Hello!

You've landed in the archive of the Cambrian House community. We've kept some pages here for posterity but the community is no longer active. Now we market the technology that made our early crowdsourcing a success.

Can we help you get to Cambrian House the company? – Come on over.

Crowdsourcing represents the act of a company or institution taking a function once performed by employees and outsourcing it to an undefined (and generally large) network of people in the form of an open call.
Jeff Howe, Jun 2006

Cambrian House began as a crowdsourcing community using a wisdom of crowds based approach to discover new business and technology ideas. These pages are being kept online as a technology demo to showcase Chaordix™.

Looking to harness the power of your crowd? Find out about Chaordix™ - technology that enables enterprises to get the most out of crowdsourcing.

The Idea

A service similar to PeerFlix.Com but for video games. People can trade games with other people facilitated by the site. Think of an improved GameTz.com - better layout, better system and not simply depending on the honour system for trades.

I thought of this idea when I was...

Borrowing GameTz.com thinking there must be a better, and profitable, system for trading games.

Check out
www.swapvideogames.com
Is that similar to what you are suggesting?

Sort of - but as opposed to the company running the site stocking all the items, users trade between each other, and the user who is requesting the item pays shipping plus an administration fee for the other user to ship their item to them.

The model is much more similar to peerflix.com

You can't have success if you are just repeating an idea with a better layout.

Good idea. Simple and to the point. Charge $0.99 per trade, just like peerflix. Trouble is you need to do it quick.

This says they're expanding into CDs and video games.
