Join us around 7:15 p.m. CDT for live-streaming of demo pitches from the four teams at Startup Weekend Omaha. Here are the four ideas being presented (in order):
- Keepum – An online Twitter archiving service keeping your tweets and favorite searches and allowing you to explore, export and embed those tweets. (Originally pitched by Danny Schreiber.)*
- Call Spinner – A network that allows you to place a random phone call to someone else on the network. Think Chatroulette for the phone. (Originally pitched by Alex Gates.)
- Ever Present – A web and smartphone app that daily asks you a question about your baby. You answer, the app keeps the data and at the end of certain period of time you can turn that data into a baby book (Originally pitched by Nia Nielsen.)
- Focus Group Up – The Groupon model applied to finding people to participate in a focus group. (Originally pitched by Joe Frost.)
Note: Buzz, which was originally pitched by Grant Stanley will not be presenting.
