Trendio.com
Trendio.com is reported on in the Wall Street Journal today. Similar to Google Trends, but with a twist, Trendio gives every user $10,000 in play money to purchase shares of words. As the popularity of the words increase in the news media (based on Yahoo! News sources) the shares’ value increases. Users’ portfolios of shares are ranked daily based on their value. Neat!
