$100,000 Deadline This Friday: Amazon Startup Challenge

Amazon.com has a $100,000 prize available for the best startup using its AWS Web services (storage, hosting, etc., for what seems to me to be amazingly attractive pricing and equally attractive peace of mind — after all, it’s Amazon).

The bad news is that this thing closes Friday.

Click this link to go to the page and fill in your entry. Amazon is asking for basic name and address info plus several simple text entries.

1. A summary of your idea.
2. What stage you are?
3. How you’re using the Amazon Web services?
4. What is the problem you solved?
5. Who is your target customer?
6. Who is your competition?

From now until Friday is plenty of time. Right?
