DEMO 06: Tuesday Afternoon
The Disruptors
Gravee
Collaboration
Polyvision
Thunder. Collaboration. Video Conferencing. Group computing. Three levels of collaboration: 1. Voice. 2. Data and information. 3. Video. Delivering information one screen at a time. Fundamentally change the way that people experience work and learning, while letting them work and learn the way they do. Hmmmm. K.
VSee Lab
Video conferencing in the browser. Half the bandwidth of current programs. Straight from computer to computer...no server interuptions. Can pan and zoom in from your desktop/laptop. Document collaboration features. Very little lag.
::I want...for future barcamps?
Better and personal ways to search...with tags and collaboration
Kaboodle - shopping search
Social search application for online shopping. Collect and share information on shopping pages. "User generated content for shopping" "You scrape the content for us" (mine). Simplifies how you search and store products for the web.Plum - personal search
Collect. Share. Connect. Solves the problem of the 'first you Google, then what?' Planning a party. Pull all of your various accounts together on Plum. Add your Plum collections to your blog. RSS feeds..becomes a live collection in plum. (what I'm listening to, etc. as well). Can tie you to other people who have similar tastes...as well as collaborating with friends. Private beta launched yesterday. Husband and wife schtick.
RawSugar - drill down search
Too many steps to get to the answer. Searching the search. Bicycle trips. Search for the worst place on earth. Water pollution. Del.icio.us. Hard to find. Can import Del.icio.us tags into Raw Sugar. Creates Hierarchies.
Riya - photo search
Okay this is us. Munjal is rocking the house. Totally rocking the house. And Riya (the product, not our sweet little namesake) is behaving as well. ;) We had ooooos and aaaaaas and clapping and breath holding. All good. ;)
TagWorld - tagging and shopping
Social tagging network. Comparisons of TagWorld to MySpace. 700,000 people signed up. TagWorld social commerce. Easy to set up your own store. Paypal. Negotiable model. Drag and drop store front. 2.5 minutes to set up store. eBay is gonna suffer. What about feedback? Hmmmm.... Oh...bidding. I guess you have to be a member to do this? I suppose this helps with the trust system. Not taking royalties. Photostack. Where did that come from?
::ahhh, the MySpace Generation. What a force to be reckoned with.
Tools for the Open Source Mafia
Krugle
Steve rocks. I sat beside him yesterday at lunch. A search engine for finding open source code. Programmers jobs are more about finding and assembling code rather than creating it from scratch. Source forge. Download. Unzip. Look at files. Will it work? Searching is hell. Takes longer than it should. Focused on very technical sites (not blog posts or articles that scratch the surface). Find the actual code. Source code files...opens in the engine. Preserves structure in code so that programmers can read it easily. Has a project view (locates the code within the overall project). Can even tag and share and collaborate.
::This is hot. I'm not even a programmer and I find it exciting. Good for future Mashpits and SHDH nights.
Jitterbit
Open source integration company. Collaborate with the Jitterbit community and create complex sites without knowing any code at all. Standards. Submit your stuff to open source community and have it standardized for you.
::is their source open?
IPswap
Changing software on your digital devices will become common. Share. Interact. We own so many digital devices. We are victims to the manufacturers whims - upgrades, swaps, etc. Developers and users available. Hooking up people with people who can fix stuff? Input in how your products work.
