Once again, a Friday release of my 7 cool / useful things… several techy / geeky resources that I’m pleased to share: My 7 Cool Things Of The Day - SimulTravel, Basic Print, LifeAssist, Wertago, Twellow, and Montana GIS • iPhone App of the day - SimulTravel for iPhone - The new Simultravel GPS iPhone application locates hotels within the desired area, displays pricing information, and enables instant conversation with a live travel agent at the tap of a screen. Available for just 99 cents. • Blackberry app of the day - Cortado Basic Print - the app establishes a bridge between BlackBerry smartphones and Bluetoothr enabled photo printers. • S60 App of the day - LifeAssist, an innovative “Man Down” tracking application. Complete with GPS tracking, motion tracking, elementary signs-of-life check, biofeedback, remote camera activation, battery monitoring, and a voice-based interface.
• Google G1 (Android) App of the day - Wertago is a clever mobile application for nightlifers wanting to get up-to-the-second information about what venues are hot, share content and influence the social scene and view details on a map • Tweet of the day - From conservative Twitterer @ rmaynard: News: Obama declares that the $700+Billion Stimulus Plan saved 25 jobs in Columbus, OH. That’s $28B per job saved, yeah!!! • Twitter Add-on of the day - Twellow is a tool designed to help you connect with people that interest you. Simply key in a search term, then browse the results. Twitter users are presented to you based on you search term. • Free GIS Data Pick of the day - Montana GIS Clearinghouse. Select data from a list of available GIS data layers or simply bundle up data using the bundler application.
