Durham Smoffice application

Thanks to Alert Community Member Hilmar Lapp, we found out about a contest for startups to win the World’s Smallest Office (smoffice, get it?): basically a nook in a coffee shop. Rather more enticingly, it also comes with six months of a condo in downtown Durham, which has a growing startup scene.

Jason lives and goes to school near Durham, and plus we like the kind of wacky thinking that comes up with this sort of contest so we applied.  Here’s the one-minute smoffice video, in which I sell TI from inside a boiler room, dryer, car trunk, and my fridge. 

Here’s the one-page business plan we submitted—bear in mind that in keeping with our agile approach, this is a business plan, but not the business plan. It’s certain to change, maybe quite radially, as we continue to adapt in response to user feedback and our own evolving ideas.

We find out on the 13th. Feel free to vote up our video on the smoffice Facebook page if you’re into that sort of thing.
