Authentic Blogging

Viewdle - video search with face recognition and more. Very cool. Check it out. Revolutionary.

Wuala - “the skype of online storage”. Simple, neat. Watch these guys.

Mixin - a really exciting new way to organise your (online) social life. Gra is going to love it. Destined to be very popular with the Twitter/Dopplr/Upcoming… possibly even the Facebook set. Can’t wait to try it out with the Brighton/London folk. Well mashed and stirred. “Social applications have a long way to go, currently in their infancy and strangely disappointing.” Mixin is meant to take things on to the next level. Let’s see how it goes. “Helping you digest the noise”. Scoble is rawther juiced up about the whole thing. Rightly so.

Pixelux - interactive physical simulation technology…. brand/media experience channels, multi-sensory. Takes the stuff we have seen in conceptual art spaces forward into super slick stuff that the retail marketing folk will clamour for. It will be in our face, seducing us to buy buy buy before you can shake a mouse at it. But beautiful, beautiful stuff. Will be good to see what the cultural and heritage sector can do with it. LCD, Plasma screen, projection on to floors.

Cocomment - “Helping you track your conversations on the web.” You know how we struggle to manage our conversations in the blogsophere? Well here’s a great free tool that really helps. Let’s all get on and give a go… Enhances conversations, helps you track what you said and who said what to whom. The speed has improved a lot recently. More work to be done on the useability we hear from early adopters (eg. Scoble). Another social networkto maintain though? I’ll let you know…

clipperz - “think of it as a web rollodex”… “free and anonymous online password manager”

and more to come.

Downloading Wuala closed alpha trial right now, just registered for cocomment. Love it. Love seeing the response from the expert, whizzbang panel, asking all the tricky questions that Gra would be thinking and asking if he was here. Sniff.

So far every venture that’s been chosen is fantastic. Really enjoying being in at the ground level with “The New”.

Somewhat ashamed to have posted the question about “where else if not Venture night…” on the LIFT community blog.

Battery just about dead, brain full, drinks are calling… out the door right now…
