Today, I attended a startup conference called Under the Radar | the Business of Web Apps: Where the Web Goes to Work

Of the some 30 companies that presented, Kwiry was one of my favorites. By texting my ever so important little snippets like "Catena Zapata" (that great malbec I just had with dinner) to Kwiry, 59479, not only do I receive an email with an online view of the aggregated search results relating to that great bottle of wine, but I've also accomplished something at which I have failed miserably over the last decade.  That is, to remember and follow up on all the interesting things I see and experience on a daily basis. 

One of the panelists duly noted that he never seemed to use the trusty notepad that comes on every handheld device, and to that I respond: "I have, and it sucks eggs!"  Now, I can send the text of that great spa one of my mates told me about and have it at my surfing fingertips when I get back to my PC.  Does this replace the mobile browsing experience?  No, but it sure fills the huge gap that current mobile technology strives to fill.

Better yet, if you are in the car and hear a great song, simply use the voice portal rather than trying text it.

Last but not least, Kwiry stores all my little snippets in one place, so I can share them with friends and not have to worry about managing all those imaginary stickies.
