I have been an entrepreneur all my life. I started, bootstrapped and sold several companies over the years. I made money on some and I lost money on some. Last year I started One Year Auction website. I never looked for angel investors or VCs but I want to give it a try now. I applied to be on ABC’s Shark Tank TV show. You can vote for my One Year Auction startup on http://sharktankzone.com and hopefully I will make it into Shark Tank season 4. Wish me luck!

Sometimes I think to myself "yah know this simple bit of technology could have some real use in my office.

Then someone asks me what PC load letter means and I remember that technology and idiots never works out.

Nobody wants to replace email. It just needs to be improved (SMTP is pretty old, we need a standard with verified security and anti-spam built in). But replacing SMTP is on the backend, it's not going to change the user interface. This company has a solution in search of a problem.

"Nobody wants to replace email."

I am not too sure of that... I know of at least one high tech company that was trying to eliminate 'email' within their organization.

Pfff.... right. That's as asinine. It's like saying you're going to "replace" walking.
