RiverWired Gets the Green Light with $1.5M in Funding


RiverWired.comLook - I’m all over the green movement.  I gave up bottled water.  I bring reusable cloth bags to the grocery store.  I bought a fuel-efficient vehicle and I turn off the lights before I leave a room.  And like most good lil’ greenies, I’m always looking for easy ways to make my lifestyle even more eco-friendly.

Enter RiverWired, a social network masquerading as a magazine.  On the outset, the site features lifestyle tips, product reviews and even a handy widget to find local farmers markets.  But after setting up a user account, a plethora of new features become available - blogs, videos, plus user tips and suggestions on how to be more green every day.

RiverWired just got even more green - as in the cash variety.  According to VentureBeat, the site just received $1.5M in seed funding by undisclosed angel investors.  Which is cool because in my book, the best kind of social networking is the green kind.
