An Entrepreneurial Idea...Maybe
As a big fan of Cosmo magazine, I really enjoy the lists that they post on their website. For example, a recent one they did was "Ten Things Women Should Know By 25" and it was just a list of things that women should have or be good at by the time they turn 25. They do a lot of lists like this and judging by the amount of likes and comments that they get, they seem to be really popular. One thing I noticed through reading the comments though is that people wanted more serious lists and less about men and drinking. I then decided to write a post on my blog about this and then I tweeted out the link. Well, the writer of those lists saw my tweet, read my blog post, and tweeted me back saying that she loved it and is going to write a more serious list for Cosmo. I love Cosmo and I freaked out and was extremely excited. I still can't believe that Cosmo is writing a story based off of my idea. Anyways, I got to thinking about the lists and their popularity. I love reading the lists, but I also love making lists. I started thinking about making my own website (or for now, just a blog) that featured only lists. I could do a wide variety of things and make one to two new posts a day. An example could be "Ten Things to Do While in College" or "Ten Ways You Can Beat Senioritis" or anything like that which could relate to girls my age. I would make a list and then write a short description for everything on the list. I don't think I could do that idea for this class because it's not too journalistic, but I definitely want to do it on my own. I would call it something like, Kate's List or something like that. Just an idea.
