StandoutJobs: Garage Ventures seems to have a thing for job sites. MapleLeaf2.0 is reporting that GV has invested in the Series A round for Canada based startup - StandoutJobs. StandoutJobs has raised total of $1.5 million in it’s initial round. Not much details are available about StandoutJobs except for that it will be a video job classifieds platform. Somehow video classifieds seems to be en vogue. iMoondo is another startup trying to videofy classifieds. GV is also an investor in job search site SimplyHired.
Gizmoz: As I had written couple of months back, 3D avatar creation service Gizmoz has given out details about it’s Series A round of funding. The startup has raised $6.3M in Series A led by Benchmark Capital with Columbia Capital. The Israel based startup faces competition from the likes of recently launched service Voki from OddCast.
