Enter my "open source" biz plan for leveraging media -- and situation comedy in particular -- to establish the most popular online market for customized education.

See OpportuniTV.com for details. Two (de facto) reviews of earlier versions of the site's content:

"I just spent about an hour surfing around with a bit of amazement."

Josh Peterson Co-Founder/CEO 43Things.com (an Amazon.com company) December 12, 2004

"Frank, you are a good man. Have you thought about joining this team? Your only alternative, of course, is venture capital. But their usual models require getting rid of the 'originator' within the first eighteen months. With Netscape it took a little longer, but you get the idea."

Randy Hinrichs Manager, Learning Sciences and Technology Group Microsoft Research December 1998

Enjoy!

It's only tangentially relevant and reads like spam.

Kathy Sierra's only point is: customized education, good; standardized, bad.

My plan describes how to make customized education available on a grand scale ASAP.

Q.E.D. :-)
