Wallop
Wallop was originally designed as an Internet social network service from Microsoft Research. As a startup, the company behind Wallop was backed by $13 million from Microsoft and venture capitalists including Norwest Venture Partners, Bay Partners and Consor Capital. The company was later spun off of Microsoft. While the Wallop team was working on launching their website, however, the expansion to platforms of other social networks and their opening up of APIs led to Wallop's changing directions. Instead of trying to compete with these already established social networking providers, the company scrapped their Beta application and, as stated in their website, "Wallop retooled their product and focused on developing cutting-edge applications for leading social networking platforms like Facebook, and Bebo". As of 2008, the company left its social networking service model and went into creating applications for other social networking sites instead. ==Wallop products== Currently, Wallop has three products they call ''Cool Cards'', ''Glittering Killer Bazooka Banana Monkeys Filled of Orange Marmalade 2.0'', and ''Party On!''. These applications are hosted by Wallop, and are built using Facebook and Bebo APIs, thus supporting those two social networking platforms by default, but can also be posted to other sites by using the regular method of embedding Adobe Flash applications into HTML. ''Cool Cards'' is simple Adobe Flash-based application to display card-like graphics that users can customize before posting in someone's social networking site profile. ''Glittering Killer Bazooka Banana Monkeys Filled of Orange Marmalade 2.0'' is an application used for education purposes. (it helps people learn French and tell fact from bad translations) ''Party On!'', on the other hand, is also an Adobe Flash-based application which can also be posted in the user's profile, and allows users to create a customized invitation that will keep track of guest lists, therefore making a place for people to plan parties inside such a profile.
