Once they receive your invitation, friends and family will be able to see the details about the group gift you're organizing and easily make their contributions. All contributions go directly from the participants to you via your Paypal account. While your group gift is being funded, you can track its progress and view cool statistics about the participants.
Once each item in your group gift is 100% funded, simply use the money collected to purchase it. Wisheo provides direct links to the online retailers so you can quickly and easily complete your purchase.

Mistakes Made By Social Media Gurus
In an effort to learn from others’ mistakes, here’s a list of some all star errors in judgment from some social media all stars. I’ll lead off the order by admitting an error of my own.
Respond to all negative comments – When I, David Spark,
started being seen publically in print, TV, radio, and online I read everyone’s comments, but focused more intently on the negative ones. I wasted a lot of time putting far too much effort into defending myself to these anonymous naysayers than they put into attacking me. I soon understood that some geeks simply can’t help themselves being negative. They’ve got an obnoxious strand of DNA and must constantly try to prove themselves smarter than you.
Participate in flame wars to increase traffic – Similarly, Dana Gardner, blogger for ZDNet, admits he would engage in online arguments just to watch his Web traffic shoot up. But over time Gardner realized that flame wars don’t attract the right kind of audience. “Going to the lowest emotional common denominator to me is an ineffective way of reaching that audience. I’d rather come up with valuable insightful fresh innovative content than appeal to angry white men sitting around computers that don’t have anything else to do,” Gardner said.
Hire a voice talent for $2,000 to read a podcast for you – Paul Dunay, Global Director of Integrated Marketing at BearingPoint and prominent blogger, made a massive blunder when he decided to get into podcasting. His first show was actually a whitepaper read by a voice talent for $2,000. The resulting podcast sounded like a book on tape and he and his colleagues were horrified. That episode was never published, but the voice talent did get paid.
Send a specially selected mass mailing to your friends – Susan Bratton, co-founder and CEO of Personal Life Media, is still having a problem trying to scale individual relationships with social media. Even when she pares down her mailing list of 8,000 to a personally selected mailing of 250, she still gets nasty messages telling her to “take me off this list.”
Assume that social media doesn’t exist until you arrive – Social media strategist Chris Brogan and founder of PodCamp reached out to the New England podcasters’ bulletin board and said he was going to invite all the social media rock stars to come to Boston for Podcamp. Nobody responded to what he thought was a generous offer until he saw a response on the board that said, “There are a lot of rock stars in Boston and it’s kind of offensive you got to import them from other places.” Brogan learned from his mistake. Wherever you go on the Web realize there’s been a history. Don’t assume you know everything and discredit what’s been done before you arrived, Brogan said.

Respond to all negative comments – When I, David Spark,
started being seen publically in print, TV, radio, and online I read everyone’s comments, but focused more intently on the negative ones. I wasted a lot of time putting far too much effort into defending myself to these anonymous naysayers than they put into attacking me. I soon understood that some geeks simply can’t help themselves being negative. They’ve got an obnoxious strand of DNA and must constantly try to prove themselves smarter than you.
Participate in flame wars to increase traffic – Similarly, Dana Gardner, blogger for ZDNet, admits he would engage in online arguments just to watch his Web traffic shoot up. But over time Gardner realized that flame wars don’t attract the right kind of audience. “Going to the lowest emotional common denominator to me is an ineffective way of reaching that audience. I’d rather come up with valuable insightful fresh innovative content than appeal to angry white men sitting around computers that don’t have anything else to do,” Gardner said.
Hire a voice talent for $2,000 to read a podcast for you – Paul Dunay, Global Director of Integrated Marketing at BearingPoint and prominent blogger, made a massive blunder when he decided to get into podcasting. His first show was actually a whitepaper read by a voice talent for $2,000. The resulting podcast sounded like a book on tape and he and his colleagues were horrified. That episode was never published, but the voice talent did get paid.

Credit Karma offers a new way to track your credit score and a unique way to benefit from it
What Company Is Offering:
Credit Karma offers a new way to track your credit score and a unique way to benefit from it. For the first time you can get a truly free credit score with no hidden costs or obligations. Based on your score, you gain access to exclusive offers from companies that value your creditworthiness.
The premise of consumer Credit Scoring is that people with good credit pay their bills on time, are less likely to go into collections, and tend to waste fewer company resources overall. These factors translate to higher profitability for that company and make that customer more desirable.
How It Works:
The general idea is that any action a person takes either positive or negative, will have an inevitable equal effect in the future. Your credit score is kind of an expression of this concept; an index of your credit history: your credit karma. Credit Karma embodies the best parts of these two disparate yet similar concepts to help people stay aware of their Credit Score and gain access to exclusive deals at the same time.
Their services start with a FREE credit score. No credit card is required and no strings are attached. Return as often as you like and use their service to track your credit file and stay informed. Credit Karma believes this is a fundamental consumer right. Credit Karma will continue to provide these FREE credit scores while doing the most to protect your privacy regardless if you use our other services.

Drink Logger makes it easy to track your drinking and monitor your estimated Blood Alcohol Content
What Company Is Offering:
Drink Logger makes it easy to track your drinking and monitor your estimated Blood Alcohol Content (BAC) with plots that show your BAC over time.
How It Works:
When you log a drink, all of the alcohol will be shown in your system at that time. Since alcohol takes time to be absorbed into your system, this is a known inaccuracy in the estimate of BAC. One way to err is to log the drink once it is complete. This way the BAC from that drink will show up in your system for a longer time.
However, this will only be fair estimate if you take a while to consume the drink so that alcohol is entering your system before the drink is consumed. If you are drinking fast, or taking shots, you may want to consider logging the drink some time after it is consumed.

Thinkmap is a software platform for developing customized visualization interfaces to complex data
What Company Is Offering:
Thinkmap is a software platform for developing customized visualization interfaces to complex data. The software provides a system for crafting visualizations with structured data in order to make the information more intuitive, accessible, manageable and meaningful. Thinkmap visualizations can make relationships in the data more apparent than can traditional line or column displays and can improve understanding and discovery.
Thinkmaps are highly customizable and are deployed by companies in variety of rich applications: knowledge management, operations and workflow, network management, e-commerce, research & development, and intelligence. Via the Thinkmap Software Developer Kit, developers can quickly create their own visualizations tailored to their data and integrated with their applications. Thinkmap runs on a variety of platforms and can be deployed in a variety of ways.
How It Works:
Thinkmap enables organizations to incorporate dynamic, data-driven information visualization technology into their enterprise Web applications. Thinkmap applications allow knowledge workers to make sense of complex information in ways that traditional interfaces can't. Data that may seem too overwhelming, too multi-faceted, or too dry for engaging users comes to life inside Thinkmap visualizations, keeping knowledge workers more engaged and effective. Thinkmaps make information more intuitive and understandable, often leading to discoveries of relationships and nuance not otherwise possible.
