Ad Astral Podcast, Episode 1: Bid - Shownotes
Submitted by DJ Burnham on Sunday 5th January 2009 - (Bid was written in October 2005)
Most people have have bought or sold something via a famous Internet auction site, including me.
I fancied the idea of imagining what would happen if a similar site expanded its horizons to distant planets and decided to combine that with my own love of gardening.
The idea of a universal emporium of goods came to mind, with 'CredTran' taking the place of PayPal.
