0:00-1:00 Welcome to the first TWiST London meetup with Jason and Tyler in London!
1:00-6:30 Thank you to SurveyMoney for sponsoring the show! Everyone remember to thank them @SurveyMonkey on Twitter for their support of independent media like TWiST.
6:30-7:30 The first pitch is for Streaming Well by Genevieve Robson, co-founder. Streaming Well is an online network of health channels that manages the production and distribution of videos geared toward educating patients and healthcare professionals.
7:30-8:30 Jason: This was a solid pitch and it's a great business.
8:30-9:30 Jason: It would be good to give us a personal reason why you founded the site.
9:30-11:15 Tyler: What impression did you want us to walk away with?
11:15-14:15 Tyler gives the presentation a 6.
14:15-16:00 Jason gives the business idea an 8.
16:00-18:45 Sanford, what do you give this on a scale of 1-10 as a business idea?
18:45-19:30 Do you think our feedback was fair?
19:30-20:15 Next up to pitch is Six3. The presenter is Tim Grimsditch.
20:15-21:30 The pitch: Six3 is a video messaging client that integrates between Macs, PCs and mobile devices to enable you to send free, sixty-three second video messages.
21:30-22:45 Sanford: The presentation was excellent, I give it an 8.
22:45-23:30 Tyler: You had good posture and enthusiasm which made it personal.
23:30-25:00 Jason: Telling us what was unique or what major problem you're solving would have made the pitch exceptional.
25:00-27:15 Jason: On a business level, I'm sort of at a 7 right now.
27:15-30:30 Sanford, what do you think of the business?
30:00-32:00 Sanford: One of the challenges I think you'll have is finding a niche.
32:00-35:00 Thank you to MailChimp for sponsoring the show!
35:00-36:30 Next up is Lee Morgenroth pitching Lee Mail.
36:30-37:45 The pitch: Lee Mail provides dummy email accounts specific to what you're signing up for in order to reduce unwanted mail in your inbox. Click the Lee Mail button to generate a new email addresses when signing up for something online, then manage those communications within the Lee Mail platform.
37:45-39:45 Sanford: I liked your presentation and I think the idea about communicating the solution was great. I still have some questions about alternatives, though.
39:45-42:30 Jason: I give the presentation a 5 but I think the business idea is good.
42:30-44:15 Tyler: I would actually use this.
44:15-47:30 Tyler gives the business an 8, Jason gives it a 7.
47:30-49:00 Jason: I feel like this might be better as a Google App for business. I'm intrigued but not sold.
49:00-53:30 Jason and Tyler vote on their favorite company and the winner is Lee Mail! They win a table at the LAUNCH conference in March 2012 in San Francisco.
