Rypple Flow is a similar idea, except it is designed to show activity inside a company.
Toronto-based Kobo, the e-reader and digital book company, is one of the first users of Rypple Flow.
Start-up Rypple brings social networking tools to human resources departments, upending practices like the often-dreaded annual performance reviews.
So when we started to think about building the product that would eventually become Rypple, we decided to follow a different approach.
Toronto-based company Rypple for example provides a means for individuals to send out and collect input from their network, whether identified or anonymous.
Instead of traditional performance review tools, Rypple is a social website where people can go to quickly give feedback to anyone in their company.
Among other things, Rypple lets users ask members of their networks to measure their performance against a scale, so they can track how they are doing over time.
The creators of a new, web-based service called Rypple claim that it can satisfy Net Geners' desire for frequent assessments while easing the burden on their supervisors.
Now Rypple is launching a new feature for companies called Rypple Flow, which is basically a constant real-time stream of activity in a company that is piped in over an HD television.
Gamification is being used by a number of companies such as Badgeville, Bunchball, 500Friends and Rypple to add page views, monetization and loyalty or encourage other actions inside of a company.
Rypple, which is backed by investors including Bridgescale Partners, Edgestone Capital Ventures, Extreme Venture Partners and PayPal founder Peter Thiel, is used by companies including Facebook ( recently in Wired), Gilt Groupe, Rackspace, and Accenture.
