Across Europe, the only constant is change
I had yet another fantastic money-making idea. Could have been an app, could have been a website, but people would have been queuing up to pay me money for the privilege of using/viewing my product. What could it be, you ask? My plan was to take a century’s-worth of maps showing the changing borders across Europe, and create a time-lapse sequence that would allow you to view the changes, zoom in on any given region and view developments in devolution and unification, zoom out to view the impact of wars, conquests and invasions, pause on specific years and take in the wider picture, and more. It would have been awesome. Fly in the ointment, though; someone’s beaten me to it. And stuck it up on YouTube of all places, so that’s pretty much any hope of monetising that one gone straight out the window.
