What Company Is Offering:

Organic Incentive--User Generated Marketing
What Company Is Offering:
Organic: like organic search marketing (SEO), Incentive: the natural incentive visitors have to share your widget because of its compelling content. They provide organic incentives to market your product.
How It Works:
Organic Incentive is the Clearspring killer. They provide tools so users with absolutely no programming experience can create viral widgets. All you do is enter the URL of your flash widget, and drag and drop a "share" button on to it, customize it, and customize the popup with all the share options that appears when your users click "share."
They have a widget ad system in the works, as well as complete widget creation for all sorts of widgets, media players, widgets with forms, chat rooms, messaging widgets, chat widgets, comment widgets, etc. Our system also lets you combine them together, or upload your own widget and combine it with that.
The main thing though, regardless of however many flash widgets you can drag, drop and customize, is THE CUSTOMIZEABILITY! It's almost endless, and for the first time you can create completely custom branded flash widgets without knowing actionscript
You simply put your widget into the marketplace, choose how much you want to pay for every time someone clicks & "share" on the widget. Then top bloggers scoop it up to make some extra bread, and they get paid every time one of their loyal readders "shares" it. It's a payperpost sorta twist....The good part though is that you don't need to pay any time it is shared after this first degree of separation (or wait, is that the 0th degree...well whatever).

Yokl’d.com is a "Best Of" local business ranking social platform
What Company Is Offering:
Yokl’d.com is a "Best Of" local business ranking social platform that is 100% compiled and commented on by users. The idea is simple - the more times a business gets "Yokl’d" (voted) the higher in the rankings it will be listed.
How It Works:
Share local knowledge with a social network of friends, family and business associates. Discover the best local businesses recommended and ranked by the user community. Benefit from trusted friend’s personal pages to see what they recommend
Never get lost -- detailed maps pinpoint each location. Add favorite local businesses to the site. Vote through a 1-click process for preferred local businesses. Build and maintain a portfolio of elite local businesses that can be shared with others. Post positive or negative comments about a business
Rank user comments based on usefulness and accuracy.
How Is It Different:
Local search sites like CitySearch and Yelp! provide user generated content for local businesses using a controversial five-star rating system. Users debate the use of the five-star rating because people within the general population have very different tastes. This ranking system provides no way to tell if a group of people ranking a business shares the same tastes as a specific user. While,Yokl’d provides a better solution for the discriminating consumer, business traveler, or weekend connoisseur.

bizot.ch --Social Networking News
What Company Is Offering:
bizot.ch is whatever you want it to be - a news site, an information source, a social networking community... With more things to gradually be added you won't need to look at any other website.
How It Works:
bizot.ch gives you power and enables you, the reader, to edit the news however you want. So, if you think we've been too harsh by referring to Pete Doherty as a junkie scumbag you can change it to something more pleasant. Equally, if you think junkie scumbag is not harsh enough for the Babyshambles singer and can think of something a lot worse to call him, go for it! The world is your oyster.
bizotching is easy. Once you've signed up you can get crackin! Find a story you want to bizotch. Read the story, which may be either the previous person's version of the news or our original source (you can click on the "view original" or "view latest bizotch" button to alternate between the two versions). Once you feel inspired enough, click on the main bulk of the text. This will then change into an edit box where the magic happens.
Re-write the story however you feel. Change words, add sentences, insert paragraphs, heighten subjectiveness, scrap it all and start the whole thing over. The only thing we ask of you is to loosely stick to the main story as an inspiration point.
