Cash Drone

Cash Drone™ is a financial service that would allow a customer to push a button on their smartphone and call a drone down to quickly bring them cash at a variety of locations.

Versus ATMs: This would be more efficient than an ATM because the Cash Drone™ would be mobile. It would be able to meet customers where they were rather than requiring customers to find an ATM and get to it. Providers wouldn't have to figure out how to obtain and maintain many physical locations for ATMs.

Versus Mobile Payments: It would still be useful in the age of mobile payments, because many transactions costing money do not support mobile payments yet, but they all do accept cash.

Security Considerations: It would be a challenge to prevent malicious actors from destroying or stealing a Cash Drone™ or its cash. Like many challenges to business ideas, this challenge presents an opportunity to enhance this idea with additional ideas that will result in a more robust end product. Possible avenues to explore security solutions include solutions that are already in use for ATMs, and solutions that would also apply to all drones. These would not be the only drones that need to secure themselves and their payloads.

Security Ideas: Drones have a risk I call "the butterfly net effect." Ideas to secure drones from interception may include: armor, audio alarms similar to car alarms, flashing lights, and tracking. Armor may include a device similar to some type of strongbox to secure the payload. Tracking may include GPS and other location technologies, and transmission and recording of audio and video.

Shared Project Manifesto Version 2

Contents: Introduction Launch Trade Reward Develop Vote Harvest 1. Introduction IP (Intellectual Property) is a great asset but it is hard to produce well. We hypothesize that a market to facilitate shared projects would make it easy to produce IP better. The Shared Project Model The market contains projects. Each project has one admin and a number of traders and developers. One user can have any combination of roles at the same time. For example, a user may be an admin and also a trader, or a trader and also a developer. Projects Users Admin:  Provides ideas in exchange for control Traders:  Provide incentives in exchange for growth Developers:  Provide IP in exchange for incentives 2. Launch When somebody came up with an idea for an IP product, they could create a project for it on the market. That person would be the admin. The market would record the time the admin launched the project. That lasting record could provide for the admin

Contact Codes™

Contact Codes would make it quick and easy for any individuals or organizations to exchange all kinds of relevant, accurate, contact information. Then, the same service could be used to provide secure login and password recovery. Solution:  We would provide new codes for free through a public site on the web. Contact codes would be relatively short, unique codes, designed to be easy to enter through electronic devices. The codes could come with web addresses to retrieve the associated contact information. The web site would be optimized for mobile devices, and we could also provide mobile apps. Unlimited Applications: Associated information could include actual name, physical address, phone number, email address, and links to profiles on Facebook, Twitter, Snapchat, etc. It is important that we would not limit the associated information to any specific kinds of contact information. This lack of such a limit would allow these codes to be used for all  kinds of contact information,
