Thea Chard8/31/10
Seattle-based web “gamification” company BigDoor Media rolled out a new tool today called Badge-O-Matic to help online publishers integrate game-like mechanics into websites. Badge-O-Matic allows virtual economy administrators to quickly customize and create a series of badges, popularized by applications like Foursquare, that users automatically receive as rewards for leveling up, performing certain actions, and engaging online. BigDoor Media raised $5 million in Series B funding led by the Foundry Group in June.
