10e20 reviews a company called Killer Startups:

Who are these talented content foragers? Well, it could be you, me or your co-worker in the next desk. It is all member based submissions and reviews.

According to Killer Startups’ “about” page:

KillerStartups.com is a user driven internet startups community. Entrepreneurs, investors, and bloggers are staying informed on up-and-coming internet startups using our blog platform, where internet entrepreneurs submit their startup to see what others think about it.

Our vision:
“Tapping the wisdom of crowds to find the next internet big thing.”
We deeply believe in the power of crowds, and we want to put it to good use by detecting in an early stage what’s going to be big.

History and Development:
After acquisitions such as the ones of MySpace and YouTube, and success stories such as Kayak, PriceGrabber, Facebook and many others, everybody started looking for “the next big thing” on the internet.

A new wave began!

We believe “the next YouTube” is going to be somewhere here, on KillerStartups.com. That’s our goal. We aim to provide you with that info right at the birth of the startup, when it’s only a promise. It will be up to you to detect it and do something with that information. We believe our community will be able to spot “the next YouTube”, and in order to achieve this goal, we are providing what we believe to be the right tools for this kind of discovery.

It doesn’t take a lot to realize that in universities around the world, young entrepreneurs have started talking compulsively about creating “the next big thing”. In New York, San Francisco and the world over, investors are having lunches just talking about it.

Something is clear: entrepreneurs want to hit it big with “the next big thing” and investors want to finance it.

KillerStartups.com aims to help them both by reviewing up-and-coming internet startups right on the spot, right at their birth…(more)

    ...also watch for:

    In the last WWF Survey, there were a number of Web 2.0 needs expressed, and we have been looking at options for meeting as many of those needs as possible. One of the suggestions submitted was to use already existing online programs, to avoid the expense and time of having to "reinvent the wheel" (Thanks, Dr. Bill!).

    In that spirit, we are providing links to two great affordable resources online - One to help with basic computer skills, and one which is a wiki dedicated to Thriving Online, below. FHK is currently focusing specifically on developing social networking courses. Once we have accomplished that, if there is still a need for more focused training in the more technical areas, we may begin working on developing those courses, as we are able.

    We are still looking for online resources for SEO and MMO which are affordable, practical, and preferably operated by right-minded individuals, so if you have suggestions, please let me know.

    Meanwhile, check these out:

    Ed2Go: "The Earthnet Institute is a non-profit research institute. It partnered with Education To Go (Ed2Go), a Division of Thomson Learning, Inc. to offer highly interactive noncredit online continuing education courses that you can take entirely over the Internet. All courses include expert instructors, many of whom are published authors. Online courses are affordable, fast, convenient, and geared just for you. Explore the catalog, Click Now! [Many courses available for $89 each]

    EightWeeks: This is an awesome wiki developed by Leslie Graves and the Lucy Burns Institute, to "help advocates of liberty and markets thrive online." There's an eight-week (hence the name!) "Thriving Online" course, plus a plethora of additional resources for online collaboration. There's a ton of information about wikis, and the program itself is a fantastic model for how a wiki can be used. It is funded by the Lucy Burns Institute, and is free to members. If you are interested, please send an e-mail to me (jennsierra@gmail.com), and I can get you more information, and send you invite.

    Stay tuned for more information about courses we will be offering Conservative Networking Online!

    Obama, the Narcissist at the Wailing Wall

    ...For a few days people have been sniping at the Jr. Senator from Illinois, saying that he thinks he is already president, they are wrong. Yesterday when he visited the Kotel (the "Wailing Wall" ) he proved that he thinks he is already GOD. He took the Holiest Place in the world to the Jews, and one of the holiest place to Christians and turned it into a crass campaign stop...(Yid with Lid)

    An Interview With Kathleen Parker, Author Of "Save The Males"

    John: Now, the average left-wing feminist response to your book is probably akin to, "Ah, men have the advantage in every way. Why would anyone need to 'save the males?'" What would you say to that? Kathleen: You're exactly right. I get a lot of that and what they point out generally is that men head most of the corporations and men dominate in the Congress. While that is statistically true, what I try to do in Save the Males is show where our current trends are leading...(Right Wing News)
