Credictive, which just went into invite-only beta, wants to solve the problem of crediting who did what online. It's pitched as an "IMDB for creative content" where people who create videos or music or other kinds of content or just appear in that media can also be connected. Think LinkedIn for creatives. Given that the Internet is like one big giant photocopier, this is a big problem. They might also be on-trend: Jason Calacanis recently asked where is the "Kickstarter meets LinkedIn for talent".So say you're watching a video online and want to know who created it without having to go to their page, then click on the username, find their original web site/blog or Twitter handle etc etc. That's where Credictive comes in. In a similar manner to the way Pinterest will tell you where an image was re-pinned from, that's what Credictive wants to do. By installing a bookmarklet (a browser extension is coming) Credictive tags up the content you're looking at with who did it.
