Thank you Rhys; what business are you

From what I know about members here we have an all-in-all impressive bunch. I think if you follow along with the IDNF threads long enough you learn can't help but learn a bit about everyone over time.

There is no doubt a few dozen expert domainers here, and some extremely knowledable IT experts, computer systems sales managers, stock brokers, statisticians, and then a hodge podge of the rest of us (self included).

Taking sum of all the skills that the members here possess, it's a pretty formidable mix of talent. The idea to explore any strategic alliances, or lay some groundwork towards the development end of idns might be a good one to explore for those that are interested.

I am for a collaboration, I am doubtful whether or not personal contact is required to build trust and to concentrate the minds on a single combined effort but I do feel that if we had more direct contact a business initiative would have been started months ago.
Let's just say the main thing standing in the way of starting this business venture is eye contact.

Obviously we dó have people here with a melee of competencies, whether that blendedness amounts to completeness is very much the question but as I see it the level of thought of the people here should be more than sufficient to build an online business which has the potential of being successful, it becoming successful or not depends on the effort put in (and the capital allocated to marketing).

Investing a safe amount of money in potentially emerging markets is wise, investing a large amount of money in a new business with people you vaguely know, that's bold or foolish, depending on the outcome.

Remember, effort ís money.
