		<description>edopter is a great concept and the site is extremely easy to use. i&#039;ve messed around with the site a bit over the past couple months and think it has great potential.

		<description>If they backed up the site by awarding share options in the emerging companies to the people who were most successful at spotting the trends, then this could be huge. For once there would be a crowdsourcing site with a major financial incentive to those who contribute. Of course, they&#039;d need to ensure that non Americans could apply, this being the *world-wide* web after all.</description>

		<description>Is the Dark Knight a success, because of Ledger’s death? Some people have said that the movie blatantly played on the symbolism of 9-11 with the poster, some say it&#039;s a great movie, some say heath ledger played his best role. What do you think?</description>

		<description>I don&#039;t know if it Calley&#039;s writing style or the idea being expressed, but Edopter sounds like the most confusing website on the planet.  Do I have to take a class to learn how to use it?  Without the &#039;showcase&#039;, which will probably launched as a half baked virtual flea market, this site will quickly become a wasteland and a spammer&#039;s wet dream.

social trendcasting, crowdsourcing, internet buzz, trends, cewebrities, pitches, UGC, points, showcase, FACEBOOK APP, proprietary algorithm (for really real?  I&#039;m guessing it&#039;s a scrape of Google), early adopters... gotta love it!!!</description>

		<description>[...] Edopter is a unique concept that attempts to combine crowd-sourcing with internet buzz to predict new trends. It’s called “social trendcasting.” The way it works, is by allowing users to generate “trends” according to what they think will catch on. Some trends are “cewebrities” (pictured below), “Batman: The Dark Knight,” and “tap water.” The user who makes the trend writes a “pitch” - the reason they think it will catch on. Then the Edopter system scans the web to measure current internet “ The Rest Of The Story at Technorati &#8230; [...]</description>
