no i'm busy raising seed funds for my app, Buttlr - to put it simply, it's an eclectic mix of tinder, uber and snapchat, exclusively for butts. oh and don't worry, we review and monitor all butts so only the highest quality butts are chosen and featured.

can't disclose TOO much more unless you sign an NDA, hit me up if interested and have money.

this app will NOT be free, and the web browser will be sold separately. also it will only run on linux and has certain hardware requirements including, but not limited to: all devices must be SCSI including the proprietary SCSI floppy drive which we also invented (Also known as the iScoppy).

the iScoppy drive will be available in Q3 2016.

i will look into it. here is an "industry leak" on the iScoppy:

"the proprietary iScoppy external SCSI floppy drive is used for security purposes to encrypt website urls for security purposes. The drive is made of lead to protect it from magnetic fields, A 32 character alphanumeric passcode is required to insert or eject a "crypto-disk" which stores the unique encryption key for each website. to access the database you must inset the matching "crypto-disk" to unlock the database record for that specific website. The iScoppy drive weighs 120lbs and is a 1' x 1' x 1' foot lead cube."

this is my first attempt at "Crowd-sourcing" so i dont know all the lingo yet, but if you mean "how much money do you need" then the answer is about 79.4 million U.S. dollars. hth

to clarify, i expect the ROI of this project to be around 85 million in revenue. i have not figured out all the costs yet but the manufacturing alone of the iScoppy is about $16K per unit and we should be able to pump out about 7 or 8 a year.

i shouldnt be telling you this but the real revenue stream is the proprietary "crypto-disks" for the iScoppy. the more websites you enter into iPages, the more "crypto-disks" you have to buy. the disks will retail for around $425, with a 10 pack for $3999. its kind of like taking candy from a baby. i got the idea from HP print cartridges.

obviously the proprietary browser will another big "add-on" for revenue. it is tentatively called "iWebsites" and should be available Q3 2017

"iWebsites" will be restricted to "web pages" that are entered into "iPages" and unlocked via the "iScoppy". for added security the browser will only function in 1 hour intervals, 3 times a day. the "time-lock" will be randomized to prevent theft of website information.

in my last startup (we hacked the gay dog dating industry with an app called Grrrindr), we had 10 high paid ideas men and an intern who was responsible for development, design, fundraising, sales, marketing and PR.
