Planning an OpenCoffee club on the southern Costa Blanca

This is still in the idea formulating stage, so if anyone else is interested in helping out then please get in touch.

The idea is to be based south of Alicante and down to La Manga, even possibly going inland as far as Murcia and Orihuela, so the exact venue (or even town) is yet to be decided.

Anyone interested in this area, please get in touch and I can start to get things planned and contact the local media to see if we can get some local publicity. Also, as my Spanish… Continue

Another blog?

Please... I really hope NING could offer a feature to integrate my existing Blog's RSS feed here so that I don't need to write another blog..

Hi!

I saw a blurb about Open Coffee Club and liked the concept of like-minded people meeting in a casual environment to discuss common business issues. I go to other networking meetings--which I like and are fine--but the idea of meeting a Starbucks or a coffee house appeals to me.

So I'm looking for folks to meet with in the West Chester, Cincinnati area.

Cheers!

Jon

An Introduction

These introductions always start with something like "Hello everybody." That's a bit boring, and doesn't say anything. Now, social interaction theory would say that to get somebody interested, you have to involve them. An example: the most successful speed dating chat up line in a rigorous* experiment was, "If you were a pizza topping, what would you be?"

I'm not that good at pizzas, but here's a go:

"if you were a a 2D doodle on a piece of paper, what would you… Continue

About me:

I am an architecture student in my early 20s, with a strong interest in historic preservation/adaptive reuse. I am pretty good with design, however my abilities are currently limited to still images. I am sort of tinkering with an idea for a niche social networking site, but I definitly do not have the know-how to set it up just yet.

I am also very interested in real estate investment/re-investment, and hope to start my own reuse/preservation startup in near future.

What's Your Business Idea Worth?

Over the years I've watched lots of friends and peers come up with great ideas for all sorts of new businesses or technologies...and came up with a few myself.

It's no surprise that many of them never got past the 'idea' stage. Then, no doubt months later you'd read of a new website offering a service or technology 'just like' what they had had in mind.

The challege is always the same.

The idea is only a small part of the journey. now, ask anyone...how do I get from Idea…
