I know some of you miss the crazy markets 90s as much as I do, but after the Google/YouTube purchase this week, the pundits are talking about the revivial of the tech bubble. I'm extremely skeptical (nobody's recently sent M a job offer with a huge gift basket, a ridiculous offer of stock options, an inhouse masseur and a shitty salary) but if it does come back, I've got a site plan for you.
TWICE in the last week I've heard some snippet of instrumental music that I thought was lovely and on autopilot turned to Google to find it, only to realize that I had no lyrics. *blinks* WhatI need the web needs is a place where users can store little audiosnippets of them singing or humming a few bars of that pesky earworm that refuses to be exorcised. Other users can go in to identify those snippets and they get site credit (to be used for some mysterious purpose - expect that in the real business plan) and bragging rights.
Take it, implement it, I won't demand a cut of the royalties (because let's be real, you'll probably go the way of DrKoop.com and all the rest of the startups), but I DO want to know what that lovely thing that sounded like a horn concerto was.
I need it. Go, web - make your magic!
