First question. Is this not just basically the whole forum merged into one tiny area?

and 2) If these investors were to commit to your idea, would you be willing to work with others on the main logo? I like the name of the paper but it could do with something like a symbol or a design as well as the text you've given.

1. I'd like to feature Z and Firewires day out, it seems a fun story that would be fun to cover and to read about

2. The logo is a working logo, we will happily work with the investors to comeup with a logo that everyone is happy with

I wouldn't say that at all, I'd say it's more unique, we have blogs, we have features such as the agony aunt, horoscopes and other columns that you don't see in the other areas of TiBB

Who is editing this and decides what's going in and what's out?

Can't we find all this stuff on the forum already?

I'm editing, I have 4 years of online journalism behind me, which I think makes me perfect for the job

I've just answered that for Ben, but I'd strongly disagree with that point

how will you ensure people remain committed to writing this stuff?

Obviously we can never guarantee what will happen, but if this takes off and people enjoy it, it will give everyone a bit of a boost

It's quite a warm idea but I think that this is quite tounge in cheek. Just imagine what people would submit to the agony aunt column, the effects could be quite disasterous! You could of improved the design; But i do not mind too much about that as you can team up with people to make it better.

We aim to provide some fun rather than serious issues.

Is it going to have any actual news in it? Or it is all quite lighthearted?

We will have news, we will have a lot of light hearted stuff as it makes people want to read it

These people you mention that will help you run it why have you chosen them, for example Jack F and horoscopes, Lostalex and news, Kazanne and blogs. Do you not feel there are more suitable candidates for these roles on TiBB?

They were all picked by me and Nessa on who we thought was fit for the job, they were then asked and had to agree before we picked the names.

If you look at the pitch we've explained why people are perfect for it

Theyre may be better candidates, but we feel we've got a brilliant team without going for advisors, investors etc

Thank you for your answers.

Why is this better than reading threads? Is there a true need for it when you can find the things already on-site? Good job though, I admire your ideas, but I think it could be poorly executed.

Because it's convenient and all in one place.
