I was turned on to a new barter/swap/trade/free site and it is one that I actually like. Very simple to use, EcoFreek. is what a good search engine is – it finds opportunities for barter. Simply enter what you are looking for and pages of search results pop up. Try it for yourself. www.ecofreek.com
Canada must have caught the barter bug. Most of the new barter sites I am seeing are coming out of Canada, and this one is better than most. My only problem is that the site is built in french, and I only speak italian and english. Let’s see if we can get through the site [...]
I caught wind of another new internet barter site, so I went and took a look. At the outset it looks pretty good. I like the function of being able to login with Facebook, though in my barter related work I rarely use that function. To an average user, though, it’s a real time saver. [...]
Facebook may just be the undoing of the traditional internet as we know it. Barter is even moving in the direction of an app on Facebook. And with 500+ million users, Facebook has the user base to perhaps pull it off. This app is much like any of the other swap sites we’ve seen so [...]
The first thing you notice when opening up the kwik e-bart site is that you get an error message, or something that looks like an error message. I don’t know about you, but when I get a popup message that looks like an error, I immediately get suspicious of the site. Luckily for them, I’m [...]
BarterTown.com is another new internet only barter website, similar to a classified site. While the images of this intro video are mildly interesting, the video is terrible! I mean, they use a computer voice to do the voice over work. You can hear the clicks of the mouse and the keyboard. It’s just terrible! Enjoy.
NoLongerNeedIt.com posted a video on YouTube today that led me to them. They are another of the standard one-to-one barter websites we have seen so many of in the last year. This one looks to be a little busy, and perhaps will do a better job than others in hooking people up. I haven’t had [...]
FavorPals, a new internet barter startup that I have yet to review, released the following statement. Can you imagine a world without money? It starts by tapping the power of collective cooperation and letting people, both locally and around the world, exchange services for other goods and services. As the world’s leading free online bartering [...]
In my second video review this week, I went through the SwapRight.com website. They have a bit better user interface than Barterian did, the option of logging in with Facebook Connect, and an easier sign up process, but have the same problems that most of these barter startups have: no tools for hooking people up, [...]
