Trodo.com - Next ebay?
A new site went live today that offers a great alternative to getting what you want - simply by trading. Trodo.com was developed by Adrian at holovaty.com and thought up by John Rhodes of WebWord.List stuff on Trodo. When a person asks for something, you ship it. When they get it, they give you feedback and you earn a credit. Use credits to get stuff from any other Trodo member, for free.
I think the idea is perfect. I’m curious on how well it will be received by the community and how well it will compete against ebay.com. I think it has a good chance.
One downfall (IMHO) is the design of the site. Whereas it’s nice to not have a lot of design clutter - design can help with usability and making the end user feel like it’s a crediable site. Not just some kid in his basement trying to steal stuff.
All in all I’m amazed that someone has come up with such a great idea in a world of so many. Good job guys :-)
