Woofound, the online and iPhone application that CEO Dan Sines has called the Pandora Internet radio for experiences, is now looking to raise another $2 million from investors, reports the Baltimore Sun:
The company, which is building mobile and web apps that help users find stuff they like based on a simple image-based personality and preference test, filed paperwork with the SEC that showed it intends to raise $2 million from investors. [more]
Thus far, the Baltimore-based startup has raised $443,000 of that $2 million, and has hauled in $1.2 million in investments since its founding in spring 2011. In order to curate experiences for users–art gallery openings or restaurant happy hours, say–Woofound presents people with a series of slides showing photos of things to do in the area, which users then tag as “Me” or “Not me.”
