"Be prepared to adjust the binoculars as go -- you may discover a market existing where you didn't know one existed. Like teachers needing bingo cards."

Why do teachers need bingo cards? Because they need easy ways of making interactive and attractive games and puzzles for their students. And they will pay for stuff, but not huge amounts. You might get a monthly fee for a Web based authoring system if the figure is low. We have to be careful about putting students on Web sites, so probably not a fully Web based membership system.

Plenty of room there, UK has around 600,000 teachers, US must be 5 times that. Similar for Europe and other continents.



It was a reference to Bingo Card Creator, patio11's company.


Yes, I know, and I thought it might be useful to state a few obvious reasons why some game software might be useful to teachers!
