Update on the German Web 2.0 scene

Over a month ago since my last post about German web 2.0 applications a bunch of new ones popped up. Lots of them deal with photo and video sharing and try to find the best way to imitate the success of YouTube and others on the German market and beyond. The same applies to social networking platforms addressing students from Germany, Austria and Switzerland, i.e. at the moment Studiverzeichnis and Studylounge. The German weekly newspaper ZEIT has a current insight on this. However, find below in alphabetical order the new ones – and older ones I missed in the last post.

dialo.de – yellow book with local reviews
DVDSwop – exchange platform for DVDs, etc.
Imagelooop – kind of Slide clone
MyVideo – video sharing platform
lovento – event platform with social networking component
Studylounge – another Facebook imitation
teamslide presentation sharing tool, also featured on TechCrunch
Vloop – video sharing platform (alpha)
zeec – photo and video sharing platofrm
