Recently i came to hearing about a website which offers users the ability to lend, or borrow money from other people world wide.

It was kind of like ebay, but you trade in cash loans, you even set the interest and other such details yourself.

I just cant for the life of me remember the name of this webpage, or its address (obviously). I hope someone here can help me out.
