Free IQ --A New Kind of Internet Experience

By: Larry Christopher

There's a new player on the internet video/social networking scene - Free IQ. If successful, it threatens to revolutionize the way people search for, as well as produce, online content. The emphasis of Free IQ is on material that provides knowledge or information, all put into the context of a search engine that's also a social network!

Free IQ already has quite a bit of content; the favored medium seems to be video. It is not a direct competitor of something like YouTube, where most of the videos are for purely entertainment purposes. Free IQ is meant to be a virtual knowledge center. So far, there are quite a few articles and videos pertaining to internet marketing. This is, no doubt, because internet marketers were among the first to see the site's potential. The format, however, is meant to accommodate expertise in just about any field.

Everyone who uses Free IQ has a voice in the ranking of material. So when someone does a search, the top listings are those that the most people found helpful. This is a more democratic approach to ranking, as opposed to the usual search engines, which are often controlled by the marketers with the largest budget. This is in line with Free IQ's goal to be content-driven.

Visually, the home page at Free IQ appears to be a typical search engine. The logistics of the system, however, are designed to bring up more focused and valuable content than a typical search. Every member also has a bio page and a place to start a mailing list, making Free IQ a social network as well as an informational site.

The Free IQ site also includes a 2-tiered affiliate program, meaning that affiliates earn commissions on purchases from people they sign up, as well as people *their affiliates* sign up.

Despite the commercial nature of much of the site, what stands out about FreeIQ is, as the name implies, the amount of free content. There is plenty of free content on the net, of course, but most of it is trivial. There's nothing wrong with trivia, but it's also good to have a place to be able to access some useful knowledge.

Free IQ may grow and prosper; or it may fade away. It all depends on how the market reacts to this experimental format. I am rooting for it because I see a chance for people to have a new tool allowing them to contribute and access vast amounts of information for free.
