Wall Shelf with built-in MP3 Player!

Wow, this is a really great idea for a wall shelf/MP3 player.  Designed by NoDesign.

You have to see this cool technology that is called Wazz AL and is designed by NoDesign. In a few words Wazz AL is a bookshelf which can play the music, and with very cool control panel, you can see more by watching the video from this post. Waaz AL is a shelf connected to a computer that doubles as a device for audio diffusion and archiving digital music files (MP3).

Web2.0 Expo 2008 - SpringNote - Wiki-based Online Notes

Posted in Consumer, Cool, Documents, Educational, Freeware, Shows, Web, Web2.0 Expo, WebApp, Wiki by max on the April 24th, 2008 at 9:02 am

HeeKyong Yoon from SpringNote.com, was nice enough to chat with me on their cool “wiki” product, SpringNote:

FYI, SpringNote.com is a subsidiary of NcSoft.com, the creators of legendary online game, Lineage.

Well, I tried out SpringNote, here’s a screenshot:

zedomax-spring-note

It’s very simple to use, just like a real notebook except you have unlimited number of pages plus you get bunch of already-made templates like Bookshelf, Monthly Plan, Recipe, and etc…etc…

What I found most interesting was that it is a “wiki” site but you don’t need to know any wiki markup language and start editing your online notes right away. You also have the option to share your notes or keep them private.

As far as technology goes, I love the fact that SpringNote has incorporated a LOT of AJAX. (probably mostly AJAX)

I might start using it more real soon. The only downside I saw was that SpringNote’s servers are hosted in Korea. Although the site does fairly fast, I measured, 168ms ping times from my PC in San Francisco.

FYI, Zedomax.com get 41ms ping times, 4 times faster as servers are hosted in San Diego, California.

Although they could keep running servers from Korea, I think they can grab much larger audience in the U.S. by simply serving their pages from servers in the U.S. (Besides, it’s probably much cheaper to host it here.)

Other than that, I find SpringNote as the next generation online note web app. I will have to dump my MS Outlook all together and start using SpringNotes, way simpler and easier for mass collaboration.
