the phenomenon called wowzio

if you are wondering what these amazing widgets are doing on this page, rest assured you wouldn't be able to get them as easily as other widgets, and its all thanks to the wonderful people at wowzio ... without whose support this would simply not have been possible. Wowzio shows an interesting attempt to create beautiful and useful widgets, based on an individual user's request, which when bundled with their amazing service makes you wonder with awe at their capabilities. Most importantly, it is just sooo easy to get the widgets once you recieve their invitation ... you just add your page url and their lightning fast server does the rest ... it retrieves feed in a jiffy, and in a moment you can see all the widgets in front of you ... fully customised for your very own need.

Another interesting attempt by wowzio is the insights. Whta are insights? Insights is a 3-tier system that bubbles up top-notch products for a given task or function, eg. 'Best Blenders for making Smoothies'. The base tier consists of an Insights-Extraction system, which as its name suggests, extracts key insights from reviews of users who have used these products. This gives us products that are good for a given task or function. The middle tier is a normalization and ranking tier called TopRank. This is used to rank products obtained from the base tier. The normalization layer factors in product level parameters like how buyers have rated a product, the number of times buyers have rated a product, how well a product has sold, as well as how a product's price is trending. The top tier (currently in development) is user-voting and editorial oversight. Call that innovation at its very best? You gotcha !!! click here to visit the insights page.

After my very short accquaintance with these wonderful people, I am well assured that wowzio is probably one of the most user-friendly services the web can offer ...

PS: my blog's been revamped ... the widgets have been removed because they don't go well with this template (sidebar too narrow) ... however, they are great widgets all the same ...
