Have you guys ever seen the Dragon's den?

Really cool entrepreneur show, where the entrepreneurs, have a chance to present their company to investors/dragons. It's good to see how to/how not to pitch ideas in the real world. Check this out http://www.bbc.co.uk/dragonsden/series2_episode1.shtml

....I love the wireless networks for the marina, idea.

Lol, I love this show It use to be played in Australia but I haven't seen it for a while. It's quite interesting to be able to see people ideas. Thanks for bringing up the topic I totally forgot all about this show!

Its a brilliant show!! but i cant believe how some people think they will be taken seriously with completely stupid ideas.

such crap, feeding fantasies to souls watching this rubbish on tv

first off - never fund first timers and rule two - never fund strangers, rule three almost certainly don't back consumer startups

that's realistic pitches, not the beauty contest on you see on tv
