I am blessed beyond measure. I have everything I ever wanted, and more in life. I have an incredible wife that I adore (I have no idea why she married a tool like me). I have the two girls I always dreamed of having (never wanted a boy). And I have incredible parents and a great brother who helped make me who I am today.In addition, I have a job that I love, and my own office (finally! No more stupid cubicles!)

I want to develop a software system that posts the day's classroom conversations to a blog that parents of students in that classroom can access. You see, I suspect that if parents had a better idea of what teacher and students discussed that day, it would be a more engaging and interesting conversation between parent and child later in the day. Especially in the younger years when their descriptions can be, um, slightly obfuscated.
Now at the same time, I don't want the teachers to have to do any more work than they already have to. So, I have a few ideas about how to execute this in a more automatic fashion.
Anyone interested in developing it with me? We probably need $10k to get it off the ground. And for those of you interested in education, this would be a fantastic start-up to consider funding.
I don't think I'm alone, I want to have more engaging conversation with my kids. And sometimes its hard to get on the same page about things that were discussed in the classroom. It takes a village, and if teacher and parents are re-inforcing the same themes, the villagers are that much better at helping out.
