Bitcoin Town: Restaurant Franchise

[acoindr]

I know. But there is still the occasional kid that would rather come to a "internet café" than use his home PC, or a hobo that wants to check his email. Or just a family that can't afford a computer, but could afford a few dollars for an hour or two.

Well anyone can do the idea however they want, but the way I see it is not so much as an Internet cafe, where the focus is getting on the Internet. Instead it's a place where Internet access is convenient. I know that probably sounds like the same thing

However, in my mind there isn't a charge for accessing the Internet. Instead you pay for the food. So it's kind of like Starbucks. I think Starbucks does well because they are close to the model I have in mind. The only thing I would change is having the dining area more computer friendly, room for plenty of computers, and have actual food you can order.

I get what you are saying now.
Like a restaurant that advertises its wifi as much as mcdonalds does

McDonald's is also close, but still not it. I get the feeling you're trying to say what I have in mind already exists. It doesn't. That's why I thought it up.

The problem with McDonald's is they don't have places for you to easily plug in. Also their food isn't what I'd call great. People go to McDonald's because they want to eat what is by now famous McDonald's food, or their kids do. The wifi is a side offering. What I'm saying is computer/Internet access is a focus. If I said make a place that sells hamburgers you'd say you mean like so and so already does. There are lots of ways to sell a hamburger and hamburger restaurants have varying success because of that. Small changes can mean a world of difference.

guys ignore finchaggys brain farts.. it always starts off with one dream which warps into something completely different.

1. a restaurant ( definition: offing selection of meat and veg on a plate, using knife and fork, served with a glass of wine or other drink from a drinks menu, served by waiters)

2. fast food (definition: burgers, fries, salad bar, and the "only bottle of red" on the table is ketchup)

3. internet cafe (definition: main purpose is the using of computing and internet, where food /drink is not the main theme)

now then with all of those electric cables charging laptops sprawled across the floor i truly hope he realises why carrying around half a gallon cup of soft drink or a bowl of salad is a health ans safety hazard. and reasons why mcdonalds dont offer such luxuries.

but no this guy has never seen a public liability insurance policy in his life.

Obviously you wouldn't route cables on the floor. You could have the outlets higher up on a centered pole. And Mc Donalds's did get sued for serving scalding hot coffee after some person wasted it in his lap. You can make up a lawsuit for pretty much anything.

[franky1]

i was on about the average length of laptop charging cable being 2 metres. so wherever the electric outlet/socket is placed. there will always be excess knotted up on tables of rolled up on the floor.

this is why most established cyber cafe's have their own cubicles with their own PCS built into the cubicles and they rent out time to use it. as oppose to the utopian dream of sofa's and softchairs where people can bring in their own computers and charge their laptops freely wherever they decide to sit/stand to within the cafe.

but i dont even know why im bothering to point out the fundimental planning parts of a cybercafe..

finshaggy just wants peoples money and leg it back to his commune to build his weed farm.

I thought he was sounding out ideas for possible franchise models, something people could do anywhere.

Bundled cables are not a big problem. You can have a space between the outlet pole and back of tables. And your electricity concerns are with the AC outlet, not where the cord plugs into the back of a laptop to provide DC.

It's not much different than people using computers at home. I don't know why it seems an unimaginable risk.

in public buildings or retail buildings open to the public there are many many different rules about health and safety compared to at home requiring only basic common sense. yes its bureaucracy gone mad, we all know that governments want to control everything and turn everything into a nanny state. but finshaggy has proven with all of his 12 + projects just in the last month he does not know the fundamentals.

he wants people to see his polished final product with a neon sign on the door before realising the purchase price of a real beef burger and offering fibre optic internet speeds to a bunch of anonymous people who may not be able to afford internet at home so require a internet cafe. wont wish to pay his prices.

he one month ago had no clue about mining, but suddenly has a relative that will build him an ASIC.

i can pick at all of his 12 projects at why his 1btc holding wont even scratch the surface, of breaking ground. but thats besides the point, he has no intention of breaking ground. just grabbing cash pirate style.

i only pick at his posts asking him questions about the fundementals so that the other people that do not wish to research all of his 1900 posts and his facebook page can see by the lack of replies how his plans change instantly but never answering the fundementals. in the hope that they too see his inadequateness in being a leader of any form of project.

but as a positive note, he does have an imagination and his idea's have comedical merit. so they are worth the laughs and giggles

finshaggy what you dont realise is that on the left panel where it shows your name, below it has a counter that tells you how many times you have been ignored.

it is such a shame that you pretend to have ignored me purely to avoid answering the questions i ask..

because i know that you have not infact ignored me because the ignore count has not increased.

but as i said before you would prefer to ignore direct questions about the basics, because you have no answers nor intend to go into the beginning of researching answers, due to your lack of intentions to begin these projects.

you spend all of your time writing up new projects in the hope someone will pay you money. and never spend the time to research a project to make it a workable plan.

what you also don't realise is that if your idea did infact have any notion of being a workable plan with a slim bit of success, i purely with my own funds could have easily have bought the land mass required for such a project.

and that is the part that makes me laugh the most. you have no intention to research the basics to get investment from big guys.  you do however want to swing wild images of uptopia around in the hope of scamming the naive users that could just about afford to send you some money, but not enough to chase after you and enforce a court judgement on you after you try running off.

A Bitcoin Restaurant and Bitcoin farm could work together to be more possible

Franky; while i think your tone is a bit harsh, you do make some valid points. A business needs a plan. That plan needs absolute understanding by the principals. Then comes presenting the plan to people that can help finance it and offer guidance and lessons about how to avoid common pitfalls.

Finshaggy should probably, change his name, learn how to write a plan with milestones and goals that need to be achieved towards success and challenges that need to be overcome, learn how to pitch said plan clearly and concisely; and finally dress a little better and avoid MJ for a few hours before presentinging the plan. There is nothing wrong with long hair, a beard, and eyes straight out of Pinapple Express. When combined with the lack of planning, all credibility is lost.

Finshaggy, I love that you are a dreamer. Add some planning and presentation, and you'll have the tools to succeed at whatever your dreams may be. Best of luck.

LOL LOL LOL

Add some planning?

Watch what I add to Bitcointalk (and these threads specifically) in the next 3 months. These aren't dreams, it's completely planned out.

[FinShaggy]

Go ahead and check this out. The restaurant isn't even the whole plan, there are plenty of milestones.

The farm comes before the restaurant, and so do a few other things probably. All depends on what we need and what we can afford.

And I still haven't finished making videos about the restaurant. I have made about 36 videos about the town, and have over 180 to make total.
