Social Betting on the Way!

January 3, 2013

If you have been an internet user in the last five years, you will undoubtedly know that the social revolution is in full swing. This revolution began with simple social networking sites such as Facebook and Twitter; these sites spawned a whole host of similar, yet more niche sites such as Xing and Hives. Next we had the similar websites such as LinkedIn and Twitter. These social networking sites were followed by other socially enabled community sites. Tis included social lending, and social borrowing, as well as related sites such as Kickstarter, which is a social crowdsourcing site.

Kickstarter has recently listed a project that will be of interest to online gambling, and people who enjoy playing at an online casino. This new project aims to introduce social betting. Currently, when we play at an online casino we are wagering on the outcome of certain online gambling games, which are computer controlled. With social betting, we will wager on the outcome of certain games and sports that are played by other online casino users. This means that for example, there could be a virtual 3D driving game, that the online casino site sets up for social betting, and online gamblers would bet on the outcome of the races, which are played by other online casino users. In fact, any form of competitive computer game could with a little imagination, be converted to a social betting version.

This is a really exciting new concept, and one that has never been thought of before. What we find even better is the fact that a social betting project, is seeking funding from the global online gambling community, by using a socially enabled crowdsourcing site such as Kickstarter.

So if you are interested in learning more about social betting, then head on over to Kickstarter and take a look. This is a fairly new project, and there is still plenty of space for new investors, and the company is offering some pretty cool incentives for investors of all levels. Let’s hope this project takes off, as social betting would really add something very new to online casinos sites, something that can be expanded upon.
