Cool Websites #6
August 22, 2011
ZoomText user Kathy Kalaluhi sent in a bunch of websites that she thought other ZoomText users would find interesting and helpful. We liked the idea so much that it’s become a regular “column” in ZoomNews! Below are her suggestions and if you’d like to submit any websites for the next issue, please email them to Becca at !
- Baseball Road Trip - This site is a free shareware for planning road trips to attend baseball games.
- Some other sites that provide you with tips on what you might expect in planning a road trip:
- Nero KwiKmedia - a free online storage site that allows you to store music, videos and pictures. You can purchase add-ons to this service so that you can burn your home videos to Blu-ray, DVD and move either pics or music to mobile devices. It is a one stop shop for storage rather than storing pics on one place and music on another etc.
And a new category of sorts: “Best fruits in the orchard” - the best Mac apps for iPhone, iPod Touch, and iPad!
- Vlingo - a voice command app that allows you to text, email, call, or surf the web by simply commanding it to do so. For instance, if you say text Mary and then “let’s meet for drinks”, it will bring up the contact and type the text. You can also just ask a question and Google will automatically generate a search.
- Splash Top - an iPad app that’s a wireless remote to access your desktop so that you can create or edit docs or spreadsheets. It’s also available for the iPhone and iPod Touch.
- Trip It - an app for iPad, iPhone and iPod Touch. It stores all info for your business travel. Provides a GPS map of your trip, reservation information for air travel, info on airport seat assignments, etc. It also works with Trip It on the web.
Thanks to Kathy for these great suggestions!
