What Company Is Offering:
Matoumba is a very simple to use, free web application to keep track with the information that matters the most to you. It is designed to dig up automatically the information the most important to you within the feeds you suscribe to (and those you haven't!), so that you never again feel drowned or constrained by an oppressive amount of information.
How It Works:
By voting for stories you consider interesting and by rejecting those you don't, you teach Matoumba what are your fields of interests and prefered feeds. So when you come back, Matoumba will be able to tell you which information should be important to you within all the feeds you suscribed to, or even within the feeds from users who share the same interests as you. Very easy, very intuitive.
A website that sorts everyday the most relevant information to you. Vote for the news and Matoumba will learn your tastes and the information that you like the most. It is all FREE!

Entertainment Filter
What Company Is Offering:
The Filter is powered by an engine that provides a holistic approach to recommendations - filtering out irrelevant content and only filtering in content that reflects an individual’s tastes and moods through unique algorithms.
In addition to the consumer entertainment experience here at TheFilter.com, The Filter can also provide white label and co-branded solutions for content partners seeking to better match their inventory of content to their visitors’ tastes.
The Filter's core is a recommendation and discovery engine derived from a branch of Artificial Intelligence, called Bayesian mathematics. Simplistically, the engine uses an evidence model (which includes purchase, consumption and browsing data) to derive the similarity of items. When The Filter’s engine is supplied with one or more items of interest it delivers a pick-list of items that are statistically relevant by order of probability.
Unlike most tools the pick-list is fed through a number of filters to deliver the customised and fully personalised recommendations.
“The Filter aims to be the best possible blend of man and machine - a hybrid engine that filters all entertainment content to one’s own personal taste,” says Martin Hopkins, a co-founder and CSO of The Filter.

LifeLock is the industry leader in the rapidly growing field of Identity Theft Protection
What Company Is Offering:
LifeLock is the industry leader in the rapidly growing field of Identity Theft Protection.
How It Works:
They ask the credit bureaus to set free fraud alerts on your behalf. Usually, this is done through our automated systems and the alerts are set within an hour. From time to time there may be a hitch and we have to do the first one manually, usually because they have a different address on file for you. If this happens, they'll tell you right away and do what needs to be done to get the alerts set. (In case you're wondering, they don't charge anything more for this and their Total Service Guarantee is still in effect from day one.)
Unless your circumstances change and you tell us not to, every 90 days or so they ask the credit bureaus to do it again. You can do this for free if you'd prefer, but they make sure it gets done and that it gets done right. That's where the oil change analogy they were talking about kicks in.
They request that your name be removed from pre-approved credit card and junk mail lists and we keep making the requests as they expire. Statistics show that this is one of the many ways that thieves hijack identities. Plus, all that mail is just so irritating. Many of our members tell us that this alone is worth the price. If you are a do-it-yourselfer, you can do this for free, but why not let us do it for you?
They order your free credit reports on your behalf from the major credit bureaus and they are sent directly to you. They do this every year. You can also do this yourself for free .
Hassling with lost or stolen wallets is no longer a problem with WalletLock. If ever your wallet goes missing, just give them a call - anytime, anywhere - and a WalletLock specialist will help you contact each credit card, bank or document issuing company, cancel your affected accounts and complete the paperwork and steps necessary to replace your lost documents*, including your credit/debit cards, driver's license, social security card, insurance cards, checkbook - even travelers checks - at no additional cost.
