Clickpass is an application which makes OpenID easy to use and brings the benefits of single-sign-on to everyone. Over 60% of us use the same password on every site we visit. All of us have been locked out of somewhere at some time and every day we’re bombarded with emails enticing us to give away our credentials to would-be attackers.

Clickpass is built to solve that, to bring you the convenience of a single password but with the reassurance of a company whose sole job it is to look after you and your security. Over time you will see Clickpass on more and more sites. As that happens, you’ll start to forget the fear of forgetting which password you signed up with and experience instead the freedom to do what you want to do, when you want to do it.

Business Standard and research firm IDC recently posted a reality check on web 2.0 start ups in India, according to them, majority of Indian Web 2.0 start ups don’t really have a real business model and are struggling for both revenues and investments.

It’s a shiny, new dance floor, but how many can dance? The Web 2.0 market in India is still struggling for direction and funding, though the start-up scene in the Indian consumer space has been vibrant. Yet, the number of Web 2.0 companies focused on the enterprise or business space can be counted on one’s fingers.

A majority of players are active in areas like social networking sites (SNS), blogging, and document and multimedia sharing in the consumer space. A mere 12 of the 67 India-focussed websites studied by research firm IDC have a clear enterprise or business-driven model to their operations, while 55 have a consumer focus.

The Whoa Show makes activity-driven video shows that only star the audience. The Orange County, California-based media company will develop shows for various platforms, beginning with the web and expanding to mobile and beyond.

First in Action, a never-ending Internet show, is scheduled to go live on New Year’s Day. Set up as a video chain that only stars its audience, First in Action lets the public “race” against each other to make it on the show.

The appeal
If you make it on First in Action, you get to direct the next person in the chain to do whatever you want.

The catch
To make it, you have to be the first to do whatever the last person in the chain wants. “This creates a massive race where you’re pitted against your family, your friends, your neighbors, everyone,” says David Hissami, founder & CEO of The Whoa Show, the company behind First in Action.

You’re probably already aware of services such as Fat Fingers which find misspelled items on eBay. Misspelled items tend to have fewer people viewing them because if the listing is ‘New Latop’ and someone searches for ‘laptop’, the item wont be shown, thus less bids are made. Hence, by finding these items, you can grab a bargain.

TypoTrawler is different to Fat Fingers because instead of users having to enter the search term by hand (e.g. ‘laptop’), we continually search eBay for hundreds of thousands of different misspelled items. We them group them into the categories on our website so that users can easily view them. TypoTrawler uses Web 2.0 ideas to improve the experience for the user. Items are displayed using AJAX and user feedback dictates which typos are searched for in the future and which to blacklist.

But this has been done before…
Yes it has. But TypoTrawler does it better. Services like our sister site TypoTracker are great if you’re looking for a specific item, but if you’re just looking for a great deal on whatever you can find, it’s not very effective. After about 15 minutes you’re out of ideas for things to search for… this is where TypoTrawler steps in. Our robot minions relentlessly trawl through eBay day and night picking out misspelled items. We then display them in a handy list so you can watch the bargains literally flow down the screen!
