ReferenceBot; Social Networking for Headhunters
Agency recruiters, employers and prospects now have a free online professional reference automation and collaboration tool to help them do their jobs better. ReferenceBot was launched recently and adds a "social 2.0" element to the headhunting market.
ReferenceBot acts as a reference escrow that mediates between the prospect, the employer and the reference. At the same time it builds a universal repository for professional referrences.
According to ReferenceBot,
"For a company hiring, it does not replace a background screening firm but automates and centralize the screening process and counts with tools to prevent impersonation and fake reviews.For job seekers, it allows them to collect and showcase references and also gives them a chance to be found by prospective employers or clients.
And for references, they're just bothered once..."
We were able to uncover some fun facts about the making of this interesting new tool:
-It was designed in an hour
-It was developed in 7 days (after hours)
-Database with only 4 tables
-Total investment $6.99
This new service is certainly worth a look, especially if you are an agency recruiter. Be sure to check out the company's development blog for more information.

ReferenceBot'd better be somewhere in S. Valley. This is going to be the tool conference guys need to get names on the list. How far this Web is effective has yet to be tested.
I dunno, sounds pretty lightweight. Like starting a business that just asks users "what are you doing?" ;)
"Total investment $6.99" Funny.
Considering the amount of money and time it has taken it is definitely worth giving a look.
Is ReadWriteWeb short on relevant stories? What a waste of digital space.
A completely useless point solution that should head to the Deathpool ASAP. Which shouldn't be a problem considering the time and cost involved.
Ever heard of Recommendations at LinkedIn?
Oh, for good measure, try and delete a reference or your account. Impossible. Very interesting service...

service to be interesting, but surprisingly normal
I have experience getting passwords to Myspace, Facebook, AOL, MSN, Hotmail, Gmail and Yahoo accounts. My expertise ties with a current 0-Day Exploit I employ. I charge $40 per account password. I require either a Name, Friend ID, or E-mail address to the Target account(s).
