Existing bartering platforms Sample Clauses

Existing bartering platforms. Bartering and exchange activities take place very often in various online plat- forms where user communities are involved. Even common social media plat- forms, such as Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, or Pinterest can be used to an- nounce services or goods for bartering, although they do not support the trans- action process explicitly. The existing bartering platforms which support trading, mainly motivate users to save money by trading anything from cooking skills, baby sitters, smartphones, to houses and real-estate. They can cover a large range of goods or services for exchange and bartering, e.g. BarterQuest5, TradeYa6, and Swapit7. These bartering platforms use points or miles instead of money to equalize trades or acquire items or services. Points and miles can be purchased, which enables these websites non-cash trading. If we only observe services, knowledge and skill bartering, these bartering plat- forms are evolved from helpdesks or call centres. Instead of these conventional face-to-face or telephone line based, video chatting has become a promising tool for real-time help sessions between experts and users who have a problem and require a help session. The recently rolled-out Google Helpouts8 integrates Google Hangouts for video chatting and offers help session with experts (e.g. in cooking or repairing your computer) for free or for monetary payments. The free bartering platform Just Answer9 supports chatting to solve problems by experts, with the slogan “A new question is answered every 9 seconds”. In the context of schools, Trade school10 is a real world (not online) bartering platform. It makes a community of self-organised schools running on barter in many cities world- wide. Learners barter knowledge and experiences acquired in those schools with barter items such as food. 5xxxx://xxx.xxxxxxxxxxx.xxx/‌ 6xxxx://xxxxxxx.xxx/http://xxx.xxxxxx.xx.xx/ 7xxxx://xxx.xxxxxx.xx.xx/‌ 8xxxxx://xxxxxxxx.xxxxxx.xxx 9xxxx://xxx.xxxxxxxxxx.xxx/ 10xxxx://xxxxxxxxxxx.xxxx/‌ Table 2.: A comparison of the selective existing bartering platforms and Go-Lab Bartering Platform as well as platform Bartering objects Listing Video chat- ting Rating & com- ment- ing Free or pay- ment Com- munity based TradeYa goods + services yes no yes both no Google Helpouts services (expertise) yes yes yes both no Just Answer services (expertise) yes no yes free no Trade School knowledge (expertise) no no no free yes Go-Lab BPF services (expertise) yes yes yes both yes Table 2 co...
