there are currently hundreds of start-ups in the silicon valley and more looking for angel investors. sites like revision3.com is only months old but already making $10k per episode, with 220k viewers per show. a tea company in the east coast wanted to revision3 to plug their product in exchange for 20% of sales. and in one month they made over 100k in sales thanks to revision3.com (revision3.com is owned by the founder of digg.com)


dogster.com got a disney sponsorship and made $1.1 profit in 2006. now you have joost.com by the same guys who built skype.com that sold to ebay for $2.4 billion. there's loopt.com, adify.com admob.com and so forth. even if they say, it's a bubble, your chances of making money are better than winning the lottery. VCs are so careful nowadays that they rarely fund concepts. first they want sites with traction (w/ 10's of thousands of users) before shelling out a penny.

so how do these sites get thousands of paid members in just a few months? even if I tell you, nobody here would understand or give a crap. lol

btw, world of warcraft makes 1.2 billion a month from subscription. there are a dozen of similar companies looking for angel investors from $5k - $10k. this market is up for grabs.
