About Me:

I am starting a paper for waiting areas, restaurants, bars, hotels, doctors offices, etc... called News in a Minute. It's just a 4 page paper with quick relevant news along with quick sports, hollywood, childrens drawing spot, horoscope, funny true weird quick stories ... a way to catch up quickly on what's happening and have a little reading entertainment while waiting. I was looking for someone to create a skeleton of a newspaper online where business owners could go and buy an ad space but be able to manipulate the text in that space to meet their own needs or create their own ads. I found this, you guys!!!! Fantastic! ... except I was trying to start a test paper by December this year. I just love what you are doing and hope to be involved in the up coming beta test... what ever that is. Thank you for your wonderful brains!!! :) Great stuff!!!!

I was planning on paying a sum and have a booth at the huge rest and hotel conference held in Chicago at McCormick place next summer ... but will need a paper to do that. I would also be happy to promote what you are doing, if that's of any use AND if I get to go.

Ooop explained above. Want .. need to create a 4 page paper called News in a Minute where potential advertisers can pay for a space and manipulate that space to place their own ads and then print out.

What do you think are the biggest problems to solve with printed newspapers and magazines?

1.Getting it to the people!!!

2. Allowing people to create and pay for their own ads easily! Like really easily.
