incubaker alfa mode

a while back i mentioned that i was starting to work on incubaker. it has recently mad some serious accomplishments and i wanted to include the peice below marking the true beging of the concept. below is the original email i sent to thianh a couple months ago while i was still in ny.

the OE: original email
i kind of wanna start “incubaker”. its an idea for a think tank organization, half start up company, half consulting company half venture company, half M&A, half investing, half trust. a lot of halves, and i dont have any real skills to contribute to any of the above. but i want it to focus on the team. everyone i meet that has special talent i wanna add them to “the incubaker”. or once large enough people will apply and pay membership to incubaker.benefits of incubaker: people in incubaker will be notified when any other member of the group has an idea. they can get and give feedback, or request or offer for people to join there project team, or ask or give money. all in an organized and documented fashion. people in incubaker invest time or money. they are on the cutting edge of new innovations in any induyry that is member base encompasses. i does not even need to be a new innovation.incubaker could have a project team that is looking to rent out cabins in maine for the summer. if 5 guys wanna get together and pool there money. basically it is a combination of skills, money and time, maximizing everyones greatest contributions. whats ur reaction?

it starts [here is the first entry on the incubaker blog]
incubaker. the birth of an idea that was dreamt of in the worlds greatest lab, or should i say lav. the name really came first as i was in a domain name frenzy. i knew the idea would revolve around a think tank concept. for some time know i wanted to come up with an idea that met the basic human wants, rather than needs.

here are what i like to call the ‘truisms’. in reality none are really facts and most are far from being the comprehensive truth. but they are observations, and i like the word truism. so here they are: 1. people like to be a part of something2. people usually dont like their day job3. people are always looking to make money3. people like risks4. people enjoy having somthing to do5. people work best for goals6. people are tired of being caged by corporates.

two movies that exemplify the truisms: ‘fight club’ and ‘old school’in addition, the entire lucrative concept of religion serves as a good example of what people do as a result of the truisms.

current incubaker update:
