I’ve written before about trying to use my BlackBerry to the fullest extent possible. It just so happened that the shift to mobile computing coincided with my fight against spam, and I ended up moving away from Microsoft Outlook completely at the end of April.
There has only been one piece missing from the puzzle – something Outlook did very well but I wasn’t able to replace: Notes.
Sometimes when I have a flash of brainstorm while I’m out & about, the fastest way to capture a thought is to jot down a couple of sentences in a BlackBerry Memo. Heck, I’ve even typed a whole blog post on my BB. But if I can’t sync the memo with an application on my computer (or online somewhere), I have to re-type the note later.
Yesterday I discovered Upvise, an online application with lots of bells & whistles, but most importantly it offers a BlackBerry Memo Sync! It also offers things like Shopping Lists, and the ability to real-time sync multiple BlackBerries to one list (so 2 people can grocery shop at different stores & check off items as they go, for instance.) Oh yeah, and it’s a FREE service.
Just thought I’d share..
Your getting ready to upgrade his BlackBerry, but that’s another story, Realtor,
