Sorry for missing last week, I was on a business trip.

Project Name: ScreamSheets

Project Description: ScreamSheets is on demand RSS feed newspaper that prints out a one or 2 page paper with the current RSS feeds or Seduku/crossword puzzles of the users choice. It to be free to the consumer, the revenue will be generated by advertising, think site specific banner ads for a geographical location. (Think of the coffee place near a specific train station advertising only in the kiosk at that stop) and be billed on a CPP (Cost per Print) basis.

I posted about this product earlier in another forum and read here http://forums.vcfodder.com/Topic213-13-1.aspx for more information on what people thought.

When I'm not making up new company ideas here I'm arguing engineering at CR4: The Engineers Place for News and Discussion as The Feature Creep.

What about a small modification to this business model. Add a my.screamsheets.com website. Let users customize to their location and interests, similar to ig.google.com. Produce a few features, such as puzzles, article synopses etc. Provide a "print" feature which generates a PDF and prints out a single sheets. Subscribers to this at their office or at home and read on the way home. Sell advertisint to different markets -- you already have subscriber's demographic information.

I like the idea, just not the kiosk part of this model.
