So many online apps, so little time ..
I couldn't resisit adding the document I created using Google Docs. The Heart template was created by Frank Skibby Jensen. The text was my own.
The main winners once again with online applications in a library environment is the community Information and the Childrens/Young Adults departments.
However, three applications which can also be of great use to other staff members include:
1. Zamzar
No more "please send again in ___ format" as we are unable to view this attachment" reply emails need to be sent. Zamzar easily converts even the most obscure file into commonly used ones.
2. Senduit / YouSendIt
No more " You have reached you're email account limit. Please reduce your account" emails popping up and delaying you from sending another important email.
3. JOTT
This application using your mobile phone is great for people (aka me) who have fingeritis when it comes to creating text messages. Now you can use your voice to enter the message and have JOTT transcribe it and email it back to you. Fans of the handheld voice recorder rejoice. Good technology never dies it simply mutates!
One does wonder though just how accurate it is. Will I be receiving emails talking about the latest must read book "Porn" instead of prawn?
