- Buzka POPNets are hosted web applications, businesses integrate with their website to help customers build social networks focused on finding and sharing product-related information and experiences. Unlike other social network applications the POPNet interface is customized to incorporate the sponsors branding, and presents the information consumers share as a structured and branded website. POPNets build consumer loyalty and market penetration by creating branded social networking and viral marketing applications.
- Market Opportunity
- Nielsen reports “the recommendation of someone else remains the most trusted source of information when consumers decide which products and services to buy”. Buzka POPNets will compete in the multi-billion-dollar online advertising markets by offering a product that leverages the power of social networking in consumer purchasing decisions.
- DEMO Says
- Buzka blends the right mix of technology and user-generated content to create a powerful human-powered search tool. The annotated link collections gain or lose ranking based on community engagement with the content. This user-engagement model should provide for a more powerful – and more profitable – advertising environment because ads are shown in the viewer’s context.

Nice presentation. I've enjoyed observing your progress, and it's a treat to see how well developed your flexible data base concept has become.

Awesome. I can easily see how companies would jump on their own branded version of this. I'm planning a holiday at the moment and I can see this being a big help. Plenty of hostels out there, but I want one recommended by someone, not a random one that turns out to be in the middle of now where.
Go the aussies!
