- Handybook, which says it is Uber for household services — people that will clean your house on demand. 
- Swifto, a start-up that is a GPS-tracked Uber for dog walking.
- Medicast, which is an Uber of health care, where the app says doctors come to you, anytime, anywhere. 
- Stylebeat, the Uber for beauty salon services. 
- LawPal, which is an Uber for start-ups that need a lawyer.
[Airbnb]
- Airbnb for,” where people copy the concept of Airbnb, the site for short-term home and apartment stays.
- Gigit, is the “Airbnb for bands” where you can get a band, or solo musician, on demand. 
- evenues - for renting meeting spaces. Maybe you’re in need of a quick meeting room for a highly important discussion, then you could try  
- CaterCow - is an Airbnb for catering, where you can order a caterer online. (There are also a number of Ubers for catering, too.) 
- Trave.ly - is the “Airbnb for international travel experiences” — whatever that means. 
- Love Lab - for dating (Bring me a date, quickly!)
concoctions of start-ups that are a replica of more than one successful business, like HouseFix, which is both an Airbnb and a Pinterest of home improvement rolled into one. Some of these brews are just bizarre, like someone mixing a dessert and a main course in a blender and serving it as a smoothie. Like Goat, which is “Vine and Reddit for skateboarding and real world advertising.

- We are building a web based app suite that is 'like an evernote PLUS toodledo for task/project managment and HAS A contact management  

Snapchat is Instragram with a twist, Instagram is Facebook with a twist, and of course Facebook is Myspace with a twist. 
Altavista it and you can see for yourself. 
Technology is about incrementalism.
