Bluedroplet is a startup endeavour of Jonathan Brown (drupal.org profile). It seeks to enable content creators to generate revenue from their fans through social media.
It is being built by using as many existing open source Drupal components as possible and by extending and creating components where necessary.
The purpose of Bluedroplet Consulting is to bootstrap the Bluedroplet project financially, and also to directly fund the development of open source Drupal components that clients and Bluedroplet share a need for.
Jonathan is currently based in Melbourne.
