Ideas We are Looking For - Part Six

Leverage Platforms, with a Great Value Proposition.

The Web, no matter what you call it, is a platform. It levels the playing field and gives you a market without bounds. The Web, The Appstore, Mobile Phones (Smartphones) all have one thing in common, they are platforms.

If you are building services for consumers, it better ride on Platforms. It helps to bring down the two great costs of running a business - cost of acquisition and cost of delivery of the service down.

We are looking for Games, and Services for Consumers (read Entertainment) that ride the platform wave. Gamification is a big factor of how most apps are being built these days. Anything from Social networking, to eCommerce, to Education leverages that.

There is a lot of scope in really leveraging the global marketplace with apps that deploy the right set of wants and game dynamics. We've seen a few very interesting twists in this combination for sure. What are you upto?
