Your Opinion Counts




Tezaa is a quick way to know opinions on serious and trivial matters. You can instantly creat a poll if opinion you are seeking is not already there.

Tezaa Opinion Search


★★★★☆
I got to know about Tezaa through my BarCamp friend Amit Rajan's Webyantra. I was curious to know that it is a Chennai based Web2.0 startup.

I gave it a try and found it interesting and potentially addictive. With Tezaa you can search for opinion on topics by keyword. If you are not satisfied with the results you can create a opinion poll of your own. The active community picks up the poll and votes.

There are provisions for running the poll through your blog as a widget.

The business model is not obvious from the site. Yet there are multiple ways to make money out of the play. The generated content increases in value with time and community participation. I will not recommend a ad based revenue model for this play. Carigslist like community growth is needed. At that point a profit sharing model will evolve.

  1. Hi Bala,

    I also found tezza kind of adictive. Ever since I blogged it on Webyantra, I have been spending a couple of minutes on the site every second day or so.

    Incidentally, many of the startups I am profiling on the blog are from Chennai. At this rate, Chennai can very well claim to be the startup capital of India.

    regards

    amit
