Memolane Makes Web Memories Last



Memolane is a venture-funded startup that hasn't opened to the public yet, but if you look around online you can find some invite codes that are still valid. This is really cool stuff.


The service makes it easy to scroll through your personal history, or the history of your friends who use it, and see a wide variety of social media activity data all bound together by time.


Memolane raised $2 million this Fall from August Capital and Atomico, the venture firm run by Skype founders Niklas Zennstrom and Janus Friis, according to coverage by Jason Kincaid on TechCrunch.


Hopefully an iPad version of this will be available, too. It looks like something made for the iPad.

HasWifi -To check your flight have Wifi

HasWifi tracks Inflight Wifi availability across thousands of daily flights and several major carriers through a combination of flight data mining and user contributions through a “You Tell Us” feature that allows visitors to vote Yes or No whether their latest flight had inflight internet available.

At the moment HasWiFi can only search six U.S. carriers, but founder Anthony Petito hopes to expand that pool of data soon. He also plans to offer an API so that other sites like Expedia can search HasWiFi data, eliminating the need to find a cheap flight on one site, figure out if it has Wi-Fi on another, and then go back to the original to purchase your tickets.
