   Is a social networking website but with a difference. It targets the online
    goal setting community.
   It works on tagging rather than explicit interpersonal connections

   Users setup logins and make a list of goals or hopes that they wish to do.
   Once the list is made, the text is being parsed and linked to the goals of
    other users.
   The connection established between goals of multiple people help in
    cheering each other up and encouraging them towards achieving their
    goals
   Location based sharing is allowed enabling users to share their goals with
    people of their own locality alone
   Deadlines can be set for each of your goals thereby urging you to work
    under a timed scenario

   A family can be formed for similar minded users and they can cheer you
    and tag you encouraging you to achieve your goal
   You can add things you have bought on your consumption page and you
    shall receive tips about other similar related items.
   Can be integrated to Flickr, your own personal blog, etc

  • #8: Hospitality service,Hospitality exchange, international understanding,networkingFree to register. Members are encouraged to provide information and photos of themselves and of the accommodation they offer, if anySecurity detailsThere are three methods Couchsurfing that increase security and trust, which are all visible on member profiles for potential hosts and surfers:Personalreferences, which hosts and surfers have the option to leave after having used the service. It is also possible to leave neutral or negative references if it is deemed appropriate. Negative references are sometimes removed by the site.[3]An optionalcredit cardverificationsystem, allowing members to "lock in" their name and mailing address by making a credit card payment under any name and entering a code that Couchsurfing mails to an address of their choice. The verification program is the principal source of revenue for Couchsurfing. In an effort to increase economic fairness, the verification fee is based on a sliding scale, taking into account thePurchasing Power ParityandHuman Development Indexof the country of registration.A personalvouchingsystem, whereby a member that had been vouched for three times originally starting with the founders of the site might in turn vouch for any number of other members he knew or had met through Couchsurfing, andtrusts.
