Who cares about a group of people with an “idea”?
By: admin
Apparently Y Combinator does.
I’m not sure where the name came from but it is a well-known venture investor meaning it provides funds to a startup company. Basically any group that has an idea they want to make into reality needs funding and Y Combinator will provide just that. It has a sort of contest for funding where they judge who has the best idea and has the highest chance of success. Who knows, they might stumble upon the next youtube or google so if you are a startup-er go check it out!
That might be the goal for us at CanTheWorldHearMe to try to reach to. Despite only being in high school, we have relatively good experience in the business and technology world. We don’t want to just wait and have our idea taken or miss our opportunity. Utilizing web 2.0, a real startup company is possible at any minute. The only problem is we still need an idea…

Develop a news collection site that helps journalists break original stories. DOnt just report the news that has already been written, help the future news become written.
Create a tool for a news organization that allows for people to send in tips anonymously for the purpose of giving journalists leads.
That would be useful.

That is a very creative idea there Nicholas. Most websites for news like Digg collects all the existing articles but there should also be a way to find leads for journalists of all types. Thanks for the idea, your thoughts are much appreciated.
