A Winning Business Plan: Bottlecap Porn

There was a terrific, tongue-in-cheek exercise at FOO Camp this weekend called "HalfBaked.com." Here's how this bit of entrepreneur improv works:

- Fill a grid with buzzwords
- Break up into teams
- Pick two words (2 minutes)
- Come up with a product, marketing plan, revenue model, logo, and tagline (5 minutes)
- Pitch to well-known VCs and entrepreneurs (5 minutes)

This was a fun and dynamic way to connect and interact creatively with mad scientists. And with no small modesty, I am thrilled to reveal that Bottlecap Porn won both the VC and popular vote. Yes, the name says it all....here you can see the Bottlecap Porn team pitching away. (Note: Flickr image originally uploaded by TVOJ.)

Just a bit of fun...
