Evernote iPhone App Fills A Gap

I was looking forward to the iPhone 2.0 release for many reasons, and one of them was the potential to record voice notes and email them to myself, others… Utterz.
Why? There are times when the cellular connection available at the time I would like to record is not optimal. I would like to know, for [...]

Let’s Test Seesmic’s New Embed Features

Threading is now available right inside the Seesmic embedded video below.
Click on reply in the upper right hand corner and see how it works.

An Audio/Visual VoiceCloud Example

Here is the text exactly as it was transcribed and sent to my email:
“Hi I’m leaving a message for myself so you can see the accuracy f the voicecloud service. I wasn’t convinced about this service until someone left me a very lengthy email today and the transcript came in almost perfectly. I was extremely [...]

Have A Listen To Lifehacker on Jott Feeds

I listen to my Utterz Circle in the car. It’s one of my forms of driving entertainment and also a way to maximize my time. I love it.
Jott just added a new feature to their service today that gives me one more way to maximize my driving time. It’s called Jott Feeds. “Jott Feeds offers [...]

Go to LinkBun.ch. Type the links [...]

Vidnik Works (Sort Of) Right Out Of The Box

Usability is everything to me. If something is hard to use, it simply doesn’t get used.
Today I saw a short post about Vidnik over at DownloadSquad and before I even finished the second sentence had already clicked over to the Vidnik download page to give it a try. So, I thought I’d record my very [...]

TechnoSanity Has A New Writer

After a long courtship, I’m pleased to announce that one of my most trusted friends, Mike Whitman, aka rcmike, is about to start writing for TechnoSanity.
I had never intended for this to be a multi-author blog. I wanted it to have one voice. But Mike and I have so much in common, I think it [...]

The New Seesmic Wordpress Plugin

I attempted to install the Seesmic Wordpress plugin on the day it was released with no luck. I wanted to install it here, since this is a test blog of sorts and is running Wordpress 2.5 on the backend. The first version of the Seesmic Wordpress Plugin did not play well with Wordpress 2.5, but [...]

Hahlo 3 Is My iPhone Twitter Choice

I finally jailbroke my iPhone last week using Ziphone.
Anxious to test some applications, I quickly downloaded Twinkle, featured by Installer, and MobileTwitter. I like Twinkle’s “Near Me” feature and the “feel” of each of the native applications. They were certainly responsive, but neither gave me the ease of use features that my favorite web based [...]
