Two startups that I've mentioned here previously, Crowdstorm and Dovetail, launch today. Crowdstorm is a shopping platform that measures the buzz around products, complete with a social network - the public beta began this morning. It takes on Kaboodle, ThisNext, ShopWiki and the scores of social shopping startups, but it's well put together and fun to use. There's definitely a Digg-like feel to it, but the interface is unique enough that it doesn't feel like a clone.
