Building Up

Lately I have had a couple ideas regarding an online community/business based on the interests I have. It must be the MBA inside of me wanting to use all this knowledge I have accumulated. Since competitive gaming is out of my life (for the better I would say) I have shifted my focuses more to reading and self improvement. I tend to read blogs ALOT nowadays and am always searching for new stuff. This made me realize I would like to use my business skills for good and not evil to create an online site / community. I am taking a class this semester on decision making and creativity and this concept was a child of those exercises! Here is a list of some of the stuff I would like to include as topics or areas of interest.

  • Music; mostly independent labels and artists
  • Fitness; everybody should care about their health
  • Technology; Duh.
  • Pop Culture; open to suggestions on this one
  • Style and Fashion for geeks, as well as those who like to look nice
  • Movies and Books
I am searching out there for people who could fit into my idea. I have a couple friends who are very passionate about music.

Edit: My concept is a mish mash of offerings and concepts from sites like Men's Health.com, Pitchforkmedia.com, and G4tv.com. I love everything these sites offer but there has yet to be a successful site that offers all of this in a way that suits people like me. With the help of others I would like to make this possible because what it comes down to is that I would love a website or community like this.
