This month's 5 Across event was yet another success (see www.5across.org). The 5 pitches were:

  • David Slone presenting Restaurant Outlets, which is a location based website which distributes restaurant coupons and special deals via Push notifications to iPhones.
  • Gip Gibson presented Bhopper, which is similar to Groupon. Bhopper is a Deal-of-the-Day website with a social conscience.
  • Nathan McConathy presented Wedding Caption, which is a wedding photography iPhone Application.
  • Andre' Henderson presented Parlay. Parlay will be an application that works directly through video game consoles to allow gamers competing online, against each other, to bet money on their contests. Parlay will sync with Xbox Live and Playstation Network to correlate player versus player betting.
  • Tuan Ho presented RoadTripTracker, which is a roadtrip tracking website/platform that utilizes web 2.0 technology, such as Facebook, Yelp, Foursquare, etc.

The winner decided by the judges was Nathan McConathy with “Wedding Caption”. The audience winner (decided via text message) was Nathan as well. Congratulations Nathan! You did a great job.

All the pitches were great! We're sure the judges had a hard time making their decision. Thanks to everyone who came out in support of this event. We were happy to see you and hope you enjoyed it as much as we did. See you all next time!
