Hello everyone. It’s been a while since we’ve updated. Honestly, the team has been working so hard on OurBlock that we’ve been too busy to blog about what’s going on. The team is still very secretive about what we have to do and what’s been done so far but I can share with you a few items that we’ve done even if I’m still extremely vague about what’s happening.
- Our team now has 4 people. All four people have full time jobs and this is only part time for now since we’re not trying to make any money off this and it’s a labor of love.
- We have actively began seeking capital (cash) to pay some much needed bills, web hosting & get some live cameras up and running.
- We have agreements with three US cities now to work with OurBlock exclusively to reduce crime using real-time crowd-sourced neighborhood watch.
- Our business model has four tiers that I can’t share right now but we have a business model.
- We are still hiring more people and if you’re interested, there’s a link on our homepage.
- We have a video partner to help OurBlock deliver real-time video at little or no cost to the end user
- We have partnerships with 5 publicly traded companies and a few private companies for hardware, software & hosting
- We are working on non-profit status as a second arm of OurBlock so we can accept and distribute donations to our communities
The final aspect that I wanted to touch on is that we’re no where near completed. If all four team members were able to quit their jobs today, the site would be up in 30 days w/ a few cameras available at launch. The reality is, we all have full time jobs & families so we’re stuck working on weekends to get things done. I apologize to all of you who are so excited about OurBlock and its future but you’ll have to wait just a little bit longer because we’re not done yet.
If you have any feedback, contributions, ideas or feedback, feel free to contact me personally at Owner@OurBlock.TV. We would love to hear from you.
