#473Proposal: I have the cash and reasonable business/tech experience, but not the bandwidth to run a "full-time side project" ( does that term make sense to anyone other than me? ). Would consider putting up capital to fund purchase and an initial operating budget if a willing and capable partner presents himself or herself to operate the site. I would take a "board of directors" - type role ( periodic advice and oversi…

#474Greaterskies, http://greaterskies.com - sells posters of the sky, thousands of stars and all the planets as seen from a place and at a time. Selling PDF ($24) and printout. Seems to be getting popular as a wedding present, also for birthdays. Common lisp backend computing the posters, Python and Javascript for the rest. Very nice conversion rate, but I haven't found the time to work on improving the number of visits.
got a ballpark amount you'd sell for?

#476https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.RobbinsDev... A very basic android game (no ads or purchases inside it) with about 400 downloads per day, 15k current installs. I know there's not much monetization potential but it could drive steady traffic somewhere. You could totally redo it and get some automatic ranking in the store. I would use the money to pay for college which is coming up in about 18 months.
Could you post your contact info please?

#477http://doodlec.am/ I wish I had time to build it, but I don't. It's a simple idea, where we had moderately good execution and big ideas for the future. Future plans were to expand to Doodle Packs, with themed artwork (also for sale, perhaps). The image detection code (doodle placement) was pretty hacky but functional. The app has about 10,000 downloads, maybe 1,000 active (close to 0 marketing). I envisioned updating…

#478http://www.moredrunk.com - Lists alcohol from different bars and grocery stores in order of Alcohol Content/Price. Haven't touched it in over a year and the parser needs an update. Not a lot of traffic currently but perhaps has a high potential.

#480The Big Eat http://www.thebigeat.com Menu and takeaway listings (mainly in the UK). Makes around $6,000 per year of Adsense. It's been fairly untouched since I started it in 2006. Has good pagerank for a lot of takeaway names. Costs are a Digital Ocean Droplet @ $5 a month = $60 per year.
I worked on this concept for a school project [1] for the US market and I like the simplicity a lot. Are businesses pretty responsive in claiming their takeaways? [1] http://imgur.com/GhLBvb4
