Anyone can list their business or organization on Infoafricanow.com, along with its website. We have over 15,000 listings so far in less than six months. Our goal is to be the leading source of information for the continent of Africa.

How it beats the competition:
Infoafricanow.com came about as a result of lack of information on Africa on the Internet. Less than 1 per cent of the content discussed and written about on the web is directly about Africa. We wish to fill this gap by providing a portal which conveys relevant and necessary information on Africa unlike any ever seen on the web.

Get Free Things and Give Away Unwanted Items – Freally

Charles — Mon, 10 May 2010 15:30:31 +0000

What it does:
At Freally, we are concerned about our earth and we want to do our part by promoting recycling and reuse.

We achieve this by allowing our members to give away their unwanted items to others who may need them.

In return, you can also receive and ask for free items from others.

Through this, we encourage people to reduce the amount of rubbish, make others happy and also make this earth happier.

And let’s face it, who doesn’t want to receive free things?

How it beats the competition:
Our primary competitor is Freecycle network. Freecycle network is, however, an outdated, yahoo-group based system, which is extremely hard to use. Moreover, the whole process of giving and receiving items is complex.

On the other hand, Freally has streamlined and simplified the entire process of giving and receiving, so that there is literally no learning curve in using our website.

Lastly, with a help of the latest technology tools such as Google map and social media tools (Facebook connect, Twitter connect), we are providing our users a much better experience!

FunMobility – America’s Largest Mobile Content Community

Charles — Fri, 20 Nov 2009 18:22:52 +0000

FunMail Inc. provides carrier-grade animated and visual peer-to-peer messaging solutions for wireless carriers and network operators. Founded in 1999 and headquartered in Pleasanton, California, FunMail’s unique patent-pending technology analyzes short text messages, and dynamically generates relevant animations and visuals. FunMails are optimized automatically according to the capabilities of the receiving device. FunMail works with all major SMSc and MMSc models, including CMG, Logica , Ericsson, Nokia and Openwave. FunMail brings the power of visuals to wireless messaging, and integrates with a wireless carrier’s existing infrastructure, upgrading it to have intelligent visual messaging functionality. FunMobility provides our carrier partners with unique, revenue-generating content and applications highly desired by today’s mobile customers.

FunMail is releasing a new iPhone app that chief executive Adam Lavine says will finally convince people to use their phones’ multimedia messaging (MMS) capabilities.

It is called FunMail, and it automatically offers up suggestions of images you should send along with your text messages.

Lavine points to a study FunMobility commissioned from Frost & Sullivan showing that only one out of every 70 mobile messages is sent using MMS (i.e., a protocol that allows the sending of media, such as photos combined with text). That’s because the amount of images users have on-hand is usually limited to images taken with their camera, so it’s rare when they’ve got a picture that functions as the perfect illustration for the text message they want to send. FunMobility, on the other hand, has a library of images, and automatically recommends one to accompany your message, making the process much easier.

LayeredBrain – Monetize, enhance and analyze video content

Charles — Wed, 18 Nov 2009 15:26:13 +0000

With high speed Internet connections becoming widely available, the online video market is booming: 25 billion videos were viewed in September alone in the US, according to comScore statistics, twice as many as a year ago. This might get video-sharing site YouTube feeling all warm and cozy, dreaming about hitting break-even, but what about those people actually creating video content? When do they get to start seeing a profit? Romanian startup Brainient hopes to answer that question with its new video monetization platform,LayeredBrain, currently in beta testing.

LayeredBrain lets you add interactive elements to video content. For instance, if you have an iPod in your video, you can define a hotspot over it, attach a link to the product, and the link will automatically be converted to an affiliate link. The application supports around 7000 merchants and has access to over 65 million affiliate links so, unless you’re selling something really exotic, there’s a pretty good chance your product will be on that list. And if your videos feature the same product more than once, LayeredBrain will automatically detect and tag that product for you. The company’s developers are still playing with the detection technology, but they should have it in production within the next few months.

LayeredBrain also lets you create polls, cue points and chapter markers to guide viewers through the video, and add images or other elements on top of your video.

My6Sense – A Smarter Feed Reader for the iPhone

Charles — Fri, 13 Nov 2009 20:20:22 +0000

At this very moment, at this very villa in the Israeli city of Hertzeliya Pituach, the final preparations are being made for what can be best described as ‘TwitterSense’—a way to automatically filter your Twitter stream so that the most relevant Tweets come out on top. The location in question is the home of my6sense, which currently offers a powerful way to filter news feeds. It is applying its filtering technology to Twitter and by the looks of it you’ll soon be able to follow as many Twitter users as you want and still never miss out on the most important tweets.

It took insistent prodding on my part to get my6sense to spill some of the beans and give me a sneak peak. The good news is that TwitterSense (my term, not theirs) is real and it works. The bad news is that it’ll take a couple of more months to be deployed. And yes, it could greatly improve the way we consume Twitter streams.
