I can see this one providing endless hours of fun and endless hours of hangovers starting the day after the party. It’s also probably a good idea for this post-Christmas time of year when most of us have got a load of half-drunk bottles of all sorts sitting in our cupboards. That bottle of sweet vermouth for example that you had to get in for Auntie Betty or the sherry your mum likes but only ever has one glass of is often redundant once the festivities are over but with Bartender you can get mixing!

We rely on our memory so much, don't we? But between our work life and our leisure time there are just so many things to remember yet we admonish ourselves when we forget a birthday or forget to pay a bill on time and incur a penalty fee.

But this one doesn't just remember - it will send you an email or an SMS to remind you to buy that present for your Auntie Doris or pay that Amex bill on time. ... Read more

It is said that many businesses spend up to 80% of their time collecting and analyzing data and creating reports. While this is an admirable trait as it's essential to know what your customers want and how well your business is running, 80% is a ridiculous amount of time to spend on it when that time could be used making business decisions rather than overanalyzing them. Cyfe is a web-based business and analytical set of tools that helps you bring all your business metrics into one single location. What impact can an 80% loss in performance have on your ... Read more
Now come on! Does anybody seriously collect beer? The whole notion of someone actually collecting beer sums up an image of a guy opening the fridge or cupboard door, staring admiringly at the bottles (and maybe even stroking a few) before closing it again still thirsty. In the loosest sense of the term I suppose that I am collector of beer but in the Homer Simpson mould. I collect a slab on a weekly basis and would you believe it I have to collect another load a week later! Read more
If you’re made of the sort of money that allows you to keep 500+ bottles of wine in your cellar then $49 a year for this site’s premium plan will seem like a spit in the ocean. I can usually manage to rack up about 30 bottles pre-Christmas, however, they never seem to make it much past New Year’s Eve and although I’ve often thought about keeping the labels in a scrapbook of the one’s I like it’s always something someone else does. Anyway if wine’s your passion, as a collector as well as a guzzler I might add, then this one ... Read more

Sorry for the pun but I’m afraid this one leaves me a bit cold (Ed - there goes another rib...). What’s funny is that a lot of apps promote their ability to help you cut down on clutter such as scraps of paper and Post-It notes whereas this one actively encourages you to recreate the same squalid looking mess on your PC rather than stuck to your fridge door. If you’re a Facebook user you can create an account and set up your own efridge and what’s more you can post notes on any Facebook user’s efridge. Just why you’d want to ... Read more
