Here's Hive Division's main website, and a quote from the "Who We Are" section. http://www.hivedivision.net/"Hive Division is an independent Italian production studio: we are 6 companions/associates working together, with a network of over 50 young creatives operating in the field of video-making. We cooperate both live and online, thanks to the Internet, and we combine our skills to make movies.
We started out of passion, with no budget, working on the MGS: Philanthropy project. Now, after five years experience in the field, we are looking forward to new creative projects – and new challenges."So, "MGS: Philanthropy" is a Metal Gear Solid fan film made by Hive Division, and it's made into three parts, but currently, only part one exists. In fact, part one of the film is the only film they've actually completed. Not surprisingly, "MGS" stands for "Metal Gear Solid." Here's the website for the film. http://www.mgs-philanthropy.net/And here's a quote from one of their blog posts about MGS: Philanthropy. "Right now we’re rummaging through the original story we wrote some 7 years ago. We are not sure yet about all the details of the operation, we just know it’s probably going to be a web series and that we’ll need to throw a crowd funding campaign in order to make it feasible."I was wondering if Bitcoin could help them with their job, if they're short on money. If a bunch of people told them about Bitcoin, how would they respond? |

"Soda PDF 3D Reader is a completely free application featuring our patent-pending 3D technology to flip the pages on screen like you would with a real book!" says the website for it. http://sodapdf.com/I was looking for programs to read text and picture collections like a book, and Soda PDF is almost perfect, except it repetitively raises and lowers the corner of the first page of a PDF (as an invitation to "turn the page), and there doesn't seem a way to turn it off. The repetitive page raising is not good for a PDF of pictures, in my opinion. Perhaps we could all send an e-mail to the company for the feature to be disabled, but do you know of some other "book-like" PDF viewers, and some "book-like" viewers for other types of files? |

My plan is making digital goods to sell. I don't want to reveal too much on a public forum post, but I need at least one personal message partner to help do research, and promote the digital good. I know of CoinUploads, and it's what I have in mind to post the digital good on. Here's the site. http://www.coinuploads.com/I cannot pay you, (unless you're okay with less than a dollar) but you might be able to get some of the profits of the digital good. It doesn't seem CoinUploads allows more than one bitcoin address per file, (though that feature can always be requested) but we could have two copies of the same file for each of our bitcoin addresses. |

I'm looking to set up business, but I'm seeing if there's people willing to give me cash already.
I consider the following to be fairly private, so what I say on this post is the only information I'm willing to reveal.
I want to travel, but plane tickets are expensive and there's also the cost of actually being in the country.
I also don't like where I live. If not leave the location entirely, I'd like to be able to take a break from where I live in a hopefully better place. Remember when the "Boys N' Da Hood" wanted to leave Watts, LA? This is simaliar.
My bitcoin address is on my signature.

What are some reasons to want lots of money that doesn't involve materialism? I can think of two.
1: Travel
Travelling to forigen countries and other parts of your country can be fun, but it can also be quite expensive. Plane tickets can cost thousands of dollars, for example.
2: Healthcare
If you look up "John and Schoep," you'll find a true story about how a man is able to afford laser treatment for his aging dog because of donations, where he was only able to afford basic medication before.

I already asked for one partner before, but I want some more now, because other people might be able to fill in when others don't have time right now. Here's the previous topic. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=198531I don't have any particular person in mind, but I'm looking for someone who is creative, or good at looking up information, or both. |

I put this on "Gambling," but after a request to put this in "Goods" or another Marketplace category, I decided, what the heck. Previous topic below. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=197060People take works that have fallen out of copyright and sell them, like old movies, William Shakespeare's plays, and so on, so I decided to do something similar. I took a bunch of public domain books I found on the internet, concealed their titles to make them surprise books, and uploaded them onto CoinUploads. You pay 2 dollars worth of Bitcoins for each book. You don't get any money in return, but the concept is, if you discover a book that enjoyable for you, you win a bet, whereas if you discover a book that's not enjoyable, you lose a bet. A version of a public domain work can be copyrighted, but I never uploaded any books from any organization that said their versions of public domain books were copyrighted. There's millions of public domain books out there, and it's probably impossible to know about millions of anything. So you'll likely find books that you would never have known about otherwise. It might be a book you wouldn't normally give much attention to otherwise, but maybe in the best case, you're pleasantly surprised at the information you didn't know would be interesting to you. Paying 2 dollars and seeing what the book is and has in it, would that be fun? Are you willing to do that? I tried to have books that represent at least a fairly wide range of interests and, and I think they're more obscure books, so it's likely you'll discover a book you never heard of. All books are in PDF format.

I set up a "gambling business" involving public domain ebooks, but so far, no one seems to be interested. Link below. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=197060I considered joining a Bitcoin mining pool, but I do not internet access at home, so I rely on using public internet. Unless it's possible to mine without any computers on, do you know of some good ways to earn passive income? How much money can you earn in a week? EDIT: You can also put up things that can pay me well within the time I'm using public internet. |

I originally posted this on the Newbies forum, before my position was upgraded to Jr. Member. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=193708Are there any subjects you're having difficulty researching, online or otherwise? There's many subjects I wanted to know about, but the only one I can think of off the top of my head right now is what shades black and white film converts different colors to. What shade would cyan be, for example? |

I originally made a topic with the same subject on the Newbies forum, but the comments weren't so favorable, and it doesn't look like anyone downloaded the books. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=192039People take works that have fallen out of copyright and sell them, like old movies, William Shakespeare's plays, and so on, so I decided to do something similar.

The first part is lengthy, so I highlighted it in bold if you want to skip to the main question. Previously, I made a post with links to public domain books I uploaded into CoinUploads, with the titles purposely omitted, and called it a "gambling business." You download a book for a fee, and see if it is a book you like. Link below.
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=192039
The comments weren't favorable, and it doesn't seem that anyone downloaded the books.
"Take free books, I'm assuming it's books like Moby Dick, Lord of the Flies, Tale of Two Cities etc, then sell a random link?"
They're more obscure ones, I don't think I would upload a bunch of "hot and popular" books that everyone could easily find.
Is anyone willing to pay to discover books they never heard of? Perhaps a person gets an ebook they might never touch otherwise, but they read it anyway, and they find at least some entertainment value in it. Of course, since it's gambling, perhaps the person would still find the book boring and decide they "lost a bet."
People take works that have fallen out of copyright and sell them, like old movies, William Shakesphere's plays, and so on, so I thought it would be no harm if I did something similar. They might claim copyright to their versions of the works, but I think public domain allows you to do anything you want with it.
I didn't put up any books from any organizations that said their books are copyrighted, and I do not claim copyright to any of the books I put up.
So, what do you think? Is two dollars too expensive? Should I just reveal the titles of all the books?
Anyways, can you tell me of some good ways to earn passive income, even if I have to make my own works? |

I decided to set up this mini gambling business. You don't get money in return, but you may get some interesting knowledge or entertainment, or you may get something that's completely uninteresting to you. None of the books are mine, they are old public domain books I found on the internet. Out of the millions of public domain books out there, there are thirteen mystery ones here. I uploaded them all on CoinUploads. All files are in PDF format.

I found Soda PDF 3D Reader, and it's almost perfect, except on the first page of a PDF file, it repetitively lifts and lowers the corner of the page, (as an indication to "turn the page!") and I can't find a way to disable it. Do you know of another "book-like" PDF viewer which doesn't do that, or should we send a million letters to the company who made Soda PDF asking them for an option to disable it? I would prefer that you do not reveal the names of the books, but otherwise, let me know what you think. |

Is there a list of rules for this forum? I can't seem to find any. I want to make sure I'm being good.
