Twitpitch: That Failed Idea

[via email]

After talking with an entrepreneur who was having trouble
articulating the vision for his start up, it occurred to me that it
might be fun to host a twitter stream of 140-character elevator
pitches. After thinking about it a bit I concluded that someone must
have thought of it before, which led me to some googling and your
proposal of “twitpitch”.

I think it’s a
concept worth reviving. Any ideas on why it failed to take hold or what
you would do if you had a second shot? Would you be interested in
giving it a second shot, with some help?

Yup, those failed ideas, like the one that lead you to email me.

By all means tell us what you have up your sleeve for a ‘revival’.
