FundedByMe have used their crowdsourcing platform to select five of the participants to feature for pitches. Paying by SMS allows to pick the winner of the pitch.
Live Pitches
We heard pitches from Shpare, Uppa, Omnicloud, Skuffa
UpUp - small gifts available for pickup in the retail chain, paid via mobile phone.
You pick a product, pay with mobile phone or cc, and the one you have decided to UPUP gets upped.
Shpare - Automatic matching. You fill out a profile, fill in keywords, and you are matched with a list of people to meet. If the other person is interested, the time is set up for you. The business model is to sell the service to conferences, free for the end user.
Shoot It Live helps newspapers livepublish photos and video clips.
Omnicloud - scalable user-friendly cloud hosting solution
Skuffa share your present location with your friends on the web.
