thanks

I think we finished text chatting here.

I cannot keep up replying to everyone beleaguering me here

Fortunately their worries are mostly because I do not provide enough info - sorry - my post's intent was just to get people TO COME SEE and then ask me many pointed and serious questions.

Well, good luck then. I suppose you are pitching to unemployed people who may have the time (but possibly not petrol). It will be interesting to know how many people attend your event with no idea of what's involved. I certainly hope, though, that they are not going to get a sales pitch for some or other MSM scheme and/or this isn't some kind of attempt to sell stuff. But as this demonstrates, in the absence of any information people can be forgiven for being skeptical.

Alwyn, I don't mean to put a damper on your enthusiasm, but firstly, you sound a bit demented, and secondly, any developer that's been around a while has been exposed to so many "great ideas" that I doubt you will find any that are going to drive out to Hartbeesport on your say so. .

Hi garp

Quite frankly I have been so alone ( BUT not lonely ) for many years; I really might actually be somewhat SLIGHTLY !!!!!!!! demented - my enthusiasm is out of touch with world realities.

I am taking a typing break - will reply to you further a bit later - I spend nearly 5 hours now reading and replying here already.

I think I only ever mentioned the 30k will be for full time people working on the projects.

I do not think I implied the apis will enable 30k; sorry

If people are not intrigued enough based on my post with me making some VERY !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

bold ( sorry - but VAGUE ) claims then I cannot entice them more to come listen.

Details will be revealed on speech day - if you cannot team up with 3 other interested IT people and spend R 25 each on petrol; then I guess what I want to share FOR FREE is too expensive for you :-(

Sales talk? Door to door salesmen required?

If you are unwilling to post your idea then at least post your linkedin profile so people know you are real.

Also if we get various threads about people dissapearing on this thread we at least point the relatives to your direction. :D

Hi all

I am worried

500+ views in 5 hours

thanks

but zero emails in inbox ; no one wants to come listen.

- - -

What then ?

I am therefore making myself available anywhere in Gauteng - someone will unfortunately come fetch me ...

and I will give the speech in an intimidating work and office environment.

I still need emails in inbox to get idea of number of people that will attend.

I want to give speech in a public place where many independent people can freely attend .... I do not want to give this speech ... and discussions .... at one company ... NOT for those one company only - all must be able to attend.

Video blog your idea on youtube and make it invite only.
The people can pm or email you to get the link and you get to see how many are interested.

Internet full of scams, your current thing seems very unrealistic.

btw, I live pretty close to harties but have a full schedule, too full for a sales spiel/timeshare/pyramid.
Lack of info = above.

No door to door sales.

the 30k is for perm. people doing IT work at their desks - work we all love.

The apis will expose the full spectrum of many categories of must know summary and details that ALL websites need for their success. People will realize facts, insights and opportunities in those stats - they will not earn money from the apis directly.

+1

Heck, if you really have to, make them send an NDA or something. Athough, just remember it's useless for anything that is not truly proprietary or original.

I might be superadvanced japanese AI pretending to be an ugly human : that Alwyn Botha biped to be exact.

Do you really ????? think I cannot fake a link..bla profile in a picosecond.

A picosecond is an SI unit of time equal to 10−12 or 1/1,000,000,000,000 of a second. That is one trillionth, or one millionth of one millionth of a second, or 0.000 000 000 001 seconds.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Picosecond

= = = = = =

Relook at your post ... my power is infinite .... I already effortlessly evapoed some of your text - see below - and be scared - very scared.

dissapearing

Remember Alwyn took 2.5 hours compiling his convincing opening speech.
He just said "reading" and "replying" for 5 hours. He didn't include composing his original post.

Also read his original post. You must admit by the way it's written it sounds like he has just thought of the idea and is so excited he has to share it.

But ..... in the same post he already has event dates and 50 chairs ready. How would he have all those things ready if he just thought of the idea, Mr Smarty pants?

Also what is his only condition in his original post? His only condition he says is that you don't post the details of the event on facebook or your will be BANNED from the event. What could possibly be the reason for this stipulation?

If you time travel from the past to the future to write on facebook about the event you could quite possible meet your past self at the very same event. And the consequences of this .... just imagine.

He must have read he's own post? :confused: Obviously more than once. I agree with you. Smelling something fishy and a rat already.
