Free Iq --a New Kind Of Internet Experience

By:


There's a new player on the internet video/social networking scene - Free IQ. If successful, it threatens to revolutionize the way people search for, as well as produce, online content. The emphasis of Free IQ is on material that provides knowledge or information, all put into the context of a search engine that's also a social network!

There are already at least hundreds of videos and other items posted on Free IQ. While most video sites, such as YouTube, have content that is basically random, or entertainment-oriented, Free IQ is information-centered. While a lot of the content so far is related to the field of internet marketing (reflecting its first members, no doubt), the potential is there for people to share their knowledge in any realm.

The way the system works is that the content is ranked by the site's members. The more popular or useful an item is, the more people will rank it highly, and the closer it will be to the top of the listings. This makes Free IQ a kind of populist search engine, as opposed to traditional search engines, where listings are usually dominated by the most savvy marketers (not necessarily those offering the best content).

So the format of IQ is that of a search engine; indeed, the home page looks like a typical search engine page. The content, however, is much more focused and value-filled than on a typical search engine. There is also a social networking aspect to FreeIQ; a page where members describe themselves and can create their own mailing list.

Free IQ also has an affiliate program, which any member can join for free. When someone becomes an affiliate, they can profit on two levels from any purchases made by people under them.

While much of the site is commercial or business-oriented, the interesting thing about it is the amount of free content (as the name implies). While most of the free content, not surprisingly, points to something that ultimately costs money, there is quite a bit of valuable information being given away. While the net is full of free stuff, most of that is trivia, as opposed to useful knowledge.

Free IQ may grow and prosper; or it may fade away. It all depends on how the market reacts to this experimental format. I am rooting for it because I see a chance for people to have a new tool allowing them to contribute and access vast amounts of information for free.
