Startup Videos Review: note sharing tool
Review of Startup Videos Opportunity: (no name as of yet) code named: Note Sharing by Allen Stern.
Allen's review: Nick Reese submitted a video for review but never names his company because they are just in the infancy stage before launch. The idea is that they will create a note sharing system for college students. Nick begins by explaining that students take pages of notes on their laptops today and those notes could easily be shared between students in the same and future semesters. He explains that each note upload gets you one download credit and that the content will be categorized by school and will only be accessible by students with a college email address.
I like the idea a lot having just finished my MBA in 2005. When you miss a class, knowing there is a note repository to go to would be great. Also, helping future students is also a good thing. My concerns would be around students using this resource instead of going to class, bad quality notes and students making content up to either be malicious or to get download note credits.
I hope to hear more about this idea from Nick as they move into a beta stage.
Below is the submitted video pitch:
Sounds like an interesting pitch… but not a single website or contact information for people like me who are interested in connecting with Nick .
Nick if you see this, can you email me.. I’m interested in finding out if a potential partnership can be made.
Thanks
