5:30-6:00 First up is Addison Hardy of Spoonfire, calling from Willmigton, NC.
6:00-6:45 Addison pitches Spoonfire, an interface that allows restaurants to receive and manage orders online.
9:45-12:00 Jason says the pitch could have used more enthusiasm and some hard numbers about restaurants and why they need this. He gives it a 7.
12:00-12:15 Tyler gives the pitch 6.5.
21:30-22:45 Jason: You should tell the people you meet with if you want to be part of an incubator program, if you want an angel investment or if you want to be hired on to a larger organization. I give the business model an 8.
22:45-23:15 Tyler gives the business a 7.
25:00-26:30 Thank you to Hiscox for sponsoring the show. Everyone thank @Hiscox on Twitter and visit HiscoxUSA.com/SmallBiz for a free quote online!
26:30-27:45 Next up is Julian Shapiro of NameLayer.com.
30:00-31:00 I would have liked to hear an example of someone paying for a bad domain name, then finding out that they could have gotten something better through your service. I give the pitch a 7.
33:30-34:15 Tyler gives the pitch an 8 or 8.5. I also like the design.
36:00-36:45 Next up is Armand Konan pitching the Did U? app.
36:45-38:00 Armand pitches Did U?
42:30-44:00 We need to do another This Week in Docs about the AirFrance flight that went down.
45:15-46:30 Jason gives the pitch a 7 and idea a 6. Tyler gives the pitch a 6.
49:00-50:00 Randy smith pitches and demos MobilePay.
52:00-53:30 Jason gives the pitch a 5 and the business a 6.
57:30-58:45 Tyler: There's an arguable benefit to the customer but the real benefit is to the retailer?
01:01:30-01:02:30 Jason gives the pitch a 5, and Tyler gives them a 7 on pitch and an 8 on the product.
01:02:30-01:03:45 What's been your favorite so far, Tyler?
01:03:45-01:04:45 Take it away, Ethan Jones of Publicbeat. (Ethan pitches.)
01:06:00-01:06:30 Tyler gives the pitch a 6.5 and the business a 6.
01:06:30-01:07:30 Jason also gives the pitch a 5/6, but agrees that the execution was good.
01:08:45-01:11:15 Ethan, why did you choose to enter this space?
01:12:45-01:14:30 Insight from Tyler: It's like an all-hands meeting at an amputee clinic.
01:17:45-01:19:30 This is not a pitch that's going to be successful with investors.
01:22:45-01:24:00 Spoonfire, NameLayer, MobilePay, Did U? and Publicbeat--which was your favorite, Tyler?
01:24:00-01:25:00 Jason and Tyler's #1 was NameLayer, who will receive a table at the LAUNCH Conference in March 2012.
01:25:00-01:26:00 Thank you to GoToMeeting and Hiscox for sponsoring the show.
