iWon
IWon.com was a free casual game site and web portal that offered the chance to win cash for charities through activities such as playing online games. Originally, IWon was highly similar to Yahoo! (at the time), but offered points (good toward daily prizes) for using their search engine and various other features, such as news and weather reports. The site was shut down on January 6, 2016.[1]
Among major early backers of iWon was Viacom, parent of CBS, UPN and MTV. It is now owned by Barry Diller's IAC.[2]
Social media
In January 2011, in an attempt to reach out to users through the social medium of Facebook, iWon launched an interactive game portal similar to the one found on their website. It offered similar games and features, including a daily prize draw during its opening months.
