It used to be that the best form of advertising for your movie was purely word-of-mouth. When you saw a movie that you liked you would tell your friends who would tell their friends and so on. The movies became a very social occasion. MovieGoer is a social movie and video sharing app for your iPhone that tries to put the social back into movie going. It uses peer pressure to encourage more people to actually go to the movies rather than catching a film on video. MovieGoer is a new kind of mobile app that applies social networking ... Read more
If you’re getting a little frustrated about your inability to gauge distances on the golf course, and before you hurl that pesky five-iron into the nearest water hazard, you might want to check this one out. The swing and pray method, although not very Tiger Woods, might be sufficient for the casual golfer who sees the occasional round as more of a nice walk often ruined. For the earnest golfers out there however, the sickening splash that confirms their choice of club was one short can often send them straight to the analyst’s chair. Read more
As a sports club treasurer myself I know exactly how much unpaid time and effort goes into getting the books straight and making sure there is enough money in the bank to pay for kit, buses, food and that nasty smelling spray that seems to cure all aches and pains. How nice it is then to see an app especially built for us unsung heroes of the sports field. As the guys behind TreasureEase point out, most people who blindly volunteer for the role are not accountants and therefore the pleasure of navigating Excel spreadsheets will come as a bit of ...

Every single DVD retailer these days seems to have it's own pricing policy on individual titles. Some will use individual titles as a loss leader while some will buy large amounts of stock on a good selling title when it hits the right price. Yet quite often, if you just do a straight order on a specific title it will come back to you at the full list price. It makes far more sense to see who is selling it the cheapest at any given time without having to do all the leg work. Watchily compares the price and availability ... Read more
Having access to the question paper before sitting an exam would obviously give you a considerable advantage but few of us have ever had that luxury. It strikes me as slightly comical therefore that a group of business school students have got together to develop a site that aims to give you the answers to questions that might arise when you’re being interviewed for a management consultant post.

It is a fundamental human trait to need to ask questions and get responses. In the old days when we tended to live in smaller communities this was possible with face-to-face communication. However, as society has grown it has become impractical for one person to communicate their thoughts and news with everyone on a daily basis. Then newspapers and printed media entered the scene offering content and insight to a broader crowd. Then came the digital age and then came CivicBoom. It's a news app that connects the people that have news content with the people that need it. Read more
At first glance I thought this app, which helps fitness coaches keep in sync with their athletic clients, was a little quirky. The whole thing kicks off not with any coaching schedules or exercise tips but with an overview of the financial health of the business. Think about it for a second though and it makes complete sense, after all, the coach is running a business like anyone else and apart from keeping on top of the workload needs to make sure it’s paying too.
