George Zimmerman to launch "Brand Z" self-defence products, says brother

Now his brother has proposed that he market a range of home-security goods, aimed at women with names such as the Z Bar, the Z Rock and The Z Beam.

One is to secure sliding doors, he told GQ magazine. One is to put in the front door. The light is to carry and is designed by George. It has a little alarmyou know, Help me, help me!

But his ultimate goal was turn George into a reality-TV star, the magazine wrote.

"I learn a lot from watching Keeping Up with the Kardashians, he said, envisioning a show in which his brother would turn up as a surprise guest, Candid Camera-style.

George Zimmerman has been involved in a series of brushes with the law since his acquittal, including his arrest for allegedly threatening a girlfriend, and is reported to be heavily in debt, owing more than $2.5 million in legal fees.

Family members have gone into hiding because of death threats and are unable to find work, they said.

'Ello' Aims For A Return To Ad-Free Social Networking

Ello is a new, invitation-only social network that aims to thrive and survive on a business model that does not include selling user data or advertising.

Vermont is known for its green pastures, farmsteads and roads free of billboards. The founders of the new social network Ello live in the state, and they want to bring Vermont-like serenity to the Internet.

"We set out to prove that a social network will survive and thrive that doesn't have a business model of selling ads to its users," says CEO and co-founder Paul Budnitz.

Budnitz owns a bicycle company in Vermont and also founded Kidrobot, which makes high-end art toys. He says Ello's creators initially launched the site for their circle of friends. They wanted a clean online space to exchange large images and long-form text.

The site has been growing steadily for about a year, he says, but that changed last week, when news stories about a group of disenchanted Facebook users mentioned Ello as an alternative and set off a stampede of interest.

"We're getting about 40,000 signups and requests an hour ... so it's a lot," Budnitz says.

You need an invitation from a friend to use Ello, and that amps up the allure. Many Ello users, like 24-year-old Charity Walden, say they joined simply out of curiosity.

"I use Facebook, Twitter, Tumblr, Pinterest, Snapchat," Walden says, and now Ello rounds out that group. "I think it's really cool to be there at the beginning and see how it's developed."

The spike of interest in a new social network also points to intensifying concerns over issues like data mining, online bullying and the protection of privacy. Users can't make their Ello accounts private, but the founders say that's coming soon. And Ello's stated mission is to be profitable without selling user data a claim that attracts scrutiny. Once it was revealed that Ello received venture capital money in January, the critics went to town.
