Street Advisor is your virtual neighborhood stoop. If you are looking to re-locate, or connect to members in your neighborhood, Street Advisor gives you the down low on Anystreet, Planet Earth. It´s based on user generated content, a rating system and a community message board. Therefore, theoretically you can look up any street in the world and see what members of that particular community have to say about it, supported by a list of 22 factors of appeal. When your street pops up, you´ll be given the overall rating on a 1-5 scale, then a streetVIBE, streetWIRED, streetHEALTH, streetVALUES, and streetESSENTIALS, to be able to, at a glance, see how others have rated the community. The website also features a guidebook,“streetboard,” and a google map with pin points on your exact location. The guidebook serves as a place to post up wide-ranging topics that could not be addressed in the factors of appeal. The streetboard is used a place for neighborhood chat, a virtual stoop, if you will, for input, comments, rumors, whatever you like.

Some questions

Will users be motivated to generate content on the site? Is the task of monetizing neighborhoods across the globe a little too challenging?
