eBay + A Stock Market = Wigix

If there ever would be an eBay 2.0 (or an eBay for the Web 2.0 generation), here it is. Wigix, which stands for “WantItGotItExchange,” is a newly launched service based around the idea of a community-driven marketplace. The site takes the idea of eBay — a community-powered auctions market — a step further, by adding a stock market-esque element of being able to “buy” and “sell” the product at a price determined by the market.

    Freebase -- Open Shared Database of The World's Knowledge

    What is Freebase?

    Freebase is an open database of the world’s information. It is built by the community and for the community—free for anyone to query, contribute to, build applications on top of, or integrate into their websites.

    How's Freebase different from Wikipedia? From GoogleBase?

    Wikipedia and Freebase both appeal to people who love to use and organize information.
    The difference lies in the way they store information. Wikipedia arranges
    information in the form of articles. Freebase lists facts and statistics. Freebase’s list form is good not only for people who like to glance at facts, but also for people who want to use the data to build other web sites and software. Information in article form can’t be reused in the same way (though, obviously, articles are awesome for other purposes).
