Internet start-up offers two $50,000 prizes for Beta Testers:
It was an Idea who's time had come. I was so impressed with our first Bloblive we attended in Los Angeles.

But let me back up: I should start by giving you a little back round on myself: My name is Israel Rothman: I am a serial Entrepreneur, who has made, then lost over $8000,000.00 in the last ten years; but this is not about me, it is about the birth of the Internet, the development of a good idea, and about the beginning of a new era in human history:
It has been my honor to be part of this story, to lose everything twice in that time, and to be able to start all over again so soon.
This story is about cyberspace, and the Internet, and the future of the human race: it is about the technological changes that are changing the world completely, and so quickly that almost nobody sees where it is going, yet we all must try to jump in before it passes us by.
But more than anything else, this is ta story about change: the story of the evolution of an inspiration into a thought, then an idea into a reality, and then a website, and then a business, and then a convention. It is about users, and content, and websites, and humans, and machines. It is about collaboration, in person, remotely, and from across the world. This is the true story of Ideapals.org, and Moviepals.org, and many companies with many names. This is our story, and your story, and the story of what is to come: and, only because I am alive during this time too with you, parts of it are also my story.
I hope you enjoy this story, that you are inspired by the possibilities that have never existed before: I hope you participate, and innovate, and grow with us as you read it. But most of all I hope that it makes you think: because that is where everything begins, with a thought (what we call a spark), then an idea, then action, then collaboration....
This is the story of how Goerge Orwell's vision of a future with the technology that we already have was exactly backwards: of how it is the least among us who have been empowered the most, of how there is no Big Brother, only us users, and playing on a more and more level playing field every day: where everyone, regardless of race, religion, or even location will have an equal chance to participate, and to communicate, and to learn, and to grow, and to build.
Living in what seemed to me like a frat house after the end of my 28 year marriage was very uncomfortable for me: so I wanted to use every opportunity possible to get out and to meet some new clients: having had mostly Realtor and Real Estate as clients had backfired terribly: I had made the most common mistake ever: under-capitalization: with no office, no employees, and almost no overhead at all I had thought I could do it without investors this time: then this bad economy hit, and all my Real estate clients stopped buying, and stopped paying: my son and I went from first year revenues of $779 in 2007 to almost nothing at all. The ex could not take it again, so here I was in Ventura, where I had no contacts, no clients, and almost no money, in the worst economy since the 1980's.
So I looked online and found the 'open mic' meeting at Bloblive.com on Meetup.com (a social networking website), was taking place in Santa Monica that evening.
I convinced my son, Solomon to come with me, and we hopped in the $800 'beater' car I had bought on Ebay when I had to give my Hemmy back, and off we went to Santa Monica for free food and an opportunity to get up in front of a small audience and speak about our business.
Interesting venue: while we were waiting for the show, we were given some blue silly putty and were told the best figurines would win a t-shirt.
We also had a drink, and met Brian Bentow, a young, very entrepreneurial software engineer form a good Jewish family in Ventura, of all places, who by some miracle had also showed up to promote his book about computer related injuries. We did not know it at the time, but Brian would become a client, then a partner.
Back to Bloblive, interesting: apparently the company had stated as ideablob.com, a rudimentary (by current standards) social networking site, basically a blog for business ideas. Apparently the founders had found a sponsor in the form of a bank back east that wanted to issue credit cards to entrepreneurs and small businesses, so Bloblive was born, with cameras, live feeds, local media representatives, and apparently an uncanny ability to get on the front page of Twitter every time. The idea was that the press and other online and media exposure would cause ideas to get funded.
Unfortunately, the bank ended up failing but not before we went to several Bloblive open-mic events, and developed quite an affinity for the venue.
When the backer went into bankruptcy, the very popular Bloblive could not adjust to a user-paid revenue model quickly enough, and it failed.
Like Bloblive, our company, Socialmediasystems.com was barely alive at this time. We knew that our window (Search Engine Optimization) would soon be outdated, had known it for months, due to advances in Internet software: we knew that eventually, with WordPress and now it's offspring : Drupal, and other modern content managements systems would be so sophisticated, and that Google's algorithms would eventually evolve sufficiently that our core business would be outdated, and were well on our way to preparing a complete shift into higher end website development; I wanted to be a new kind of advertising agency without the inherent conflict of interest built into the pre-Internet models. Solomon had during this time all but invented an open-source type model for film-making, utilizing advances in band width and storage technology, and the complete shift to digital media to make it possible for novices and professional all over the world to collaborate and make films.
I moved into an apartment in Ventura, and Solomon (an amateur filmmaker who had already made movies on almost no budget that have been seen millions of times from viral marketing) and Brian founded Moviepals Entertainment - based on the press and notoriety Solomon had gained with his low-cost film-making ventures and the extensive press and buzz created for that aspect of the business by Bloblive, including write-ups in the Los Angeles times, and a host of others including National Public Radio (NPR), and with a very small investment form Brian; he moved into an industrial loft with all his green screens, cameras, boom mics, and other film-making paraphernalia, with is new wife, Honey. MOVIEPALS.ORG NOW HAS A SUBSTANTIAL INCOME OF IT'S OWN FROM GOOGLE ADSENSE REVENUE ALONE, AND GETS OVER 1,000 UNIQUE VISITORS PER DAY: AND THEY ARE JUST WRITING THE SCREENPLAYS NOW:

They have been able t0 continue all year in 2009 with revenues from freelance Drupal web design, and I have continued to do website design work in order to survive.
I should stop here to tell you that none of this up-to now is unusual for Internet entrepreneurs: the market changes too quickly, the technology changes too quickly, nobody can keep up. In order to survive, we have been in a constant state of research and development since 2001, when I invented a way to create organic search engine placement by giving away free ads,which evolved into our current methods, with RSS feeds and blogs, and that is constantly changing too: it is like a race, with trade secrets outliving their usefulness so quickly as to have the value of milk stored at room temperature on an open shelf.
So with them moving forward with Moviepals.org without me, and my business (what was left of it) struggling, I needed to do something, and the idea of creating a marketplace evolved: like e-lance or Renta-coder without getting in the way of the transactions with a more free user opt-up revenue model like meetup.com, with over 1,000,000 Meetup groups, with the organizers paying $20 per month for this very robust facilitation and RSVP system with revenue model built in.
If you are wondering about where this is all going, consider that most of these events took place in under 6 months in 2009 in the worst economy since the great depression!
Think about how quickly things change, how volatile it all is, but also how quickly modern technology adapts, and how much less expensive this stuff all is than it used to be, and you will start to understand the big big idea that we came up with while we were all three collaborating and studying e-lance, Rent-a-Coder, linked-in and several other sites while we prepared the build the new software with all the new, modern options in one place: ideapals.org is the big big idea: and it has just gone live in Beta: built in only three weeks in spare time by the collective efforts basically of two programmers: what would have cost millions a few months ago!
