Startup Revolution

Startup Life
The startup life is one of equal parts hard work and serendipity. As we began to build, think about and share the tool we saw in December it morphed and moved on by. Below the poll is an explanation about why we got to the point where a name change is needed:

Hope you will VOTE, SHARE and COMMENT as we search for a name relevant to the opportunity we see

Thanks, Marty, Phil & CrowdFunde (or whatever we become :) Team

CrowdFunde Accepted Triangle Startup (TSF) Factory
Thanks to friends who wrote cards and letters and thanks to the team at Triangle Startup Factory, our Durham, NC based startup incubator, who are willing to take a risk on CrowdFUnde as we smash content marketing and crowdfunding together to see what happens.

Our TSF session starts March 10th and we hope you will join us as we share this great startup adventure.

CrowdFunde's mission is support investors, donors and shoppers by merchandising crowdfunding based on cool algorithms YOU set. Based on our incubator investor meeting today may remain a DREAM, but something will work out since the content is too cool and valuable to remain "haystacked" for much longer. 

One cool trick is the algorithms that control what gets shown where have two modes DEFAULT and FRIENDS. When Facebook is linked to a profile algorithms go into "friends mode" showing what your friends and friends of friends like with the ability to toggle back to defaults.

That little trick is cool enough I might have to fund development. Heck I might have to regardless (lol). Marty  

If you love using Scoop.it we have a job for you. CrowdFunde, a Durham NC startup, is searching for the top 10 content curators in the world. CrowdFunde is a new company dedicated to helping websites, brands and companies tap wisdom of crowds.

And we need 10 great content curators to help!
