This sounds fun! Wish there was a live cam on it. I would love to see which companies you have running.

@abasa live cam is a great idea, +1

@abasa There are multiple live cams in Times Square (https://www.earthcam.com/cams/ne...), available on Earthcam. Will be interesting to know the location of billboard to watch it remotely
Ken Savage
@abasa @yassersultan RIGHT! but which one shows the billboard that everyone's logo will appear on? 🤷‍♂️

@abasa @yassersultan @kensavage Hey folks! we're at 41st and broadway in nyc

@frantzlight That's damn close. Are you saying we should come visit you on friday?
Chris Frantz
I've spent probably a hundred million dollars on Facebook and Google Ads. And I'm done with it. With my new startup, I'm doing things differently. I'm taking our ad budget and I'm spending it on cool things for startups instead of shoveling it into Facebook. This is the first Cool Thing™ we're releasing. Email to Billboard is super simple. You send us an email with an image and a tagline for your startup, and if you're one of the 60 startups picked, your startup will get featured this Friday on a billboard in Times Square. We'll even tag you on Twitter with a photo of your startup when it's live! We bought the ad space and we're devoting 100% of it to you, our fellow startups. 🚀

@frantzlight Great idea Chris! Nice initiative to help out fellow makers. When the ad is up, will be great if you could let us know the location of the billboard. Earthcam has multiple live cams listed for Times Square (https://www.earthcam.com/cams/ne...), will be exciting to watch the ad remotely :)
