businesses starting up, but it seems that this is a hot time for the “startup”, especially for online businesses. In my weblog subscriptions folder, I found around ten weblogs about Startups, many of which are relatively new sites themselves. Then there’s a new online reality show called StartUp, with 21 episodes scheduled, that will show at HDOnlineCinema.
With all this Startup fever in the air, if you think you have some salable ideas but not the wherewithal to get them started, check out Cambrian House, a crowdsourcing site. Ideas come together and wisdom and skills are combined, according to their How it works page.
There’s also MobIncentive [via Entering Startup], another crowdsourcing site. You propose an idea that you’d like to see become reality, and, if I understand correctly, others who agree offer cash incentives to the person or group who is willing to complete the idea. If you have a look at the current items, though, being the fastest to drink a beer (for a prize of $20) isn’t exactly in the entrepreneurial vein.
