I think we are all on the ground floor of this legit co. I like that Vals ear is to the ground listening to investors, I like that he responded via that pr clearly to investors , I like that all the pieces appear to be falling into place. Palm Coast is obviously the focus right now with DR possibly on the back burner until financing arrives. That doesnt bother me one bit. Flagler County was THE biggest growing metro in the nation according to the census and CNN article below. So dont think he is setting up shop in some area that doesnt have explosive growth potential as well.
"The growth wasn't evenly spread through the area, though. While cities like Palm Coast (population 75,180, up 130 percent), Deltona (85,182, 22 percent) and Port Orange (56,048, 22 percent) were big gainers,..."
Metro Areas
All 10 of the most populous metro areas in 2010 grew over the last decade. Approximately one out of every 10 people in the United States lived in either Los Angeles or New York, the nation's two most populous metro areas.
Several metro areas accounted for large portions of their respective state's 2010 population and growth since 2000. Las Vegas accounted for almost three-quarters of Nevada's population and over four-fifths of its growth. The Atlanta metro area was responsible for more than half of Georgia's 2010 population and more than two-thirds of the state's growth. The Dallas-Fort Worth and Houston metro areas together accounted for almost half of the population of Texas and more than half of the state's growth.
Overall, the fastest growing metro areas in the country were Palm Coast, Fla. (92.0 percent), St. George, Utah (52.9 percent), Las Vegas, Nev. (41.8 percent), Raleigh, N.C. (41.8 percent) and Cape Coral, Fla. (40.3 percent).

Nope Palm Coast is in the upper right corner of the state south of Jacksonville. Guess you will have to manage from afar - home office ;) .....
So its looking like VAL , GREG THE GREEK AND EMZ ON OUR BOARD DUE TO SHEER SHARE COUNTS LOL.......I am liking it... what a distinguished board that will be. EMZ are you ready to move to Palm Coast yet ? Ps there is no MACYS in Palm Coast ...lol.
We will need a janitor as well ...Tuna are you available ?
Agreed...Greek how did you come across OTOW and eventually meet-talk to Val ? I just stumbled across OTOW doing online stock research ....I think EMZ said he heard some cell industry execs talking over bowling.....
Anyone one else here - how did you hear about and decide to invest in OTOW - just curious ?
The honesty in the pr was great and highly appreciated. I have never personally seen a pink pr announcing that basically something didnt go right or as planned and wasnt going to happen.....VERY appreciated, VERY transparent...doesnt happen in Pinkland at all in my personal experience. Yet another reason to hold for me .
GO VAL , GO OTOW !!!!!
Did the MM's already get their slap on the wrist or a tip ???? Whats up with the volume today ?????? Coincidence ?
UP 8.79% !
Foot traffic must be pretty decent there ...here is a boutique for sale there that back in 2006 did $237,547 in sales in only 1150 sq ft.
"Description
A distinctive boutique & Gift Shop located in the European Village Resort. Where old world charm meets coastal Florida hospitality. The gross sales for 2006 was $237,547. Owner occupied retail shop with 1150 Sq. Ft. of space. Two dressing rooms, bath room & an open area to dispaly the merchandise. Excellent opportunity for a family owned business. The streets are paved with stone pavers. The village is layed out with retail stores on the first floor & residential condos above. Lots of day & night foot traffic."
Hopefully we get another one later today ...that should give us a good shove ....GO OTOW .
That facility has had ownership problems over the last few years....mainly concerning the Condos built around the shopping village partner disputes , peak o' the market prices tumbled etc. I have passed it a few times up there but never visited inside , I have no idea on footcount traffic or WHO is shopping there i.e. tourists - locals etc etc .....but knowing Palm Coast it probably gets some decent foot traffic as there really isnt much up there - alot of offerings - things to do . So its probably as good as your going to get . GO OTOW GO VAL !
PR opinion...like EMZ stated the best thing I liked about todays pr was its HONESTY / transparency ie kiosk space isnt going to happen , taking a long time to get financing etc . If it were a "scame" I doubt they would admit those type of issues - instead they would paint a picture through rose colored glasses. GO OTOW GO VAL !
Emz ...I loaded the boat yesterday as well .....STILL IN long and strong otow. GO OTOW , GO GET SOME REVENUE !
Is it a coincidence Lemon and Tuna mix well ?
I think the Finra reporting is worth it. I know for a fact the SEC takes complaints seriously. I was in a penny years ago and the co got popped due to its own shareholder complaints. Different situation but action was taken.
Ps Lux Communications got a Flagler schools contract for around 4k-5K a month I was told. Supposedly the info is out there on the web to read ...... So we are in good company there.
BigheadTV site now says around 5.5 days until the cable world changes haha.
Greek - everyone -food for thought ...... Why would a "Tuna" expend SOOOO much energy day in and day out, 24-7, to chase a paltry , useless, dying minnow........hmmmmmmm.
By the way I have seen a few lawsuits that asked Ihub for user name info etc ...so they cant hide.
CHUNKY BUYS too......like to see that .....nobody loads a sinking boat ..... GO OTOW .....ps when is our conference call ?
Yes looks like loading up ...... A GREAT SIGN !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Buc Rasko ,,,,worry wart really ? Look at this string of proclamations and tell me how many have actually been finished or brought online ? CC is a great idea ....

The Infamous Rock N Rib pr.
VAL WE WOULD LIKE A SHAREHOLDERS MEETING ASAP PLEASE TO DISCUSS OTOWS STATE OF AFFAIRS . THANKS LET US KNOW WHEN WHERE PLEASE.
Gregg I have a better idea...how about we ask Val for a shareholders meeting asap where we have a sit down and go over accomplishments , challenges and a basically where we are at meeting up in Palm Coast or a half way point in Orlando somehwere .
I have enough invested here that I could promise you I would most definitely attend that meeting. I would also like to review copies of leases , letters of intent etc which I would think wouldnt be a problem to show legitimate / proven shareholders. I dont think we would be asking too much. Anybody else up for that ? GO OTOW .
Greg I know its funny.......Let me first say I have no plans on selling anything near term.....I am STRICTLY (stupidly probably) going with my gut on OTOW and Val at this point PURELY A FAITH GUT PLAY AT THIS POINT and not going with a strictly by the numbers-facts mentality....I am ignoring these depressing facts below .....

Apparently something has been arranged with Lux Communications in Palm Coast
Val appears connected within the industry
Not diluted yet ......
IMO these are all facts ...still foolishly holding on ..GO OTOW , GO O2USA, GO GET KIOSK SPACE IN A SUPERCENTER,GO DIGAME CELLULAR , GO BIGHEADTV, GO HIRE SOME PEOPLE, GO GET SOME OFFICE - WAREHOUSE SPACE , GO GET SOME DAMX REVENUE FLOWING.
I found the story May 26th go back and look...he waited a full 2 weeks to even mention it so I dont think the job fair was a grandstanding type pr at all.,,,,still on the fence . GO OTOW .
I have felt that way all along since last year .....I knew what the authorized share and OS share count was when I came in and wasnt worried about it. I figured when Val returned the shares that was what he was immediately going to do with those shares...breaking off pieces to sell , start buying hardware,entering into contracts etc. Its obvious the guy hasnt been wasting money but I think its time to spend and get Palm Coast up.... Seriously now though I think he should focus on O2USA as that would seem the easiest piece to get a revenue stream coming in with since all the infrastructure - using other companies infrastructure - is already in place according to other peoples DD findings....I really believe we have about 2 months left in this to shix or get off the pot or people start sellling off. I have always tried to be objective about otow...leaning more to the positive side most of my time here .....my opinion has shifted to neutral after BIGHEADTV Friday yet another letdown. VAL SPEND SOME MONEY- LETS ROLL ... GO OTOW
I do not care if he uses some treasury shares to get SOMETHING up finally and running . I say use them. If we keep waiting for funding and going on like this I think we will be in the shixxer anyway within 2 months. JUST MHO.
Greg my sentiments exactly ....I am waiting for some beef ...glossy prs throwing around figures and valuations of this and that in the millions arent cutting it anymore..news like that used to push us up and have a little staying power...that isnt happening lately with these type prs - they have finally lost their shine ....we need some revenue coming in and SOMETHING being completed or brought online finally. GO VAL , GO OTOW , GO BIGHEADTV, GO02USA , GO FIBERNET, GO LUX, GO GET SOME DAMX REVENUE COMING IN.
BigheadTV site now says 8 Days 14 Hours 36 Minutes AND THE BAR RUNS TO 97 % ,,,,,,,,,,, Twitter says "Slight delay keep your pants on " = VERY professional .
RichRIch ...look at my avatar that was the actual otow location I visited during my DD ...evidently they moved out and supposedly are relocating to Palm Coast ..the other address was a ups store that as you know you can rent po boxes at - OTOW would still need to receive its mail though right- so I see nothing wrong with that. We were told Palm Coast is where the company is currently shopping for office , kiosk, warehouse space in a past pr.
I have run across entrepreneurs like that before ....I have been told everyone will lend you money if you have an RMR (reoccuring monthly revenue) based company. Its just holding steady and not giving away the store during the process of funding / financing that is all important to everyone on the business side. But yes sooner or later you have to shix or get off the pot just to get some funding and get the business rolling.
What I am afraid of and have observed is all of the pr pumps have finally seemed to have lost their luster with OTOW. I am afraid of investor flight in droves happening soon here if we do not get some VERIFIABLE meat. BigheadTV didnt help matters this week.
GO OTOW
Weege ...I think I speak for all in that we feel pretty low today ....can you bring the OTOW teams morale up with a tidbit of Bighead news without compromising yourself ? Throw us all a bone here please ;).
Waaa Waaa Waaa Waaaaaaaaaa....I see nothing on the Bighead site happening and we are at 0 0 0 .......oh well I kind of expected that :( ...VERY disappointing.
I think the GoDaddy machines are in AZ .....maybe its Arizona time :( they are launching instead.
Again very disappointing........
Weege come on guy you can do better than that - at least point us to a link where we could put two and two together .....
VERY DISAPPOINTED HERE.
Looks like they need or needed money ...we shall see..... if at 1 oclock they go online then we know they have some funding and a viable -marketable product obviously .....they have been around since 2007 - so funding has been there somewhow for development ....it looks like they tried to get Latin America going first possibly from what I have been able to put together ......T minus 1.5 hrs :).
DD another mention of BIGHEADTV out on the web...again not much there :(.
http://myemail.constantcontact.com/News-from-NewGate-Capital-Partners.html?soid=1103231280038&aid=LQo5XS64uqs
It will just take reshaping peoples way of watching tv ....the elderly I cannot see getting onboard with this at all because it takes a little net know how - electronics saavy,,,,,younger people , internet saavy people will take to it like yourselves. It makes perfect sense to watch what you want when you want...its more efficient than having to park yourself in front of the tv at a specific time, date , night of the week to watch a specific show etc .....GO OTOW
Mine says 0 20 hrs 40 mins ...dont freak ...if they are doing new code drops to the server they will need to take it down in order to do that ......lets see what happens at 1:00 pm tomorrow.....again every hi tech rollout I have done if we announced a date when we were going live we always missed it ...again I hope I am wrong ;) ....LONG AND STRONG OTOW ......
Im with you Scc ........Val hasnt lied to us yet ...this "appears" to be another piece of the puzzle revealed......tomorrow should be interesting ...Chartz Schmartz...Long and strong OTOW ...GO VAL .
Palm Coast - smaller market - kind of ideal -ripe for a rollout , needs services ? Hmmmmmm.
Hows that working for you ? How much are you spending on those two sites a month if I may ask...that is the "movement buzzword" cutting the cord . Its the next big thing I guess .
Agreed ..its weird ...who knows .....to IACOPS post I saw that a few days ago - its with godaddy......I even tried a few things I know to do to the site and couldnt get any more info ...so its a mystery - they sure havent done any decent advertising in anticipation of the release unless in case they consider this a "soft release" which basically means your open for business but actively working the bugs out ....very common to rollout that way . Its still a huge mystery to me however that it took a full 4 years for them to get to this point and have no net prescence out there at all.....unless that is intentional or they have a horrible marketing team ;) .
Strategic move possibly ...for instance if you go online - the shix hits the fan and things dont go well it would be less likely to be covered or picked up by the press.......also I wonder if net traffic is higher or lower on long holiday weekends etc - after business hrs etc ? Also it looks like they are coming online at 1:00 pm ???? A strange time ?
