Spicynodes, spicy and interesting as it sounds…

SpicyNodes is a way to visualize online information that mimics that way that people look for things in the real world. Bits of information — such as text, links, photos, and other media — are placed into “nodes,” which are then linked together in an appealing interface that invites exploration. SpicyNodes can be used for everything from mind maps and content portals to organizational charts and lesson plans.

Phone Halo, a name is not what it always means

Nowfal Ebrahim — Thu, 25 Mar 2010 02:10:53 +0000

I had always wanted a device like this. Wanted the bluetooth controlled, aka – a distance defined from the bluetooth manager to the bluetooth device. This device is good for the purpose it is built, lost keys, wallet and anything that you can think about you would walk out without. The only thing you cannot walk out without is the smartphone itself.

When I had planned about creating a device like this, the purpose of that was completely of a different nature, I will be emailing the guys at Phone Halo and looking at how they could implement that. It would be great way to market that product into different verticals and a different audience.

This is a very cool product, it has just been demoed at DEMO, and Phone Halo is officially available for sale.

StorySomething, a great idea. What I always wanted when I am with my kid.

This is a novel idea of an old idea. The spin on the idea is great. Write your stories anywhere and have it in hand on you phone too. This is so handy in those wait lines in the airport, traffic jams on your long drives. It is still in beta and seems to be a story it will live upto. Did not have a great logo, this is supposed to be a smaller version of their landing page.

CeeVee, a nice a catchy name. Name says all.

This is a great service, instead to keeping all your resumes in folders, attached to emails and stored in different places, this cuts it. Not that you do not have other options, but as the name suggests, this is all you do.

GV dialer, this is great for anyone with a google voice account

Meenu Gupta — Tue, 14 Apr 2009 01:30:00 +0000

I tried GVdialer on my mobile phone, great app, a bit pricey though. It does what it says in very simple methods.

Once installed and setup complete, you can set it to activate if you need to use your google voice number to be the calling number. Perfect if you do not want to give out your cell phone number to people.

Very simple app, has a 30 day trial period.

Integrates very well with your google voice account settings for voicemail, text and et al……

A great utility, I have been wanting something like this…bullet proofed app…

This is a great application to back up your mobile phone. If you are using smartphones then you really do not need this, because you can backup those devices using desktop softwares. But the over the air backups are a great boon in disguise, you schedule the backups and are sure that the backups are safe in a place where you can recover it from the cloud.
