Jobvana Becomes Bragadoo

Seattle-based Jobvana has become Bragadoo, a new web site focused on helping people find home and family services. According to Bragadoo, it will help users find such things as mechanics, fitness providers, landscaping services, child care providers, and others on its site, with reviews from other consumers. The firm is hoping to help small business owners to connect with customers, saying it is a "mash-up of service listings and social networking." The firm was founded by Nathan Casey, and is venture backed by Hawkeye Investments and Rally Capital.
