The Wall of Memories
An open invitation to friends who would like to help me build this site. (File under: Half-bakery.)The basic problem that I'm trying to solve is one that a lot of people have. Namely, they don't keep a diary. And even if they did, it would only be a record of ideas. This site would help people map their life's experiences and then to relate those experiences to others. I call it "The Wall of Memories" because it's where one would go to continually create the graffiti that is their life’s experiences continuously adding photos, stories, and people to their complex and utterly unique path through life.
I have no idea how you could make money off of this site. But I'm thinking you could simply sell subscriptions. I would gladly pay $50/year for a place that helped me organize and share my life's experiences with others. As more people join, the more the services has value. The last thing the world needs is another social networking site, so this site would benefit from partnering with, instead of duplicating, the efforts of another social networking site.
What do you think? You up for the challenge? I have a lot on my plate now, but I'd put in the extra hours at night and on the weekends to get it off the ground. I can even run around raising money if I had a good management team aboard. If resources are an issue, that is.

I've story boarded the concept on my dry erase boards and then photographed them and then added comments to them in my flickr set.
