Got anything you've been working on in the last few weeks/months? Go ahead give us a short demo of it!
What does it do? What problem does it solve? When will it launch?
Basically you follow people and ask them questions that they can only answer by voting for one of two alternatives. Each alternative is illustrated with a photo that you upload.
The vision is that whenever you want to compare something (for example Xbox One vs PS4), you create a "match" on Photoficient. Debating happens outside Photoficient. Photoficient is only about voting. So even if you post your match on multiple social networks (Twitter, Hacker News, Reddit, Facebook, Google+, etc) you would be able to see who voted for a particular alternative within the people and organizations you follow on Photoficient.
Over the last 6 months or so I've been working with a small team to solve your email overload problem. We do this by fusing pattern recognition and data visualization in a cloud-powered mobile client that we call "Sailbox". Basically, our "secret sauce" prioritizes and separates incoming messages into semantically-related contextual groups; then, you can visually navigate the contextual space and easily swipe to take action on a group of related messages. The product isn't quite demo-worthy yet, we're still building out architecture, but it's close and I thought it would be worth mentioning here.
Sailbox is beginning early testing soon. If this is intriguing to you, please feel free to drop us a line at hello@solnovus.com and, well, say hello.
Portal Charts (http://portalcharts.com/) Sync your MetaTrader 4 Forex charts to your phone in under 60 seconds. Beta testing at the moment.
The majority of retail foreign exchange (Forex) traders trade using the MetaTrader 4 platform. Traders love marking up their charts with all manner of custom indicators. There is currently no straight forward way to view your desktop charts on your smart phone. Portal Charts solves this problem.
We managed to cut 60+ seconds off our original process by letting users sync their smart phones with their desktops using QR codes.
The repo on my local box goes by the name of "Sledge". The name is still TBD, hoping for an inspirational moment.
Its a specialized 'cloud in a box' type stack. Primary goal is to allow for scale applications that don't normally scale well inside a single machine, and scale them out until you hit the limits of your machine. Perfect examples are third party binary programs that assume you can only run one instance, or processes that need a lock on some kind of interface or file in order to function. I've had a few interested parties that want to see how it pans out.
Release... well i plan to demo it out in public for the first time while I'm at Pycon AU in Hobart (not a presenter just going to be there & showing anyone who's interested)
Gini (http://getgini.com) is a social spreadsheet app. I'm taking one single use case of Google docs - making lists collaboratively - and making it super awesome. Think of it like a Github of spreadsheets.
I am building a Cross-Platform Hybrid Mobile API Runtime for packaging Html/C#/Lua Apps into Android/IOS, where the device functionality like Bluetooth, NFC, Push is accessible using Ajax Web Services. Unfortunately, Mobile Browser/WebView sucks in low end android phones, though it is good in IOS
To overcome the performance problem have to eliminate the browser with a OpenGL Renderer which can render GUI generated using HTML, which i have started building, but still a long way to go.
The majority a CMS's are overkill for a simple website, Cloud Cannon turns Dropbox into a CMS you can setup in seconds. We launched a week ago - http://cloudcannon.com.
you might want to correct the type on your home page.
"Use the tools your love"
perhaps should read
"Use the tool you love"
in any case, an interesting idea, good luck.
CMS Harbor http://cmsharbor.com is a site to help provide research information for choosing a content management solution (reviews, comparisons between features, case studies, videos), then help you find an implementer.
This is came to fruition due to difficulties we encountered finding reviews and helpful research for choosing between a wide variety of CMS's in the past.
I am working on am intelligent locker system that will first be debuting in the ski market. Customers can put their skis/snowboards and belongings into a locker, and can use a mobile phone, RFID card or CC as a form of authentication. We are doing a beta test this winter at a ski resort. http://mysnowgate.com
