Sportsbone is a free online sports network created for sports fans by sports fans

What Company Is Offering:
Sportsbone is a free online sports network created for sports fans by sports fans. Sportsbone offers original programming on a diverse line-up of channels, ranging from a weekly NFL pick’em show on SportsBrick to player parodies on SportsBurn.

How It Works:
At Sportsbone, members are invited to share their videos, pictures and blogs, and users will be awarded points for their interaction on the network. This year, the team with the most points will be rewarded with Sportsbone’s first-ever ultimate tailgate experience. As the Sportsbone community grows, they will add great prizes such as sports tickets, memorabilia and more.

How Is It Different:

Unlike traditional sports networks, Sportsbone offers Monday morning quarterbacks the opportunity to get off the sideline and into the game by submitting their own content to the Sportsbone network.

Action Method Online is a radically different approach to productivity, designed to simplify project management and life

What Company Is Offering:
Action Method Online is a radically different approach to productivity, designed to simplify project management and life.
All of life can be divided into "projects" - the categories we use in our minds to separate and make sense of what we need to accomplish (e.g. "the party I'm planning," "client X," "event Y," "finances"). The Action Method helps you manage your projects starting with the most basic elements - always with an emphasis on action.

Unique Features:

Action Steps
Action Steps are tasks that need to be completed. Each Action Step should start with a verb: "Call Y," "Follow up with X," "Buy a gift for Z."

References
References are notes, links, files, sketches - any information related to a project that gives context to your Action Steps.

Backburners
Backburners are the brilliant ideas that you want to come back to later, but are not yet actionable.

Discussions
Discussions enable you to manage ongoing conversations across all of your projects with anyone that works with you. All relevant communications (shared documents, solutions to problems, feedback, decisions) are in one place.

Events
Events are the key occasions/meetings/milestones/etc toward which you (and your team) are working. Events can be used to coordinate deadlines for Action Steps.
