Gloveler is a site offering rental estate services to people around the world. The service is free for both the travelers and hosts in the way that the owners can advertise their accommodations and prospective customers can search and rent the same.
The owners can post ads detailing all the facilities and perks which would be expected by a customer. There are no up front charges for posting ads. The site works on a commission basis of 10 percent which will be collected once a booking is made by a customer. Once a booking is made, the contact details are released and the parties can contact each other directly.
The site uses a secure payment system like paypal which allows the funds to be transferred to the owners in an efficient, fast and secure way. This could well be the next big idea in the travel industry.

Chikkle is a recent entrant into the social networking web. Sign up and you get to make blog posts, write articles and start discussions. I think with so many websites it is better to start in a new community as people will get to know each other much quicker than all the thousands on other social sites.
The site is very lightweight. The current user base is around 130 but should increase given the hype of networking. Users can opt for using the Chikkle AdTouch technology which allows them to display advertisements on their pages and earn revenues. Now that is one incentive that has to attract people. Lets see if the monetary incentive can generate enough buzz to get Chikkle off the ground.

So you have accounts on all the major social networking sites; you have several blogs and you keep tabs on Flickr. In short, you have a plethora of sites to keep a lookout for. If you feel that keeping them in order is getting difficult and you want everything organized in an easy way, zooity is the place you should go to.
This resource allows you to manage all your profiles from a single place. According to them, you can call zooity a centralized public profile resource. The benefit is that all you have to give is the zooity profile link and everyone can see all the sites where you have profiles listed on the zooity page ready to be visited. I am sure the site will grow bigger once you see the benefits of its services and the ease of management which it provides.
