VentureDig is a micro-blogging platform with a twist: it is solely devoted to entrepreneurs and venture capitalists, and it aims to provide these individuals with the resources for learning about new ventures that surface and share ideas online.
This platform enables you to “pitch a venture that you dig”, to use the site’s expression, and see what others think about it. True to the micro-blogging motif, there is a character limitation at play when you share your venture with others, namely 140 characters. As I see it, this is not necessarily a bad thing – it will actually help you streamline your concept and portray it more directly, something you are going to need in order to attract investors.
The site features the latest updates on its main page, so that you can see how things are shaping up on the fly. For its part, navigation options include a search engine and a keyword cloud. Both are featured on the right-hand side of the main page. Finally, a “Follow a Tag Subject” section is likewise part of the premises, along with a “Follow Everyone” widget.
“VentureDig is the first micro-blogging platform that focuses on ventures and venture capital. You can think of VentureDig as Twitter for entrepreneurs, venture capitalists, angel investors or anyone desiring to learn about the next big thing. The concept behind VentureDig is really quite simple: pitch a venture that you find to be awesome! Something you dig! Something you like so much, that you decide to share it with all of your friends.”
It enables you to put the wisdom of crowds to good use, and find if your killer venture has true potential or not.
