Last night in the nation’s [U.S.A. that is] capital we listened to some amazing speakers and then watched 55 pitches!
People talked, recruited, bribed [?] and things shook down to 11 teams:
1. Feeling Lucky
Feeling Lucky will be a full service website that will cater to all the requirements of lottery players. The site would offer 3 types of services (each addressing corresponding problems listed above):
- Past Number Trend Analysis: This section of the site would allow users to create lottery ticket combinations based on past drawn numbers. Users could run various reports (e.g. (i) most frequent numbers drawn in the last 1 year (ii) least frequent numbers drawn in the last 5 years (iii) most frequently drawn Megaball number and so on) This would allow users to create strategies and save these strategies as well as back test them against prior data. Also, as the results of subsequent drawings are available they can be compared against your saved strategies to determine how effective your strategies are.
- Messenger service: This section of the site would allow users to play the lottery without going to a store to purchase the ticket. Users can establish a balance with our site and add to their cart what lotteries they would like us to play for them.
- Lottery Pools: This section of the site would allow users to invest their money in lottery pools. We could have multiple lottery pools with different attributes e.g. 1 pool could be a $100 pool with 100 combinations based on the most frequently drawn numbers strategy. Another pool could be $100 pool with 100 combinations based on quick pick strategy and so on. users could invest small amounts of money in multiple pools e.g. $5 in pool 1, $5 in pool 2 and so on and thereby maximize their chances of winning

10. CocoSouffle
CocoSoufflé, an online boutique registry, was cooked up to ensure life’s sweetest (or bitter sweet) moments never go unacknowledged. Your best friend’s decision to leave that toxic relationship; your sister’s graduation from college; your favorite barista never forgetting your extra whip – these women deserve a little extra puff, but what to get? The CocoSoufflé registry conveniently houses a woman’s “sweet list” of the items she most appreciates, or can’t stop eyeing. So rather than guessing (or forgetting to guess) what to get the special ladies all around, simply log onto CocoSoufflé, click and send. Being the shining star who never forgets got a lot easier and much more cosmopolitan. There is more to life than celebrating a wedding and a baby; never let another sweet (or bitter sweet) moment escape her.
