The authors of the project Aloha RealEstate are from an endangered group of philanthropists and altruists. The task of their project is to save money for those who decided to spend it on real estate.
The site’s work strategy is practically robingudovskaya: from the money that could have been spent on a real estate agency, the service that actually takes over the agency’s functions leaves an average of $ 10-20. Project author George Knabe explained how this can be. +++



The Sport2online project is designed for football fans who are ready to “watch” matches converted to text: the service broadcasts live matches using SMS messages. The idea is not new - the text commentators of matches are alive and well not for the first month ( http: //www.eurosport. ru / , http://www.championat.ru/ , http://www.sports.ru/ ). In Sport2online - the traditional advantage of the "new" - starting the service, the authors could take into account all the errors and shortcomings of the "old ones". +++

The phrase “ Geome is a service platform that provides everything you need to develop and host geolocation services” is very informative. However, only for those who know what geolocation services, hosting, platforms are and why all this needs to be developed. Taking this into account, the project creators sent us a meeting and explained everything on their fingers: “Let's draw an analogy with the construction of a house. Geome is the foundation, communications, building materials and variants of the drawings. Any developer who wants to create a geolocation application can take an application template and customize it for their own needs, or they can write a new one from scratch. ” +++


Suppose you have already come to read books from Kindle, morning news from iPad, and mail from laptop screen. The last refuge of paper is official documents, and in addition, traditional printed materials (for example, the catalog of your company's products). The Deluxe Catalog does not yet know how to get rid of official papers. But he knows how to turn printed materials and electronic documents into beautiful and neat online catalogs. As usual, to the joy of environmentalists. +++

Do you like your TV? Besides jokes, do you like it?
He, of course, shows the order of hundreds of TV channels, reports to you about what exactly you are watching - and, in general, behaves like a good modern TV.
The authors of the project WeFire.ru have their own idea of ​​what “modern TV” is. Modern TV does not need anything except access to the Internet: you connect the "box" to the network, specify the address of the site - and get at your disposal thousands of channels. All this is the most modern: without antennas, consoles and cable. +++

There are a lot of sites selling concert tickets, to say the least (recall at least www.songkick.com , www.eventful.com and http://www.jambase.com ).
The Gigographya project is not so different from competitors: it is also an aggregator of musical events, allowing you to purchase tickets for concerts, parties, festivals, and so on. But with its own features. +++


There are more than one or two video services for a long time, but everything arrives and arrives in the regiment (recently we wrote about the VideoPara service on Wanted.VC).
A couple of days ago, we learned about the next addition: Blabman service announced itself , promising to connect everyone with everyone - so that everyone would be happy. +++


The project AR23D was designed to maximize the aestheticization of a rather utilitarian thing - advertising.
The creators develop and license marketing and advertising solutions based on 3D augmented reality technology. You can use them on the platforms Android, Symbian, Windows, as well as the iPhone and iPad. +++


The idea of ​​the Markeeper project came up with the author of the service, Andrey Stepikov, when he was desperate to bookmark pages on which he really only needed a couple of phrases.
“The first solution that came to mind was to select only the necessary text and save it somewhere, it immediately disappeared, in almost 100% of cases it was a loss of formatting or the necessary arrangement of information, which immediately lowered its value to me. Further, more interesting solutions were tested, - an extension for Firefox, which skillfully edited the page and saved an already modified version to the hard disk. It was fun exactly to the fifth save, when it became simply laziness to remove unnecessary elements. A deeper search for solutions to the problem did not produce the desired results, ”writes Andrey.
Well, the salvation of the indignant is known whose hands it is. +++


Remember the shot from the movie “I, Robot”, where the girl scientist, being in the apartment of the hero Will Smith, tries to turn off the roaring music center, ordering him to “Deactivate!”? The creators of the Speaktoit project decided to give voice control to humanity. To do this, in your smartphone "prescribe" personal assistant. Ask him for help will have to politely, humanly. +++
