FlowThing: an app to organize your search for...anything! (jobs, apartments, cars, air conditioners, match.com profiles, etc)

http://twitpic.com/2vedlp http://twitpic.com/2vef3n

You get a bookmarklet to save a listing from any site, keep track of the relevant bits of data (company, square feet, salary, bedrooms, mileage, etc), and move them through a little workflow (interested, applied, contacted, lost, etc). All the fields and workflows are completely customizable.

I built it after a simultaneous job and apartment search, having been incredibly frustrated that craigslist didn't have a "my craigslist" like "my ebay" or "my monster", and the fact that you're never looking at just one site when you're searching. I was always scared that I was applying to the same job or apartment twice.

It's been on the backburner for a while, since my day job has gotten busy, so there's no help available and signups are invite-only right now. But you guys seem like the kind of people who can figure it out pretty easily ;)

Here are some invite codes:

Out of curiosity, why invite only?


Not ready for open signups yet-- I don't even have a homepage explaining what it does, nor any help docs.

I'll try to bang some out next week...
