What Company Is Offering:
At MyStudiyo you can create interactive quiz content for your website or blog quickly and easily. Simply add your own content to our DIY (Do-It-Yourself) quiz templates and create a customized quiz for your audience. After you’ve created your quiz, copy and paste a few lines of HTML into your website and you’re ready to go!
How It Works:
Go to their Create Quiz page. Select which type of quiz you would like to create and click the "create one now" button. If you already registered, you must be logged in to create a quiz. If you’re not registered, you can register in about 10 seconds for free.
You can add as many questions as you like. However, it is important to remember that the more questions and the longer the quiz, the less likely your visitors will reach the end. In the User-Can-Add quiz, that is less of an issue, but if you are creating a “User Response” quiz, you will probably have something at the end of your quiz that you want your visitors to see.

AirBedandBreakfast.com is the fun way to stay with a local when traveling
What Company Is Offering:
AirBedandBreakfast.com is the fun way to stay with a local when traveling. You can earn money by sharing your space, and save money when traveling. The original AirBed & Breakfast is an unofficial landmark in the South of Market district of San Francisco.
How It Works:
The listings are generally more affordable and personable. Instead of staying in a big city by yourself, you have someone to personally accommodate you, and show you around. You may even make a new friend!
They've spent countless hours crafting a travel site that takes to the "Book it" button in just three clicks. Simply (1) search your city, (2) find a listing, and (3) book your room using Amazon payments.
It's free to sign up and create a listing. The price of listings vary by city and amenities offered by the host. In the end, it's usually less than the price of a hotel room.
Upon contributing a listing, hosts authorize AB&B to transfer money into their account at any time. When a guest makes a reservation, the guest is authroizing AB&B to charge the stated amount. On the day arrival, unless either party cancels, the guest will be charged and the money will be transfered directly to the host's account. A transaction fee of $5/night is charged to the guest and sent directly to AB&B. All billing is secured through Amazon so that no transaction can take place without explicit approval from you.

GiftGen is for gift ideas generator
What Company Is Offering:
GiftGen is the creation of two ex-college buddies both now in their thirties. The site took over 2 years to develop, which involved research of gift ideas, websites and high street shops.

Gift ideas range from free ideas like ‘Wash their car Voucher’, to top end ideas such as ‘A trip on the orient express’ and ethical ideas like ‘Some chicks for a 3rd world family’.
The Gift Ideas Generator was recently featured as the No. 1 'most useful shopping site' (beating eBay & Kelkoo) in the Telegraph's '101 most useful websites' article. They've also been featured on Radio 2's 'Website of the day' and on GMTV, where it was used for christmas gift ideas. They were also featured in the 'Best new websites' section of 'Web User' magazine , where they received 4 stars out of 5.

TopicR is a new way of content communications for email, or you may think of it as a "Gmail for content"
What Company Is Offering:
TopicR is a new way of content communications for email, or you may think of it as a "Gmail for content". TopicR means Topicr Rich.
Email is one of the greatest tools invented. It's very useful for message exchange. But it is not optimized for dealing with content such as attachments. It's slow to send and hard to consume. Email messages and attachments are also difficult to organize. These are just some of the daily inconviniences.
In addition, email overloading is another pain to most of us. Besides spam, unwanted emails from the people we know could contribute to the pain in great deal. For instance, your friends added you into the loop to discuss something that you are not that into or vice versa. The problem here is that a recipient has no practical option to block unwanted emails from someone he/she knows.
Unique Features:
Separating clumsy attachments from emails and make the email messages as light as they should be.
Processing the attachment contents so that you can view them quickly and easily, without downloading, opening and storing locally.
Aggregating communications and contents into topics so that you can only read the ones that matter to you.
Tracking the communication activities for confirmation and secure delivery.
Reducing irrelevant emails reaching your inbox by filtering out the topics that you are not interested.
