Let's make paying multiple people at once incredibly easy!
Do you run a project or community that requires you to divide funds among a list of people? Are you hosting a contest/giveaway where you have multiple winners? Wouldn't it be cool if there were a tool that would allow you to easily send all those payments at once? I propose a new open-source 
SteemDivvy!
Except, I have zero experience with programming things on the Blockchain. I'm an idea guy, an engine starter. I know that I would use a tool like this regularly, and I'm sure many others would, too. I am able to create just about everything for the tool except its guts. As you can tell, I've already created a draft logo, and secured the
I've started a GitHub repository for the project, and would love any help that anyone is willing to give.
What will need to be able to do:
will need to be able to do: Have the user specify what account the funds are coming from (Verification could probably be done via SteemConnect after submission)
Have the user specify the total amount to be divvied, and whether the funds are STEEM or SBD.
Have the user specify who should receive a share, and how big that share should be.
Give an option for a memo to be attached to each transfer.
I feel all of this could be accomplished without even creating a login system for the site, other than using SteemConnect for payment verification. This could likely take the form of a simple one-page site that hosts the tool. With a blockchain-connected login system, we could create additional features to streamline productivity for regular users. One example might be the ability to save "templates" for different projects, containing the list of recipients and shares, allowing the user to load up the template, and quickly input a new payment to be divvied.
Let me know what you think!
Would this be a tool you could see yourself using? Do you have any suggestions to make it better? Let's come together and make it happen!

Edit:
I suppose having an idea for a project, and laying out all the details like this isn't good enough for Utopian. In order to begin an open source development project, one must be a coder, not just someone with a good idea. I was hoping to find coders for this project, but I guess If I don't go learn some code myself, I can't use Utopian to develop it, at which point, I won't need help building the damn thing... Whatever. I'm going on vacation.
