Hear first hand about the idea that won "Best Overall" in the Iowa State Business Pitch competition, featured on the front page of the ISU Daily, talked about all over facebook, and is one of the top 4 in the Iowa State University Pappajohn Business Plan competition right now.

I discuss the algorithms used and the processes involved, along with how I plan on making this application a steady source of revenue.

Walk through these theories with me to see where we are heading.
