I imagine the developers of this one have a huge ambition of their own and that is to actually develop something worth logging in to. As it stands I really can’t see the point of it at all. Billed as a platform where you can "maintain a public list of all of your big ambitions in life" the site has been around since the middle of 2011. Looking at the members however they all seem to have registered within the last couple of months so it’s obviously taken a while to get off the ground. The issue I have though is ... Read more
Right, are you sitting down because this does get a little complicated? I've never seen a social network that works quite the same way that The Four Finder does. It seems to take the adventure aspect of Four Square and marries it to a social network as another way of introducing you to possible new friendships. The other things this social and mapping has that the others don't is a very cool name and a secret sign for members. But more about that later. The Four Finder helps you to meet new friends. If you want to introduce yourself ... Read more
Despite there being a glut of social media sites that let you share your photographs on the Internet there always seems to be a place for the Instagram technology - especially amongst iOS users. It's still one of the simplest ways to quickly snap off a photo and share it with your friends. Photopile is a photo sharing app not unlike Copygram or Extragram that takes your feed from Instagram and let's you share and display any of your photos there in a Polaroidish and highly attractive kind of way. It displays them almost like a deck of cards splayed ... Read more

It's all very well to create your concept - whether it be a piece of art, a website or even a piece of music you've written - but how do you know if it's any good or if it's even sellable. Maybe with the right word in your ear it could be tweaked or improved. You could ask your partner,family or friends but would they be subjective enough to really help? Probably not. Peerdea is a social feedback app that is designed for artistic people to get critical appraisal on their minor masterpiece by their peers. That is, other artisans ... Read more
It’s not easy to see where the pitch is for this one but perhaps some additional developments are on the cards to give it more appeal. I hope so because as it is, a few lines of type seem a little miserly to make someone wait ages for. The concept is simple and very easy to use. Type a message in the text box, scroll through the calendar function and set a date and precise time for the message to be available for the recipient or recipients to read. You’ll then be sent a unique URL which you can pass on ... Read more

But it doesn't want some rambling account of the allegorical meanings of the director's latest magnum opus. Ginq wants a short precise 160 character assessment of the film that you can share with your friends. If you are looking for a place to ... Read more
