fbFund

A couple of weeks ago, a user requested a Facebook interface. Michael started looking into creating a Facebook Application and 7 days ago he discovered the fbFund Developer Competition. The fbFund is a competition by Facebook to encourage the creation of "innovative and engaging applications on Facebook Platform." So the countdown has begun...

The fbFund is extra motivation to create the Facebook Application but it does require more work. I think we can win this competition if we can get all of the pieces together and ready by the August 29th deadline. Michael is creating the working prototype and screenshots. I am writing our business plan summary/application, business model and team resume. The kicker will be the 2-3 minute video elevator pitch. Who should be in front of the camera? How can we create an interesting video that will capture the fbFund committee's attention? We have had to make some difficult decisions regarding the direction of our business plan and the look of our interface. We are a great team because we see things in very different ways and complement each other. It is fun to work side-by-side on all aspects of the fbFund application.

Our to do list is enormous so the earliest that either of us has gone to bed is 2am. Most nights I am up until about 4am. Crazy, eh? Coffee has become my best friend. I am not a coffee drinker so, a big mug of mocha at 8pm keeps me going and going! It is an exciting time here at the Kountr headquarters!
