Akron, Ohio (PRWEB) March 28, 2013
Powsumer a new consumer-driven pricing website founded by Corbin Bernsen, will use “big data” to pursue the best deals for shoppers, according to a recent article on Akron Beacon Journal Online. Since the launch of a funding campaign on the Indiegogo crowdsourcing site, Powsumer has drawn attention for its use of crowdsourcing to fund a crowd-powered venture.
“Indiegogo is a great way to launch Powsumer,” says Corbin Bernsen, co-founder and president, Powsumer. “Powsumer will rely on broad-based internet participation to bring the best deals to consumers, much the same way Indiegogo uses the internet to crowd-source funds for many worthy causes.”
The Journal noted: “Consumers would tell Powsumer what they want to buy and how much they want to pay. Powsumer would use ‘big data’ — large, complex sets of information that is the project’s secret sauce — to determine the likelihood of a supplier agreeing to that price.”
Powsumers disruptive e-commerce technology will allow communities of individuals to more actively participate and drive down the price in the consumer choices they make. The patent-pending technology includes protection of the “big data” analytics associated with the process of bringing consumers together into purchasing groups (“packs”) through social and web networks as well as procuring suppliers that are willing to fulfill a packs purchasing demands. Each pack will be established by a “pack leader” that defines the product or service the pack wants as well as the lowest price each member of the pack is willing to pay for the product or service. Powsumer connects suppliers with the pack and helps negotiate and close the deal as a volume purchase. Suppliers of products can be anywhere in the world and will drop ship the product directly to individual consumers without Powsumer ever handling the specific product. Big data will allow for robust metrics for both the consumer and the supplier around real time market data, product and pricing trends, and current surplus inventory throughout the U.S. and world.
The $ 100,000 funding goal will be used to pay for further development and launch of the Powsumer.com beta site. The Indiegogo campaign can be found at: http://igg.me/at/powsumer/x/2593754. Supporters of the campaign will receive a range of perks from founder certificates and hoodies to a visit with the Powsumer team, including founder Bernsen.

As we approach the Masters Golf Tournament at Augusta National, the first major of 2013, we look back on how Bubba Watson pulled off his amazing 2012 win there.
During his practice round in 2012, Bubba used a GPS device powered by SkyDroid – Golf GPS course data. Bubba was using the MotoActv golf watch during practice which uses SkyDroid courses exclusively.
SkyDroid course data (which contains all the latitude/longitude points for the front, center, back of the golf greens and other features like hazards, target points, trees), is crowd sourced by SkyDroid’s user community. Users add new courses every single day of the year using the web based Course Mapper tool on the SkyDroid website.
Starting in 2010 with only a small number of courses, the SkyDroid database has grown in 2013 to over 25,000 golf courses covering the entire world. Using satellite imagery supplied by Google Maps (and Bing Maps in some cases), users can add new courses or update existing ones online and then download updates to their SkyDroid – Golf GPS app running on Android, iPhone and Blackberry 10 devices.
Bubba’s win at the Masters in 2012 proves that SkyDroid course data is at the top level, is super accurate, and can be used by pro and amateur golfers all over the world to help improve their game.
