Boston, MA – July 22, 2008: The emergence of Web 2.0 social networks has created a simple way for web users to communicate across the world. Today a new social network emerges to connect web users through a common act of giving and receiving favors – FavorAsk.com.

Through a web-based portal, users may ask for personal favors from the website’s community. Members may read, respond to, and offer to complete the favors posted by other users. Favors can be performed in a specific location or through FavorAsk’s online private message boards, and typically range anywhere from proofreading a cover letter, building an investment portfolio, or even seeking a local member to help you move.

With the increase in information made available online, the founders of FavorAsk – Michael Fruzzetti and Benjamin Dolgoff – discovered that many solutions did not properly or adequately answer their questions. “Although we believe in collaborative intelligence, sometimes your question requires a solution from an individual who has experience relevant to your favor. We harness the combined intelligence of a growing user base and enable our members to receive personal solutions from generous and willing users.”

FavorAsk’s notable features:

Personal one-on-one message boards
Video/Audio support for attachments
Personal activity screens to monitor favor posts
Location and category-based favors
Optional “tip jars” for each member
Member profiles, ratings and reviews
Completed solutions engine

The site – launched privately in May 2008 – officially launches its public beta site on July 22, 2008. Visit www.FavorAsk.com to register for an account.
