iliketotallyloveit.com is an online social shopping community where users submit and vote for products that they ‘like totally love’ while simultaneously helping people discover exceptional stuff. Included with every item is a link to an online shop where it can be purchased. The more people vote for a product, the greater opportunity it has to advance to the homepage and be exposed to even more visitors. It is a popularity contest within the community.
Consumers want an entertaining online equivalent to recreate their offline shopping experience of window shopping, relaxed browsing, and discovery. Consumers want to know what real people love, not what marketers want them to love. That is exactly what they try to offer. They let the people vote!
What makes them better than the competition?
They don’t follow trends or let marketers fool our users—they showcase trends live as they happen and are very transparent. Many other services are cluttered with useless features that have nothing to do with shopping. They try to be everything for everyone while iliketotallyloveit.com comes in a clean, no-frills, no-brainer package. Our site is straight to the point and very easy to understand. It’s social voting for products.
In one sentence: iliketotallyloveit.com – Extraordinary propaganda for extraordinary products.

Thanks to enough wine, soft drinks, and cocktails the faux pas with the beer – off 6 minutes after opening the bar – was not that big topic of conversation as the twitter wall suggests than Web 2.0 business and strategy and the cute soccer playing robots presented by the innovative team FUmanoids of the Free University Berlin.
Thanks to all guests for coming, we hope to see you again soon.
Yesterday Benjamin Rohé visited us at the zanox GAP Campus. Representing beschenkmich.de he took the opportunity to meet the zanox Monetization team and the zanox Web Services team. Good luck to Benjamin for the presentation at the zanox Web Services Contest Finale 2008!
The participant will win the one million Euro zanox Web Services Contest, who provides the most promising business model. The busniness modell must not base on zanox completely – zanox has to be at least part of it. Not necessarily the one with the most commission will win – even the one with the lowest commission during the contest may have the most promising business model.
All participants have to show two things:
a business plan, and
a running application accessing zanox Web Services.
If you have more questions regarding the contest you are invited to contact Francesco Votta (francesco.votta@zanox.com) in English or Italian or Sebastian Wallroth (sebastian.wallroth@zanox.com) in English or German.
