p2p web search.



PeerRank is a newly developed ranking algorithm. FAROO takes the user behavior when viewing a page into consideration for ranking. This is done automatically, without requiring a manual rating from the user. Thus for the first time the user as audience of a page also decides about its ranking. With previous ranking methods only the site owners determined the page rank, which were based on the linking of web pages among each other



Putting the ranking on a much wider base leads to a democratized, user centric ranking, while resistant against manipulation. For the first time the users decide themselves, which results are most important. In the respect this is a kind of social search, but omitting the existing drawbacks. Not only people known to the user are involved into the ranking, but all FAROO users. No registration is required, and no user profile or search history is stored at a central server.

A P2P poll system lets fans submit predictions on behalf of their favorite sports "experts."


FanIQ is a new type of sports site that empowers sports fans to be sports experts. For the first time, sports fans can accumulate a wide variety of statistics to prove their sports knowledge. Individually, fans compete to provide the most accurate predictions, submit the best news articles and write the best blogs. Collectively, this competition results in the best sports content from across the Web and proprietary “Wisdom of Crowds” data.

FanIQ is challenging the traditional sources of sports expertise by bringing accountability to the world of sports. FanIQ has developed a proprietary peer to peer poll system and a wiki-like system to let fans submit predictions on behalf of their favorite sports "experts." For the first time, it’s easy to pull together opinions from a wide variety of sources as evidenced by the 8,000,000 sports opinions and predictions that have been collected so far.
