Vote for David Adewumi’s startup idea on ideablob

Another Penn State entrepreneur is gunning for the $10k prize on ideablob. David Adewumi’s startup Heekya is presenting a revolutionary new platform for sharing content on the web.

David calls it a “Wikipedia for Stories” on his ideablob entry, but it’s much more than that.

Think of it as a way to aggregate people’s life experiences through all forms of media, while weaving similar entries together with the Heekya algorithm to allow users to discover relevant stories. Why is this idea different? A typical blog is an embodiment of one’s ego which is haphazardly linked with others’ blogs through hyperlinks. Other life streaming tools such as Twitter and Flickr all focus around the individual, where you must follow a person of interest.

However, through geo-targeting, semantic processing and external embedding, Heekya is building the ideal channel of storytelling. And, along with it, comes a new social network that forms around a flourishing cloud of interweaving life experiences.
