Groupon's Next Move : Name Your Own Price Deals?

Well we know the Groupon Now story. Get out of office, fire up the Groupon App, and check which restaurant has a Groupon near you right now. Thats old news.

How about if you could name your own price, for a meal or a massage? Say, a priceline for restaurants? How will that be - "I can pay 10 dollars for lunch. who can offer me lunch" - a bunch of responses - and you pick one.

Sounds like the future? It might well be. Add some SoLoMo specific stuff and there you go - the next billion dollar idea!!

Knowing the mathematics behind groupon - seems like a concept worth a try!
