Ggoal offers a keyword-based content search service on the web. It supplies the user with links, internet addresses and multimedia content into different formats following the shared interactivity criteria.

Ggoal is based on the users-created contributions in order to increase its effectiveness. Keywords, links ad internet addresses are user-created content: that's tantamount to say that a community of people is actively involved in the production and widespread of knowledge.

Ggoal supplies users with a customized assistance through a team of administrators called Ggoal Team that control users' requests and contributions in a constant way. The Ggoal Team receives requests in real time and it ensures prompt reply through an aimed search.

How Is It Different:

Its system is not based on algorithms and mathematical formula but on the knowledge background offered by each web user.

TradeVibes, is a new startup looking to create a database of information about private companies

What Company Is Offering:
TradeVibes, is a new startup looking to create a database of information about private companies. While the company indexes its fair share of the Web 2.0-type startups it also aims to include information about many other areas of technology – such as biotech, alternative energy, and semi-conductors.

How It Works:

TradeVibes takes a community approach to indexing and organizing company information. You can add companies and edit information about those already listed on the site. You can do the same thing with company executive profiles. For example, in the following profile of AdBrite, you can see background information on the company, its management team, competitors, and related companies. On the right, TradeVibes has built in additional features so you can vote whether you are “bullish” or “bearish” on the company (do you think its prospects are good or bad), and see that its Alexa rank has slipped recently. You can also see recent news and blogs about it.

Beyond company information, there are social news features, discussion areas, job boards, and an activity stream to see the most recent additions and changes to the site.
The company has seeded in profiles for hundreds of well-known companies, but for it to really become a valuable tool for those searching for corporate information, it’s going to rely on users submitting information for the thousands of smaller startups in the tech space.
The company is founded by four former PayPal employees, angel funded by Ron Conway, and Steve Chen of YouTube fame is on the company’s board of advisors.

MYBYTES--------Music Mixer

What Company Is Offering:
Go to the Music Mixer and create original songs using their library of loops and sound effects. You can layer tracks, adjust volume and panning, and even download the songs you made as MP3 files. You can find instructions for using the mixer on the mixer page. When you're finished creating your track, you can either save it to work on later, or set rights and publish it for use in the MyBytes community.

How It Works:
Your personal profile page is where you'll view your work, your downloads, and see if other users are downloading your songs. Your profile page is also where you set "Your Rules," a series of statements regarding intellectual property rights that apply to the tracks you create. You can change your user avatar, your password, or your rules at any time.
When you create a song, you can decide whether you want to save or publish your track. If you choose to save, the song will be published to your profile page, where you can work on it later. It will not be made accessible to the MyBytes community. However, if you choose to publish your song, you are putting it into the mix of user-created songs for other users to listen to, remix, or download. You set property rights for each song you create, and you can charge other users credits to remix or download your songs. All users have the choice to either pay or not pay credits for songs they take, just like in real life. You'll get to see if other users like your tracks, and if they're giving you credit for using your creation.
In order to participate in the MyBytes community, you need to register and create your profile. Select a user name (for security reasons, please do not use your real name), choose an avatar, set your security question, and you're ready to go! You can then use the mixer, download your own or other user-created tracks, and vote in the polls.

SpeakLike, the first instant messaging service for accurate, real-time translation chat across different languages

What Company Is Offering:
SpeakLike, the first instant messaging service for accurate, real-time translation chat across different languages. You type text in your language, and others see it in theirs. Moreover, the cost is far lower than other translation services or programs.

Now, just enter your email to get your beta invite and you can begin speaking like a native.

How It Works:

SpeakLike's Human Assisted Language brings human understanding to translation this way: You send your text, a human translator checks and corrects the machine-translated text in real-time, then the people you are talking with see it in their own languages, quickly and correctly.

Because SpeakLike seamlessly integrates automated and human translation, you're able to chat right away, without needing to set up costly, time-consuming conference calls as you do using traditional interpreting services. And SpeakLike finally gives you a real alternative to 'free' machine-based translation, which is highly inaccurate and often results in costly mistakes.

With innovative technology backed by the human touch of SpeakLike, you'll be part of a world where people who speak different languages speak one language: SpeakLike.
