Media Predict vs. Storage Markets

—

UPDATE: I got pilloried on the fact that the comparison between the two is not fair since Media Predict is just out of the egg and Storage Markets is one year old. Next: Media Predict: 172 transactions trader positions, so far.

Media Predict and Storage Markets are two vertical, play-money prediction exchanges (which got Alex Kirtland all excited and wet the other day).

—

Media Predict:

- powered by Inkling Markets;

- very few traders;

- no accurate predictions yet;

- got ink from Midas Oracle (we were the first to publish about it back in March 2007), the New York Times and Bo Cowgill.

—

Storage Markets:

- powered by the Hollywood Stock Exchange;

- many traders from their industry;

- accurate predictions;

- got no ink (besides from Midas Oracle).

Once again, that’s the marketing, stupid.
