Comments on: OMG! Ponies! http://astartupaday.com/2009/11/04/omg-ponies/ Each day I'll post an idea for a new Web 2.0 startup Wed, 21 Apr 2010 20:08:00 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.com/ By: Lucas http://astartupaday.com/2009/11/04/omg-ponies/#comment-4009 Lucas Thu, 05 Nov 2009 15:48:59 +0000 http://astartupaday.wordpress.com/2009/11/04/omg-ponies/#comment-4009 I like it! You are right, when people realize that farmville is a thing of the past they are going to want some pay back. And there will either be OMG Ponies! waiting for them or they may take to the streets. The last thing I want to see is a bunch of angry virtual farmers loose in the streets of Miami. There is enough hostility on our roads already thank you very much. I was toying around with another facebook app for painttwits. But with mine you need to replace “World’s Cutest Stuff” with "Worlds Greatest Art". Also replace ponies and teddies with great art and not such great art by current artists. Mine isn't a war game though. Just put the two images next to each other in little pop up voting boxes and give people a choice. A"Which image is more appealing to you?" kind of thing. That way the software could start to filter the "best" art and painttwits could invite those artists to be part of the bata group. Its not science, its Painttwits! I like it!

Its hugely ironic that the woman who nagged me about being online 24/7 is now growing make believe beans 24/7. That being said...... if your goal was to make a game I would play, you would fail. But if your goal is to make $ I find it difficult to think the crowd I see frequent farmville etc wouldn't use this. ROFL
