The folks at Entrecard recently launched a small store on their site. The store allows users to buy a handful of perks for their listing by using their saved up credits that they’ve earned. If it becomes popular it should prove to be an effective way to keep the number of oustanding credits in the system down.

This becomes really interesting to me with the announcement on the Entrecard blog that they’ll be offering six users the ability to sell their own products or services on the store. They use examples like selling t-shirts or design services for Entrecard credits. Anyone interested in having their idea listed in the store must write a post describing what they would offer (and for how much) and then write a comment on the Entrecard blog with a link to their idea post.

So What Will You Be Selling?

I don’t know for sure if I would ever want to get involved in the store by offering design or programming services. My interest in the Entrecard store has to do with the outsourcing options it would offer. If the folks at Entrecard choose user ideas that involve simple graphic design or writing services from users (that’s the most obvious idea for most users, I think) then I might be interested in exchanging my credits for work like that.

I mentioned this is my review of Entrecard but it’s ideas like this store that make Entrecard a fun and interesting diversion for web site owners. I continue to be a big fan of the service.
