We mentioned the social lending platform Zopa in a previous post (see: “Zopa: Disruptive technology par excellence“) as en example of an interesting and possibly disruptive technology.

Zopa operates in the UK and in early February it got an American counterpart: Prosper.com. We decided to add the two to our Trend Tracker to see how much buzz each one is getting in the blogosphere according to Google’s blog search engine. Currently, Zopa’s head start has them well in the lead.

Check out the buzz on Zopa vs. Prosper on the Trend Tracker. Zopa’s reaction to the newcomer in a post on its blog is also interesting.
