Abstract: A computerized social sharing and trading system, method, device, and product based on virtual consideration that allows a user to sign up and create a profile that is stored in a database. The user is given a welcoming amount of virtual currency that allows trading for goods and services provided by other members of the system. The user can specify customized parameters that may be used to raise very specific queries and to specify location, fees, condition, etc. to allow the user to thoughtfully select the goods or services desired. One embodiment allows users to create groups for specific tasks or goods so that only those people relating to the selected group will be contacted. Users are able to personalize their profiles and offer-pages and will be charged a small virtual fee for this option. In some embodiments, video conferencing is integrated to allow services to be offered virtually.
