The crowds and hype of South By Southwest make the massive Austin tech and media conference the perfect place for launching, well, any sort of app that needs crowds and hype to break out of tech circles and into the mainstream. So what can we expect to blow up next week, like Twitter, Foursquare, GroupMe and Beluga have in past years?
Highlight is what I’m placing my bets on — and not for what it is today, but for what it could become. That is, the long-sought replacement for business cards. The new background location app got my attention at the beginning of February because it made it easy for me to find old friends and meet new ones without the friction of checking in. Relentless early adopter Robert Scoble has also taken a close look at each, and last weekend declared them the up-and-comers at SXSW this year.
For you, Scoble). In an in-depth article for The Next Web last weekend, he sketched out three key reasons why these apps are special. Wait, what? Yutongo - [ongrowing ideas] Clear: Why This Simple To Do List App Has Everyone Talking. Clear, the heavily-anticipated touch-based to-do list app, is launching in the iTunes App Store tonight. And by heavily anticipated, I mean this app was getting tech blog coverage based on demos, previews and teaser videos.
Why the big draw for what’s typically been a rather ho-hum app category, the lowly to-do list? Clear is pure eye candy, for starters. But it’s also representative of a major leap forward in smartphone app design, as it’s been built from the ground up for the touch interface. If your current to-do list app needs are complex, you may not be in the market for Clear. The app is unique in that it forgoes common navigational elements – like buttons positioned either at the bottom of the screen or towards the top – in favor of an all-gesture interface. Somewhere, Steve Jobs, no fan of buttons (obviously – look at the iPhone, there’s just the one) is smiling. That’s it. But is the world ready for a buttonless app? “Yes!” He’s got a point. Zotero Review. On its website, Zotero is described "is a free, easy-to-use Firefox extension to help you collect, manage, and cite your research sources. " Even though it’s been out for a while, I somehow didn’t run into it until a few months ago.
I’ve used it for a while and have switched over from using Endnote because I like it that much, below is my review. Here is my two sentence review of Zotero: If Evernote and Endnote had sex and made a baby, Zotero would be that baby. It would then outdo its parents in so many ways. If that is all you need to know, go ahead and try it out, it's free for crying out loud.
Otherwise, here is my longer review organized in list form of my opinions of its features. The part about Evernote in my two sentence review is about how Zotero can do more than just manage research articles, but I can’t write about everything (that’s what it’s website is for) so this review will just be about using Zotero to manage research papers. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10.

Research/SEARCH - Anti-Facebook Social Network “Unthink” Launches To Public. Scrappy outsider startup Unthink.com, which bills itself as the “anti-Facebook,” is opening up its doors today, allowing in its first round of beta testers. The Tampa-based company with $2.5 million in funding from DouglasBay Capital sees itself as a more open, more honest form of social networking – one where its users are the owners of their data, and not the product being sold to advertisers. Unthink is the kind of startup that could only come from outside of traditional tech hotspots like Silicon Valley or New York, as there’s a certain level of audacity, and perhaps even ignorance, that you need in order to think you have a shot at displacing social networking giant Facebook and all of its 800 million users.
And taking down Facebook is the core of Unthink’s marketing campaign. In fact, the majority of Unthink’s message is about what it is not: it’s not another social network, it’s a social revolution. Unthinkers are not users, they’re owners. Unthink is not in control, you are. Evernote.

Research/SEARCH - Jonah Merchant (simianaudio) Research/SEARCH - foursquare (website) Location-based social networking service On October 21, 2024, it was announced that the app would sunset on December 15, 2024, with the web version following on April 28, 2025.[8] Foursquare Swarm will remain and gain features that were previously only available in the Foursquare app. Major features include local search and recommendations, tips and expertise, tastes, location detection, ratings, lists, superusers, brands, and Places API. Foursquare uses proprietary technology, Pilgrim, to detect a user's location. When users opt in to always-on location sharing, Pilgrim determines a user's current location by comparing historical check-in data with the user's current GPS signal, cell tower triangulation, cellular signal strength and surrounding wifi signals.[9][10] The service provides ten levels of Superuser.
In the past, Foursquare has allowed companies to create pages of tips and users to "follow" the company and receive tips from them when they check in at certain locations. [edit] Research/SEARCH. Simpleshow.
