WikiPik is the place where consumers and professionals alike connect and exchange opinions and data
What Company Is Offering:
wiki" means it's collaborative, and "pik" stands for three things: "pick" as in "pick the best", "peak" meaning "top" or "best", and "PIK" = "Payment In Kind" which stands for WikiPik's reward point system . WikiPik is also a word that is easy to pronouce in just about any language, emphasizing WikiPik's global reach..

How Is It Different:
Meaningful, Bias Compensated Rankings WikiPik uses a novel ranking algorithm, to display information in the order that is relevant to you. DeltaRank™ is different in that it can compensate for bias in users ratings, by basing its scoring on how contributors perceive quality differences between items rather than just averaging uncorrelated opinions.

No more sifting through pages and pages of review text to tediously extract the information you need. WikiPik finally has it all at your fingertips!
Performance Database Beyond subjective opinions on quality aspects, users can also share own physical performance measurements, such as such as battery life or power consumption, in a plethora of quantities and units, and convert them between US and metric. Such way you can use WikiPik as a collaborative research database, go beyond whitewashed manufacturer's specs and get your hands on real world data.
Open Structure WikiPik allows you not only contribute content, but also collaborate on how this content is represented and organized. If something is not in the database yet, simply add it!

Industry Trends Exercise
Why is Wayne Gretzky one of pro hockey's all-time greats? Gretzky says the trick is "skating to where the puck's going to be, not where it is." Anticipating his teammates' moves and competitors' reactions, he dynamically positions himself to take the shot. This time-tested strategy landed Gretzky among the National Hockey League's leading scorers for over ten years.
Your company can glide to the top using a similar approach, dynamically positioning itself to anticipate the market's direction and competitors' responses. That's one way strategic planning gives you an edge. Unlike operational planning, strategic planning focuses on where you need to be in three to five years.
Failing to look ahead is like skating blindfolded. You never know how close you are to the goal.
Understanding industry trends There are various approaches to understanding trends in your industry-gathering and analyzing secondary data already available, for example, or collecting primary data from your customers, suppliers, and other key stakeholders.
Too many companies overlook one of the best and most convenient sources of industry insight-the management team. If your managers are up on your industry, you have a storehouse of information at your fingertips.
You can do the same Industry Trends Exercise that enables our clients to tap the knowledge and expertise of their managers. Through this structured exercise the management team
Identifies and prioritizes key trends that are likely to affect the company - for all key stakeholder groups within the industry (customers, suppliers, governments, and others).
Outlines strategies to take advantage of favorable trends.
Develops strategies to minimize the impact of unfavorable trends.
If your industry is in flux, facing environmental changes that could affect your future success, try the Industry Trends Exercise. It will help you reach your goals as you grow and your industry evolves.

Cebase is a web based database that allows you to manage and share your data on the web
What Company Is Offering:
Cebase is a web based database that allows you to manage and share your data on the web. In cebase your data is stored in lists. A list is much like a table in a traditional database like Microsoft Access or FileMaker but without the hassles of having to create primary keys, foreign keys or any other low-level database object.
How It Works:
To get started you first have to create an application. You can create an application by clicking on the Create New Application button that is located on your account home page. In the page that is loaded, enter a name for your application and click Create Application to let cebase create your application.
You can either create a new list by entering a list name and defining one or more fields - or - by importing your data. If you have no data to import and want to start from scratch then select Create a New List. Enter a descriptive term (like contacts or tasks) for the items in your list. The term you enter should be the plural noun that best describes the data you want to keep track of. If for example you want to keep track of your contacts then you should enter the plural noun Contacts. Next define the information you want to store for each item in your list. You can do so by entering one or more field names and selecting an appropriate data type. Some example field names are First Name, Last Name, Street, etc... If you are done entering field names then click the Create List button to create your list.

VideoEgg, the video and rich media ad network that guarantees brand engagement, today introduced AdFrames for mobile
What Company Is Offering:
VideoEgg is a new kind of rich media advertising network that guarantees brand engagement. The network is composed of over 80 million uniques across more than 200 leading video, gaming and social network sites as well as social applications, bringing outstanding consumer reach and engagement to its advertising partners. An advertising innovator, VideoEgg was the first to commercialise interactive advertising overlays onto video, an approach that is being widely adopted by the industry.
New Updates:
VideoEgg, the video and rich media ad network that guarantees brand engagement, today introduced AdFrames for mobile, a performance-based ad offering that enables advertisers to distribute invitation-based, expandable video or rich media ads to iPhone users. Nikon is among the first brands to leverage AdFrames’ mobile distribution as a measurable way to promote its CoolPix and D90 cameras and reach highly engaged consumers.
What Is AdFrame:
The AdFrames solution distributes video or rich media through an innovative, expandable ad unit that can be dynamically formatted to fit any size on a page, widget or online game. This flexibility will enable publishers to better integrate the ad message into their environment. Importantly, Adframes will align incentives across the delivery network by compensating publishers on user engagement. Engagement doesn’t begin until a user rolls over the ad, and the AdFrame Invitation has expanded into an overlay. AdFrames includes a countdown during the roll-over to ensure the user is not engaging with the ad inadvertently.

Venture Capital Is Still Flowing ?
A ray of hope in the hard-knocks economy: Despite few foreseeable exits, early stage investors are still making bets in a handful of promising, high-growth sectors.
In fact, venture capitalists have put only slightly fewer dollars at stake as they did this same time last year, before the financial crisis had gained any traction. In the three quarters ended Sept. 30, venture-capital investment was down just 4%, to $22.3 billion, versus the same period in 2007, according to VentureOne, an industry tracker.
Compare that to the relatively comatose market for initial public offerings, which tends to offer the juiciest exits for VC funds. Measured in dollar terms, the 50 IPOs in the first three quarters raised just $30.5 billion, compared with the 261 deals that yielded $60.5 billion in the first three quarters of last year. Only eight companies went public in the last three months, raising a mere $1 billion.
Some VCs say the difficult market has made it easier to find promising companies. "There are [fewer] tourists right now who are just pitching," says Guy Kawasaki, managing director at Garage Technology Ventures, an early stage venture capital fund. "That yields a better entrepreneur."

When you upload you digital stuff to Sendeo you can enjoy it anywhere with their embedded flash viewers. You can share and work from any computer public or private because there's nothing to download — it’s all in your browser, on the web, and secure.
When you want a link to create a unique website address (URL) which can be safely accessed by anyone, there are a lot of online places to turn, but none as attractive or easy to use as the one-click publishing feature of Sendeo.

NextBee's word of mouth marketing platform
What Company Is Offering:
NextBee's word of mouth marketing platform is built by analyzing tools and interface components needed for successful word of mouth marketing campaigns.
How It Works:
You sign up with us and immediately get access to your business account.
If you decide to offer awards for referring users, you create your own specific award program by defining criteria such as how many conversions required for award, how the award is calculated (% of item price, fixed prize, a coupon, or even no award).
Through the Setup page in your account, you have access to html code snippets that you should host on your site. In these code snippets you substitute product id/campaign id, referral url with your specific parameters.
You include Javascript files from their server (similar to what you do if you are tracking visitors through Google analytics/Omniture). The Javascript automatically replaces the html snippets with widgets for reviews/review counts, and referral buttons, all of which can be customized.
When the user sends a referral, they use your specified referral URL and append tracking information to it. This enables us to track the performance of these referrals and associate conversions with appropriate referrals.
Whenever a successful conversion happens, you notify us about it by making a simple Javascript call or URL redirection. This does not affect your website flow or functionality.
Once they get the conversion notification, they make the sanity check, associate it with right users, calculate awards, notify users, and update the campaign analytics available in your account.
