Startup Idea #5: Ad-supported blogs for comics

Updated 7 March 2008

Discarded the previous idea on product placement in comics (too small a market and leverages no edge competencies)

To reinvent the comic value chain, it is better to engineer it using markets, networks or communities. Similar to RCRDLBL, an ad-supported network can be created to support blogs of comic creators. With such a network in place, we can do some pretty cool things like:

i) smart aggregator i.e aggregates content and filters it to drive content novelty to users
ii) reverse syndicate i.e. allow aggregated content to be syndicated out to individual blogs
iii) create a new form of mediation/sociality that builds on micro comics?
