StoryCode on Dragon's Den

One thing I will write quickl;y about is to let you know that one of the businesses I am involved in, StoryCode.com, was featured on Dragon's den last week. Here is the video clip which somebody kindly put on YouTube.

Under Capitalism, basic concepts such as the useful one behind StoryCode and BlogCode - that of sharing information between people with a common interest - cannot be allowed, else the Capitalists wouldn't be able to extort money from anyone for selling such a 'value added' 'service'.

Luckily, thanks in no-small part to the Internet, the Capitalists are on the way out, as evinced by the likes of Universal Music resorting to giving music away free in the hope that they might recoup their costs through advertising - yet another product of Capitalism that no-one much cares for.

Everything wants to be free

I was disappointed at how the idea was decimated by the panel. I really like StoryCode (and BlogCode) and plan to use them more often. Thanks to your blog, I'm now using the widgets on mine.

The storycode.com website is offline so I guess it never came to anything.

Amazon does 9/10 of online book sales, so if this system only targets 10% of the available market (and that's being generous as that will be split by dozens of vendors) its probably its not online.

Secondly the guy was arrogant and if he's a google search consultant and has no money then he can't be very successful one at that.
