Docstoc has released a tool to let you send files (but not any file) from your desktop to their file transfer service and include a link in an email—Docstoc OneClick: Email Large Documents Without Attaching Files. The cool thing, I will say, is that you don’t have to wait for the upload to complete before […]

Not two weeks after taking the Webby award for Social Networking, last night Flock was honoured to receive two awards at the annual VIATeC Technology Awards dinner. VIATeC is the high-tech industry association serving […]

About a month ago Marc Gingras CEO of Montreal-based Tungle emailed me if I’d like to try the new version of Tungle. I had heard of Tungle, I knew it had something to do with planning and booking meetings, but hadn’t used it.

The future is the information stream
Last week one of the big news items was Seesmic acquiring the Twitter client Twhirl. This was bantered around a lot, but Marshall Kirkpatrick at Read/WriteWeb really nailed it, I think. Without hype or hyperbole Marshall saw what I saw as well–this is a glimpse of what we’ll be doing […]
