WEBSITES TO CHECK OUT
The best visual search engine we've seen, a secondhand marketplace for moms, and a charitable fitness social network
Viewzi: Online search has never looked so good. With 18 different categories to view search results, ranging from Site Information View to Power Grid View, Viewzi is a customized search aggregator with features far superior to those of its competitors. And unlike other visual search engines such as SearchMe, you can look up items across multiple platforms. Type in the name of a movie hitting the theaters next weekend and not only will you find reviews, news, and photos, but also videos, songs, and maybe even recipes!
hand-me-downs: The current financial crisis has everyone worried, and we're seeing a lot of moms looking for new ways to save on the clothes, toys, and strollers that their children quickly outgrow, lose interest in, or just can't use any more. With this innovative new site from mompreneur Norah Weinstein, mothers now have an easy way to buy, sell, give away for free or donate their gently used items.
Plus 3 Network: You don't have to be a marathon runner to exercise for charity. This new fitness-based social network allows exercise buffs to do good while getting in shape. After signing up, site members get to choose the cause they would like to support, upon which Plus 3 then pairs them with a corporate sponsor who makes donations according to the amount of activity miles completed.
