SMap for BlackBerry Storm is now out in the wild and Twitterified
January 26th, 2009
We’ve been working hard on a new, quicker, cleaner, leaner, meaner, brighter, thinner, lighter, and tighter version of SMap for the BlackBerry Storm.
In addition to some rather nice new screens for both the Storm and older BB’s, we have twitterfied SMap too! If you use SMap to record routes live on the web and you enter your Twitter account details in the settings screen. Your route details, activity and a link to your live route will automatically be added to your Twitterfeed.
User feedback from the previous BlackBerry releases means that we have improved how SMap records the accuracy of your route. If you are running around in a town with lots of right angles and tight turns, you can now in Settings set the accuracy of your route down to recording a waypoint every 20m. If you are cycling like a dervish 40 miles down a long, straight highway then you can set the accuracy to record a waypoint every 80m.
Non-Storm users, and BlackBerry traditionalists do not despair! we have updated all the screens for you non-touch phone users too! Give it a go and Share your adventures on Sanoodi.
SMap can be downloaded and used for free here.
Sanoodi Draws Attention @ Mobile 2.0 Event
February 24th, 2008
Amidst all of the pre-launch madness, Sanoodi’s Paul Sandham, was able to take a brief trip afield on 21 February to present at the Mobile 2.0 event in Manchester.
The conference is part of the Northern StartUp 2.0 series for entrepreneurs, investors, deal makers and service providers interested in digital start-ups. Paul joined Dr. Norman Lewis (Wireless Grids), Eric Hobson (Hands On Mobile Europe) and Ed French (Enterprise Ventures) on stage to demonstrate how Sanoodi is making the convergence of mobile internet devices and websites into a viable business model.
“Mobile 2.0 was the best attended event I’ve been to so far – in excess of 30, which is good – and my bit seemed to go down very well,” said Paul. “In fact, Rhys Jones and I were caught up in a couple of positive discussions with potential investors. Our strategy of developing and maintaining separate applications for each key mobile platform is the only viable option and people responded to that.”
