WON: introducing the world’s first attention currency
Ever been annoyed by all those ads and banners on the internet? These attention grabbing huge pop-ups and layer ads that you just click to close and get rid of as fast as possible?
Get something different four your attention. Get WONs.
Giving is better than taking.
WONs are different. They have been created for everybody. You get them, because you spend your attention. There is no purchase necessary. WONs honour your attention. Don’t let your attention be taken for granted or stolen by banners yelling at you: CLICK ME! BUY THIS! DO THAT! more »

WickedOrNot - a good place to start a revolution.
WickedOrNot is a good place to start a revolution. Why? Because we have implemented a revolutionary approach.
From a technological perspective WickedOrNot is a reference for Apotomo, the first stateful widget component framework for Rails. Developed by Nick Sutterer, Apotomo is ready to take AJAX and Rails further. The component concept extends Rails with event-driven widgets that know when and how to update themselves.
From an online marketing perspective WickedOrNot is a working demo of how WON, the world’s first attention currency, will work. For every action taken on WickedOrNot users get WONs. Rating, uploading, commenting - each action will get you more WONs. more »
