The N-Crowd Project

The N-Crowd™ Social ~ Business Network”
~ Get iN with the N-Crowd !
 

The N-Crowd is a (somewhat ambitious) web project that will initially focus on creating a group of specialized “Information Services” that large numbers of both businesses and individuals increasingly use. These specialized services will be integrated and delivered from a series of themed domains, including:

* N-Crowd.com ~ a Business Networking / Marketplace -- The N-Crowd™ Business Network will be primarily focused on CrowdSourcing related services and initiatives.

* N-Drive.com ~ Cloud Services -- including Online Backup / Internet-based Drive-space, etc. -- Strategic partnering and reselling existing services will allow the initial presence to be setup relatively quickly, and will ensure our core capabilities scale effectively.

* N-Wire.com ~ The Net's News-Wire Service -- Corporate Press Releases, Community Funded Reporting, and various other types of News will be the primary focus of the site.

* N-Ads.com ~ an Online-Advertising Marketplace. -- Free as well as paid / commercial advertising will be offered

* N-Tier.com ~ IT Services Marketplace -- Much of our initial N-Crowd Community Platform’s core functionality can be adopted to facilitate the initial infrastructure for this (potentially large and relatively complex) site

* N-Fun.com ~ a Humor-oriented Social Networking site -- It’s all N-Fun ~ From Jokes to Videos and beyond. Games, Toys, and related items may also be marketed from this site

* CrowdBucks.com ~ a CrowdFunding Marketplace -- owned and operated by its members.  Complementary Currencies will be a featured theme, and micro-lending and other initiatives intended on assisting small independent businesses will also be pursued.

We expect the above domains (as well as other potential sites) to provide independent profit-centers, and will be owned and operated collectively by many of the individuals who participate in creating these sites. Once some of the above sites are in place and functioning, we will officially launch our main Business CrowdSourcing initiative and begin to take on external projects using our initial "proven team" members.

The overall objective is to create a highly functional 24/7 virtual workforce that can work as a flexible team in a cooperative structure, and ultimately create a Virtual Corporation that can provide talented individuals with a variety of interesting jobs, and corporations with high quality and cost effective solutions.

We are still in early planning stages of this venture, however we expect to be able to ramp up our initial presence quite quickly, primarily by working with existing open-source applications along with their developers, as well as partnering with other skilled individuals that can contribute their time and/or other resources in return for long-term involvement with what we expect to be a very exciting and ultimately highly successful endeavor.
