The Venice Project by Kazaa and Skype Creaators Niklas Zennstrom and Janus Friis
A direct lift from PaidContent.org on July 24. I really can’t add any insights, but it seems to be important. The best judge of future entrepreneurial success is past entrepreneurial success.
Skype-Kazaa Founders Working On Online Video Distribution Project [by Rafat]
Maybe they should start by talking to Masayoshi Son, who has his own plans of changing the world with TV distribution…now Niklas Zennstrom and Janus Friis, the entrepreneurs who created the pioneering application Kazaa and Skype, are working to develop software for distributing TV shows and other videos online, reports BusinessWeek. The project is called “The Venice Project“…the two have assembled teams of software developers in about a half-dozen cities around the world, including New York, London, and Venice.
The teams are currently in negotiations with TV networks, although it’s not clear whether any agreements have been reached. A formal announcement of the new venture could come as early as this fall. Not clear: both entrepreneurs are still working at Ebay, and whether eBay will put some money in or use the services of the new project. It is expected Niklas will put in some of his own money (after all, he has tons now, with Skype’s sale to eBay).
Please Have Mr. Janus Friis and Mr. Niklas Zennstrom

Meeting that someone special just got easier and safer too. Are you tired of the nightclub (bar scene), blind dates and all the less than truthful people that you have met on the Internet dating sites? There is an over whelming desire in all of us to seek out another human being since we all have a very strong biological necessity to meet people. “Let’s Meet” (LM) is the most innovative way to meet the most amount people in the shortest of time with creditability. LM’s innovative design is to showcase people in the public domain (TV), so there is a secure and safer environment with thoroughly screened members. The LM unique approach to safer dating venue is now going to be more enjoyable with a new fresh feeling of a better atmosphere with the person you’re spending time with. This is the first time in the dating evolution that women will have more fun, feel more relaxed and will be able to enjoy their dates because LM has taken the fear factor out of dating men. LM is the first and only safety driven informative concept exemplifying a presentation like this anywhere in the world. LM’s strategy is to use the enormous TV platform reaching the masses to capture the tremendous viewing audience. That’s why Match .Com, Harmony .Com spend so much money on TV advertising. Since LM’s primary arena is on TV we impart a significant unparalleled winning edge. People visiting LM will come through word of mouth or just by default when they scan their remote between station breaks or commercials. We will target radio and TV advertising to the conscientious parents and single women of the world. All parents want their children to be safe regardless of age! Women won’t hesitate to join LM because of all the many safety factors that are built in.
LM members will have a professional beauty make-over and have professional portraits taken, men wearing a black tuxedo, for the play boy look, bare chest and just a black bow tie. The women will be wearing a white or off white wedding dress, head piece, and will beholding a rose or flower bouquet like a bride on her wedding day, or the play girl look, bare from the cleavage up (in good taste) wearing a white bow tie. All LM members’ portraits are shown on a split screen, men on one side, and women on the other side. We can show-case as many as one thousand members per hour. Each person will have a contact #, first name, month (sign), height, and s/n (smoker/none smoker). While you are watching the membership being showcased you will hear romantic instrumental music like the Theme from Love Story, A Summer Place, Moon River, Autumn Leaves, Misty, Moon Glow and Days of Wine and Roses. The host will explain the show’s concept during the intermission. It’s no nonsense, no game, and no entertainment approach to finding that special someone you are just physically attracted to or maybe an old friend that you haven’t seen for many years.
On the Internet imposters will be whom ever they want you to think they are using aliases. LM’s guide lines for joining are far different than that of internet dating sites. We don’t just list people like a phone book directory or 900 personal ads and put client’s names on just any snapshots / pictures.
All members are told that we employ single female police officers and that we give free membership to all single law enforcement worldwide. We request all women to call the free out-tracking date log for their own safety. Every woman will be given a special digital cell phone to call her date log which will record the time she leaves her home.
Women are required to give the full itinerary of the date along with the contact # and name of the man she is meeting and the scheduled time she should be home. The special locater cell phones use a digital code transmitter with priority Cat Tracking Software that only the FBI and state police have.
The phone will send a digital radio signal and use GPS tracking to cell towers to locate the exact location of a woman when she hasn’t reported back from a date on time.
The safety persona is of paramount importance at LM
Let’s meet will acquire and utilize all available modern technology like the biometrics retina eye scan, hair, blood and oral mouth swab for DNA. LM will chart all beauty, birthmarks, scars and tattoos. Finger prints will be mapped and checked against the local police and all FBI files as well as out standing or past warrants arrests and DUI’s or even too many points on driving record. No one can join LM unless they have a spotless background record.
“CAN YOU PUT A PRICE ON ONE’S SAFETY”?
Women who choose the web for dating men are going to kiss many frogs and waste a lot of time. Unknowingly they are setting themselves up for a high risk situation of being a date rape victim or even worse getting themselves killed. With all the high risks and scars LET’S MEET is a real value and people will pay for a good value. Let’s Meet is a real use-value product compared to all the internet dating sites and other dating services that do nothing more than list people just like the cheap newspaper personal ads did. That’s our so called competition that people are paying for anyway. It is an impossible task for any of the dating .coms to beat us at our own game when they choose Cyber-space.
1. Fact: Dating .Coms biggest money maker on the Internet besides pornography
2. Fact: MSN browser gets 8.6 to 8.7 million hits a day for the word (dates)
3. Fact: Match .Com has well over 18 million members strong and claims that for the month of
January they were signing over sixty thousand new people a day.
We also are showcasing the aspiring artist’s (want-a-b’s) WB. The WB will have a different dress code, contact #, first name, and the career they are seeking. All LM members will enjoy the benefits of the high profile exposure to all the talent agencies, casting directors and modeling agencies since we are going to simulcast TV on to the worldwide web. LM is focused on new innovative inroads in marketing LM members like no other agency.
