Roundup : Grazr preview, Egnyte, Zude, Tabber, LinkMyBox

Filed under: tools, roundup

Grazr preview - like Snap preview but within feed content, that is preview a link as an image when you are reading in your RSS Reader. But it will work outside of your RSS Reader as well, basically you click the bookmarklet, and then shift-click on any link on the page, and you will see a preview of the last 10 posts. NOTE: the link you click on has to be on a webpage that has a feed…see another Grazr bookmarklet.

I have a new idea for Grazr, what about a drop down menu to choose an outline, just like Rollyo and Conduit.

Egnyte - file sharing similar to tubes. [via WW]

Zude - a startpage type of website creator [via mashable]

Tabber - sounds similar to Loopster, a meta-friends page. [mashable]

LinkMyBox - how many can there be, see Tabber directly above. [via mashable]

MySay : audio micro blogging

Filed under: blogs, mobile

MySay is micro voice blogging, it does for voice what Twitter does for text…this is not new, check out Evoca and Pheeder.

Create an audio snippet on the phone or record on the web, or upload an mp3 file on the web, also on the web you can type in text which converts to audio. You can add non-MySay friends to your list, so when you create a new snippet they are emailed an update (I think they will have to listen to it on the web).
To listen to your friends dial a number and listen or enter a code of the person you want to listen to.

Notifications are by email or SMS.

Also plenty of widgets, even to greet your blog visitors, see an example on the MySay blog sidebar.

I wish I could email an audio attachment from my phone email, kind of like what Emailtwitter does for Twitter.

And how would I receive updates by email attachment, again an EmailTwitter type solution…I couldn’t even do this myself using an RSS to email solution like Rmail as my snippets, or friends timeline doesn’t have an RSS feed.
Even so would Rmail include the audio enclosures as attachments?

In other news, I’ve asked Rmail if regular images in feed content could be included as attachments in an email (due to my phone email not accepting rich text inline, but it will, as an attachment).

For photo micro blogging, see NowThen, and then put it all together with Yodio.
