Advice from Dr. Share More: How I learned to Stop worrying and Start loving the Information Overload!
While cautiously brooding over the impact of frictionless sharing in our lives, i felt it apt to borrow a leaf from the title of one of the greatest satirical movies of our times about a nuclear scare triggered by the actions of a crazy general. The nuclear apocalypse foreseen due to the policy of MAD (mutually assured destruction) bolstered by the buildup of missiles by proponents during the cold war formed the basis for that satire by Stanley Kubrick. The parallels couldn’t be more glaring if one were to comprehend the “MAD” scenario of universal information explosion that warring software … Read the rest

Zukmo: Ahead of the Curve
One of the many responsibilities of working in the rapidly evolving software industry is the need to rapidly respond to new trends and developments. One such development that really caught our eye was the recent acquisition of $2.5M in funding by Readitlater, a company with a product that many have pointed out to us very much resembles Zukmo. Given the a obvious similarities, we decided that we’d take the opportunity to outline what actually make Zukmo and Readitlater very unique products.
Though we could write paragraph after paragraph about why Zukmo and Readitlater aren’t exactly in the same market space … Read the rest

Want free WiFi? Head to the G.Y.M.

Apologies for the corny headline. This has nothing to do with working out.
But it is good news for all those laptops that are backing up online…

Why Google will kill the “I’m feeling Lucky” button
Google is key to our business! We spend a lot of time studying how people looking for online backup solutions found us – through the organic & paid results on Google.
