I’m still playing with my new JasJam. I haven’t bricked it yet, but still can’t figure out a few things. Exploring the world of mobile applications has been fun.
An interesting new tool I thought worth mentioning is the Unyverse mobile wiki. It’s only been around for a few weeks, as far as I can tell.
It’s free to set up an account, which enables synchronisation of wikis between your phone and a personal web site. The wikis can be simple notes, RSS feeds, contacts or whatever you want them to be.
I typed in a test note on the web, then saw it on my phone seconds later.
Sure, you can synchronise data between Outlook or OneNote and the phone, but that requires a physical connection (eg USB, bluetooth). The beauty of Unyverse is that you can send information to your web-enabled mobile from any desktop and vice-versa.
I’ve been searching around for a free pocket PC feed reader and Unyverse performs that role as well as any other I’ve seen so far. It also provides an easy mobile-friendly Wikipedia search.
And you can measure how much data you have transferred.
I can see myself using this application quite a lot, especially if the feature to import contacts is added later this month as promised.
