Voicetap - Startup

Getting an expert could be really easy on the web. You just Google what you are looking for. But, SEO, ads have really made it tough to find a person ready to give us a true bargain. Imagine getting an expert advice free of cost and that too on phone. Doesn't seem really feasible. Well, Voicetap has made it possible. It connects you to an expert. You can connect with them through G-talk, ask a problem and decide on ta mode of communication.

The only problem is that it is a feedback based system so there is a high probability that you could be talking to a product/service seller rather than an expert. Their concept will work if it gets the right set of experts and expert seekers. They have experts on knowledge. Knowledge can be divided into explicit and tacit knowledge. There is no dearth of explicit knowledge on web. Its only tacit knowledge that needs a network and interaction. And I feel that there would be hardly any people who'd be really willing to give time for something which has taken years for them to build. To build quality they would need to sort experts and pay them else it would become a selling forum. This problem is shown in the screen shot below.

I feel they'll have to tweak the concept to make it work.
In all the idea of connecting experts and seekers is good and can make a good business model.

Hamann Most of the times marketers face the challenge of being misunderstood. During the days when I was part of a startup, I felt that even if I'd break my head, the client will not really understand what my firm was offering and the benefits it gave.

Australian Media on Border Gavaskar Series

The Australian coach Tim Nielsen backed Ricky Ponting for using his part time bowlers for pacing up the slow over rate. But the Australians atleast the media wasn't in a mood to oblige. Remember the 2005 Ashes? He clearly made an error by attempting to increase the over rate last night in Nagpur when he should have been using his best bowlers at a point in the match where the test could be won. Alan Border was dumbstruck and many former players have shaken their heads in amazement that he seemed more interested in avoiding a one match ban than winning the test. The country awaits Ponting’s response. The Australian November 10, 2008 Although there were words of praise for the debutant spinner Jason Krejza who wove magic(although costly) and almost spun the whole Indian side in the first innings of the fourth test at Nagpur. There were praises for the selectors and Ricky Ponting for bringing him at the right time, but the stones kept pelting on the rest of bowling attack. Here is an...
