Following latest market trends to satisfy customers and users, phpAuction adds to enuuk Auction platform the penny auction as a standard feature.
This new modules allow our users extend its operations and business model with penny auctions and be the leader on their segment.
And what is a penny auction?
Users buy “bids” in advance in packs. Bidders have the choice of placing single bids, or, using an autobid assistant. Every bid placed, increases the price of the product by a fix amount –usually a penny-. The ‘last bidder standing’ when the countdown reaches zero, wins the auction.

Distraction is the enemy of good writing, as anyone who ever puts pen to (figurative) paper certainly knows. There are several text editors out there that aim to limit writers’ visual distractions—DarkCopy, for example, is one—but a new alternative uses elements of Zen to create a multisensory ambience that’s designed to promote concentration.
Originally developed as an internal tool for the copywriters at Barcelona creative agency Herraiz Soto & Co., Ommwriter is a free text processor that uses visual elements and sound to help writers focus their thoughts. Aimed at bloggers, journalists, copywriters and anyone who simply enjoys writing, Ommwriter lets writers choose from an assortment of relaxing background images, fonts and Zen-like sounds to create a world where they can focus on their thoughts. A snowy winter scene, for example, can form the backdrop for the writer’s words, while icy tinkling sounds mark the appearance of each letter. Ommwriter is currently available in a beta version for Mac computers.
With all the many devices, applications and modes of communication now competing for our attention, information overload seems to be here to stay. Keep the anti-distraction innovations coming! (Related: Multisensory pop-up spaces — Being spaces for parents & writers.)

Buskers have played on city streets for hundreds of years, working on the premise that people are willing to pay for a decent performance. Operating on a similar model, Anjuno could be seen as returning music to its pay-what-you-want roots. Launched in May, Anjuno allows creators of music, games and ebooks to post their work on the site, which fans can download and enjoy, then pay the artist whatever they think it’s worth. The system accepts payments at any level—including free. Anjuno takes a commission of 15% per sale.
Anjuno aims to make the economics of digital media better for both the producer and the consumer. Summing up the advantages for both the artists and their fans, Anjuno urges: “Instead of pirating that new album because you don’t feel like paying $15, pay $2 here on Anjuno. And since we don’t take huge cuts of the profit like record labels and publishers, the artist ends up making more from your small payment on Anjuno.”
Up until now, similar (un)pricing schemes have predominantly been used as a promotional tool. Does this this mark the beginning of a shift towards pay-what-you-want pricing models becoming more widely adopted as the basis of a business? Will we see more new businesses fundamentally eschew traditional pricing models in favour of letting their customers decide the prices? One to watch. (Related: pay-as-you-want magazines, restaurants, hotels and ad agencies.)
