So I'm at Olin this summer, technically working on only one venture but now I'm starting on another project idea. The venture is Lonoa (http://www.lonoa.com), which is something that's been put together by a group of 7 classmates and myself. Chris Fitzhugh and I are working 40 hours a week on it at the Olin College Foundry (our incubation center for ventures) and things have been going really great! Press release is coming soon, and work on a prototype will be starting soon. We also submitted a provisional patent application at the end of May, and it's pretty cool to be patent pending at age 18.
I'm also working on another business idea, which is more specifically a toy idea. We've been getting a lot of support for it whenever we talk to people, and it really looks like it might come off the ground. I'm not going to disclose exactly what it is, but it's pretty exciting stuff! Yesterday I created a 10,000 pixel wide, 15 foot wide when printed (and yes, I printed it), mindmap of all of our ideas for the toy. It was pretty mind numbing but I did it all!
I'm keeping this post short so that I don't run out of things to say immediately and stop blogging again. Until then, enjoy yourself. Also, enjoy my Flickr, Twitter, and LinkedIn sites.
