Things like people getting embarrassed, people getting into defeated situations etc represented in a , , witty, comic, wacky manner.

Sounds like an interesting angle, itssri. Do you have plans on how to monetise such a site?

I'm not sure everyone will automatically grasp what "Licked.in" is about. Thefore, I think you'd need to market your idea/brand a bit.

Best of luck!

Yes, you are right - in a country where a minister gets Licked.in for a harmless tweet about the cattle-class and holy-cows it would take a bit of effort to get the name across, but I m sure it's catchy and memorable and hope that Rick would notice it one day and hopefully we would be able to increase the premium on humor in this country. I also hope to attract quite a bit of US and UK traffic.

A brilliant author has agreed to spare his weekends for this site and I am looking for a graphic artist. We hope to be able to buy our weekend drinks with private sponsors.

Well it sounds like you're getting everything under control! That's great. Let us know when the website officially launches...

Hi,

Licked.in is now up officially. Needs some more graphics though. We also came up with the idea of paid contributions. Please see detail at the site.

Thanks,
Sri.

Sri, no amount of money will make me part with my stories about the comical situations I've landed myself in. Seriously though, I like the theme of your site, and I'll keep an eye out for some humourous stories. I enjoy having a good laugh, and hope your site does well.
