Comments1 Melih New Facebook I would not use facebook to directly contact with close friends, not attracted.

Melih CultureLog Sounds like a good idea and it can be stronger if it can be integrated with other relevant social platforms such as IMDB or Amazon. Melih AdviseMe It can be an add-on to facebook rather than a private web site and it is not strong business idea. Melih Auto Park Good idea, it requires good connections with shopping mall, government and GSM operators.

2 Inez New Facebook People are using facebook to seem cool, to show themselves but it seems effective, making plans with a small group of people or connecting them. Inez CultureLog It can better with a social networking and sharing information.Inez AdviseMe It looks like very funny and good because people just can enter to the web site for fun, to see different answers.Inez Auto Park I would definitely use it, especially in crowded areas.

3 Sedef New Facebook It would not be suitable for a limited number of users because most of the facebook users care about showing themselves.Sedef CultureLog As far as I remeber, there are some personal spaces like this. People can so this in facebook. I would not use it.Sedef OptimumFun In smart phone, it can connect with weather forecast, traffic and availability of places in theaters, movies, restaurants and give you some suggestions. Sedef Auto Park I would use it, it should a mobile application as well but I always tend to think that I will somehow find a place to park.

4 Yeliz New Facebook Facebook's success was "everybody has lots of friends". This will probably not be attractive to facebook users. Yeliz CultureLog It is very similar to Pinterest. It may be hard to persuade people to use it. Yeliz AdviseMe I liked it. Decision tree should be very well designed and it should contain as much selections as possible. Yeliz OptimumFun It is logical for Istanbul and other big cities if you do not want to lose time in traffic and for other things.Yeliz Auto Park It is a very good idea but it is hard to make it happen.

5 Serkan CultureLog Dropbox and onenote has similar features. The only advantage is having it online. Serkan OptimumFun It is an integrated solution which combines many data and applications.Serkan Auto Park It cannot work online. As far as I know, Ispark is planning to make the same.

6 Fikri New Facebook Facebook is for our egos, so, having limited number of people would not be attactive to most of the users.Fikri CultureLog not a bad idea. It should be very user friendly so that I can do it from my computer, not using a computer or notebook.Fikri AdviseMe It will be popular for a certain amount of time and fade out. Fikri OptimumFun There should be additional features such as online reservation, seeing the details of the movie. Fikri Auto Park It may not work in Istanbul traffic because all of the available park spaces can be filled very fastly.

7 Mehmet CultureLog I think it is not an original idea that can add value or create a difference.Mehmet OptimumFun If you can create events for your friends, it can even be better. Mehmet Auto Park I will probably not use it because the first thing I would consider will not be available parks but amount of traffic.

8 Cem CultureLog I did not sound original to me because there are many competitors.Cem OptimumFun It is a good idea only if the engineering behind it works very well. Cem Auto Park I would definitely use it because it is very hard to find available parking places in the city.

9 Seçkin CultureLog I will probably not use it because I am also not using facebook. Seçkin OptimumFun I will not use it but I think it can be functional for many people. Seçkin Auto Park very good idea. How you will feed the data, how you will update it, operation can be costly.

10 Gulriz Abla CultureLog I will probably not use it but new generation can use it. It should be very user friendly so that it can be used by many people.Gulriz Abla OptimumFun It is an amazing idea. You should select your mode and your time interval or whether you would like to be social or not. I will probably use it.Gulriz Abla Auto Park It may not be user friendly, especially when you are mobile and driving your car.

Comments1 Melih New Facebook I can directly contact with close friends, I do not need any social networking for this. It should be very big so that it can become a profitable business.

Melih CultureLog Sounds like a good idea. It can be stronger if it can be integrated with other relevant social platforms such as IMDB or Amazon. It requires an ultimate user experience. (desktop, notebook, mobile phone, pads etc). Privacy and security are extremely critical. Data should be easily publishable if user wants such as blogging, twitting etc.Melih AdviseMe It can be an add-on to facebook rather than a private web site. It is not strong business idea. This alghorithm should be localized so that it can work all around the world. Melih Auto Park Good idea, it requires good connections with shopping mall, government and GSM operators. It is probable that someone is already working on this idea.

2 Inez New Facebook people are using facebook to seem cool, to show themselves. İt seems effective, making plans with a small group of people or connecting them. Some people are not using facebook just because of this reason. Eg people do not like to be tagged without permission. I found it similar to msn, I could use it.Inez CultureLog it can better with a social networking. People generally ask themselves: which book should I read, which movie should I watch. It can be a good sharing platform. I would not use it only for keeping my history, I would like to use it for taking advises. It can be combined with the first idea.Inez AdviseMe It looks like very funny and good. People just can enter to the web site for fun, to see different answers. It can contain many funny asnwers. I would use it for fun but not for taking real advices.Inez Auto Park Auto park is a very big problem. It should not be only for shopping malls, it should be for streets and it should show where is the closest free parking slot. I would definitely use it, especially in crowded areas.

3 Sedef New Facebook facebook is very popular, they do not care about the image of the facebook. İt would be suitable for a limited number of users because most of the facebook users care about showing themselves. Most of the people wants connected social networking such as linking instagram, twitter etc to facebook. you can also create privacy in facebook. I would not use it.Sedef CultureLog As far as I remeber, there are some personal spaces like this. People can so this in facebook. I would not use it.Sedef AdviseMe It can be fun, it should have an iphone application. In smart phone, it can connect with weather forecast, traffic and availability of places in theaters, movies, restaurants and give you some suggestions. People tend to use it for a few times and get bored. It should be a dynamic environment, not a static one. Sedef Auto Park I would use it, it should a mobile application as well. Can shopping malls accept to share this information? I always tend to think that I will somehow find a place to park. It is very dynamic, it can change a lot. It can have a vale service. If I would like to go a specific mall, I would definitely find a way to go there.

4 Yeliz New Facebook Facebook's success was "everybody has lots of friends". This will probably not be attractive to facebook users. The potential users that you mention will probably add their real friends to facebook, noone else.Yeliz CultureLog It is very similar to Pinterest. It may be hard to persuade people to use it. In terms of sharing common interests, it is good but it should differentiate itself from similar sites.Yeliz AdviseMe I liked it. Decision tree should be very well designed and it should contain as much selections as possible. How you will enable repetition of the visits? If it can be a forum in the site, repetition may increase.Yeliz OptimumFun It is logical for Istanbul and other big cities if you do not want to lose time in traffic and for other things. Just to spend your time in an optimum way. It should be showing price discounts as well. It should be asking the end user about their interests at the beginning of the application in a funny way. It will be like users are talking about themselves.Yeliz Auto Park It is a very good idea .It is hard to make it happen. You should have a certain amount of capital. You should persuade shopping malls, government and other parties to make it happen.

5 Serkan CultureLog Dropbox and onenote has similar features. The only advantage is having it online. It can used with a great user interface and user-friendly. It should also be available in different operating system.Serkan OptimumFun It is a very good idea. It should be a very simple application. It is an integrated solution which combines many data and applications.Serkan Auto Park It cannot work online. As far as I know, Ispark is planning to make the same. Shopping malls would not share this information. The data is very dynamic, it will not be beneficial. Cost part can be used offline.

6 Fikri New Facebook Facebook is for our egos, so, having limited number of people would not be attactive to most of the users. In terms of functionality, you can make necessary changes in facebook to share whatever you like.Fikri CultureLog not a bad idea. It should be very user friendly so that I can do it from my computer, not using a computer or notebook. I can use it if it can be a travel notebook. It will not be attractive otherwise. It can be formatted according to the locations.Fikri AdviseMe Creating contex is very hard. It will be probably repetitive. It should be a dynamic environment. It will be popular for a certain amount of time and fade out. Fikri OptimumFun It may work. It is not satisfying a very big need. It is possible that I can use it. There should be additional features such as online reservation, seeing the details of the movie. Context should be updated regularly.Fikri Auto Park It may not work in Istanbul traffic. All of the available park spaces can be filled very fastly. There is not much problem in shopping malls in terms of finding an available place. Very costly operation.

How you will create loyalty and repetiton?Mehmet Auto Park I will probably not use it. The first thing I would consider will not be available parks but amount of traffic. I will probably not trust on this because once I arrive there, it can be already filled.

8 Cem CultureLog I did not sound original to me because there are many competitors. It will be used only if it had a great interface and it was very popular.Cem OptimumFun It is a good idea only if the engineering behind it works very well. Like foursquare and facebook, it should become very popular so that you can earn money from it.Cem Auto Park I would definitely use it because it is very hard to find available parking places in the city. I would prefer to pay a premium for this but not much.

9 Seçkin CultureLog I will probably not use it because I am also not using facebook. Current systems are enabling this, I am not sure it will be effective. Not a bad idea. You can know where are you, which books you read, which movies you watched. Using your place, you can put your photos, put there with all your memories, notes, cooking recipes, meeting notes.Seçkin OptimumFun I will not use it but I think it can be functional for many people. It should also contain reviews about movies.Seçkin Auto Park very good idea. How you will feed the data, how you will update it, operation can be costly. Many people are using streets instead of parking areas

"Anastasia has developed manufacturing relationships that allow the company to produce low quantities of fashionable staplers and generate 30% gross margins, and the company has secured eight of the top ten fashion designers to release a stapler line."

"The company has already sold 10,000 fashionable staplers through an online storefront and closed a distribution deal with Staplers-R-Us."

"Anastasia is looking to raise $1 MM on a $3.5 MM pre-money valuation to have ten of the top fifteen national retailers carry the fashionable staplers."

Founders that are comfortable sharing their idea should take every opportunity to pitch their idea to their Working Group and, when ready, to investors in the Investor Session. Every strong pitch must concisely answer five things:

"Anastasia has developed manufacturing relationships that allow the company to produce low quantities of fashionable staplers and generate 30% gross margins, and the company has secured eight of the top ten fashion designers to release a stapler line."
