My life is pretty organized but not nearly as organized as it could be. To try and help solve the problem that I and millions like me face, my good friend Eric is one of the people who founded a new company called Convos.
Convos is an internet-enabled service designed for individuals and groups to easily communicate, collaborate and organize. Yes, that sounds sufficiently vague, maybe because “the Convos application is currently being developed and will launch in early 2007” so they are light on details. Here is the scoop on why they are developing this app:
Often, an organization or individual is saddled with multiple email accounts, instant messenger accounts, passwords and usernames. A person may be using one application for managing his contacts, another for organizing events, and yet another application for file sharing. These disparate platforms exemplify a lack of data standardization resulting in organizations and individuals wasting valuable time, spending more money, losing contacts, and compromising security.
Consequently, there is an intrinsic need to integrate these services into a simplified, organized, and standardized platform. Convos is that platform.
Sounds cool – but the proof will be in the pudding as they say. In the mean time, I plan on checking back every now and then to read the blog and to see if they have updated anything. Bon chance mon ami!
