"The event, which started about six weeks ago in the Los Angeles and Philadelphia regions, is an offshoot of Ideablob.com, a Web site that allows aspiring entrepreneurs to post their ideas for a chance to win a monthly $10,000 prize."<p>Fucking aye! that's way better than you could get from any seed fun operation for N&#60;=2 founders.<p>"Sponsored by Advanta Bank in Philadelphia, the site has given out about $150,000 in prizes over the past 17 months. Approximately 80 percent of the winning business ideas have related to socially-conscious ideas."<p>Yeeeeeeep! sounds like a GOOD thing.<p>P.S. Anyone in the D.C. area who wants to hear me out, I will buy you a cup of coffee :-)
