Selling a website and an idea, or looking for investors.
3 points by m_marker 5441 days ago
I have started to develop a website and I'm actually broke. I can't continue development but the concept and what I have so far is good. I need funding, either to buy the whole idea and the website I have built so far or support with funds. Thanks.

The idea is to taking the boredom out of social bookmarking by segmenting content into 3 categories(text, video, images).The platform has a back-end that interfaces with a website and mobile app. Let men know if anyone is interested. I'm willing to sell the idea and what I have so far, as well as even work for you.
Sounds rather like Digg plus a mobile app. That said, if you think it'll be the next Reddit, go with it! Just do lots of research and make sure someone hasn't failed previously with the same idea - no point wasting your energies if it's already been proven not to work :)
It kinda sounds like Reddit and Digg but the social model is very different and it also focuses on privacy and user engagement.
If you think the idea is worth pursuing, did you try to borrow some money from a credit card or home equity loan? I know it's very risky, because you may end up hurting yourself if things dont work out, but if you genuinely believe there is a profitable business model this is the easiest approach
Providing a little more detail would help your cause.
Yeah tried that. But didn't work. If anyone is interested you can send me an email to talk offline.
