What follows are more micro-business using the existing technology rather than radical/incremental technology per se. *TimeCapsule* Team believes individuals are sum result of ancestors & prior landscapes - keep stories alive problem is memories fade - lost and forgotten Good - CloudStorage - m

*IwantMy* Reverse search/auction (yet another) as sellers pitch to seekers describing their "needs". Good - amusing Lamma Farming case from china. The claim is select/buy at own convenience, no time-constraints but this is a trait of the reverse auction and harder to see specific unique value

TravelSnoop Essentially a site targeted at independent travellers rather than professional tour-groups (funded payola from tourist traps) interested in more off-beat attractions known only to locals. The premise is surprisingly simple, allow "volunteers" (expected to be semi-retired enthusists

[SiliconBeach] Dunedin Startup Weekend

Finally a technopreneur jam that happened in a city I'm nearby. Whilst I may have felt like a talent scout at a minor league game, definitely worth the drive from near Christchurch despite rain and bad health. There were ~50 attendees, with a pleasantly surpr

> I see HK has no DTA but there is a Bilateral Investment Treaty ... however, starting up a limited liability company in HK requires rigorous checks and the director to be present for the bank account creation, after that can do a virtual office. If you want ease of use then NZ company is appa
