Abstract:

Systems and methods for efficiently exchanging goods and services, including sharable goods and services, are provided. Certain aspects relate to electronic auctions and clearinghouses that may be configured to more efficiently distribute resources. A task regarding the performance of services and/or provisioning of goods may be generated without assigning a predefined or pre-specified individual to complete that task. In certain embodiments, any one of a plurality of individuals or a group of individuals (i.e., a business) may bid or accept a task. Pledgers may also provide compensation for the successful completion of a task. Tasks may be updated to reflect an aggregate compensation value.
