I just saw the first Screenshots on iPhone Atlas. Just like in my prior mentioned iPhone SDK post - jailbreak procedure members like Nicholas “Drudge” Penree will make sure to use this new SDK creatively. View more Images here >>
vawkr - instant group video chat
 |
Look Who’s Talking! - is the slogan of vawkr* - a nice instant video chat solution that allows you to put a video chat room on MySpace, Facebook, blog or any website. All you need to do is share your chat room’s URL.
This startup currently allows you to instantly “Grab a Room” and create a temporary online chat room that you and your buddies can use, without any sign-ups, forms or downloads.
crgslst - craigslist multi city search
 |
crgslst is an ajax driven search tool that allows you to search craigslist faster and scour multiple cities quickly.
From what I can tell this is an excellent tool and I wish there was such a thing for ebay.
You are able to search, define your locations and it will keep track of your past searches too. The results allow you to preview the listing, open it in a new window and the best thing is that you can bookmark specific items by clicking the “{ remember }” link.
If you use craigslist you might welcome this solution, I still think a price, date or location sorting option would have been nice to have. But maybe thats what they talk about on their options page.
Amazon To Enter Wine Business
 |
Amazon is starting to sell wine to US customers and according to FT.com, is currently trying to recruit a senior wine buyer who will be responsible for “the acquisition of the new massive product selection”.
In the US, online alcohol sales is a difficult market since there are a multitude of laws in different states. But maybe now is a time to jump on the train for a lot of wine retailers since the US Supreme Court ruled in 2005 that state governments are not able to prohibit residents from ordering from out-of-state wineries.
The Amazon giant invested $30 million into Wine Shopper ( 1999 ) - but the site only lasted one year ( autsch ). The current Wine Sales for 2007 totaled $30 billion in the US - I wonder how the gallon of gas compares to wine.
