Corvus Consulting

If you weren’t at BarCamp Vancouver just over a week ago, you likely didn’t hear about the little product jam session that Darren and I kicked off that fine Saturday.

The gist was simple: there are people coming to Vancouver for the 2010 Olympics who need a place to stay, and there are people who live here who’d rather spend the event somewhere else, and want to rent their place out. Surely there’s a lucrative web enterprise waiting to be born of this happy circumstance? At the session we talked feasibility and high level requirements, and it went well, as you can see from our notes (props to Julie Szabo, by the way, for driving the whiteboard to help us capture the ideas).

There was enough interest to spin off a project-specific wiki, and we’ve snagged the big meeting room at WorkSpace tomorrow evening to continue creating a project scope and to see if a motley crew can put together something cool. The fun starts at 7 sharp.

It takes all types to get this kind of project off the ground, so it’s a come-one, come-all invitation, with one rule calling for constructive participation. If this sounds interesting, come on out.
