overdogg – Online Community Centered Around User-Sponsored Competitions
http://overdogg.com/

overdogg is an online community centered around user-sponsored competitions. overdogg pioneers the online buyer’s market by developing a Web-based community in which buyers and providers meet in an efficient and entertaining competition-style format to fill personal and business needs. Whether it’s a homeowner needing a tree removed from their yard, the mother needing ideas and planners for her daughter’s wedding, a 13-year-old boy searching for a lost puppy, a police investigator trying to solve a crime, an entrepreneur posting a reward for the market data he needs, or a bachelor needing a date for his upcoming class reunion, anyone can stage an ad-hoc competition to enlist their millions of users across the web to help them obtain what it is they desire. overdogg is part of the Semantic Web (capital – S) movement, which encourages people to create, publish and share metadata and use open standards. They use it to enhance match making between buyer needs and service provider offers. overdogg is masterminded by Semantic Web visonaries Kingsley Idehen (blog) and Sherman Monroe (blog), and is jointly developed by their respective interests: OpenLink Software and Monrai Technologies.
