Last month, Jeff Jarvis wondered “what a restaurant run on Googlethink might look like.” In Sunday’s WaPo, our pal Jane Black wrote about a restaurant-in-the-making that might qualify: Elements, a raw food restaurant concept that has been developed, designed and and marketed by 386 community members.
“Most businesses are started because you have a great idea, and you take it out to the public to see if they like it,” says Linda Welch, 49, the Washington businesswoman who launched and is funding the Elements project. “This is the opposite. We’re finding out what people want and doing it.”
Will be very interesting to see if and how this works as an operating restaurant. Anybody know of anything else like this out there?
