Comment on Ask HN: Got a site that could be massively viral then fade -- how do I cash in?

Charlie Sheen? It's already been done.

http://livethesheendream.com/

If not, that site is filled with good ideas.

That site is in a story on OK Magazine - http://www.okmagazine.com/2011/03/charlie-sheen-quotes-live-...

3 other such sites are listed in the comments. I think he missed the boat already.

No question I'm late to the game, but I suppose I'm just banking on the, "it's a big internet," notion -- thanks for pointing this out, though!

Always execution. It CAN beat out the first movers. If you can make this work, please detail it more in the future.

Didn't REALLY think I was going to get much past you folks....

It is Sheen related, at least, but has a better domain name (IMHO) and a different spin.

We'll see, I reckon, we'll see. Thanks!

I'd say if you have an idea you have to act super fast...the whole Sheen topic could be dead in a month

You never know with Mr. Sheen. Now selling his tweets (or shopping them): http://www.google.com/search?sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8... http://blogs.forbes.com/chrisbarth/2011/03/02/charlie-sheens...

Edit: This IS a man who demanded a raise post-controversy of the prostitute being locked in a bathroom. This could just be the beginning. As well as a great viral bid to capitalize on. http://www.watchmojo.com/blog/film/2011/02/28/charlie-sheen-...

I agree. I've got it built (6 hours from conception...) -- gonna let it stew over night, see how I feel in the morning, and start pushing it.

Thanks for the advice!
