Hello World!

I'm a wanna be computer geek, so I thought Hello World was a good title for a first post.

What does "Wanna Be" mean?  It means I have a degree in computer science, but due to my limited programming skills and preference to working with real people, I used my degree to get a job in IT...(Queue the Scary Music)...SALES.  Joining the Darkside seemed a more logical career move for me and so far it has been.

Anyways what does this have to do with a startup in the cloud you ask?   I'm starting a company and we're going to collaborate, build, learn and fail on the cloud!  Sooooo exciting I know!  What will my company actually do?  Still in the works but basically we're, (My business partner) hoping to create an alternative route to experts, and answer a simple question:  "Is a group or CROWD of humans better than a group of computers?"  We would have asked is a group of people smarter than a single expert, but I think books like "The Wisdom of Crowds"  and Facebook are showing how smart we are collectively.

Anyways I plan to make regular updates about our progress, and in turn learn what it takes to create a successful startup.
