Granny Alert Doorbell System

076/365

I recently went to visit my grama, she don't get around as much as she use to and it took awhile for her to get to the front door. By the time she made it there I had already went to the back door (bc i was born with tiger blood) and knocked. She walked towards the back and I went around front. It was a real Abbot and Costello bit for a few minutes before I was finally able to catch her at a door.

This gave me the idea for a notification system that informs the doorbell ringer that the person in the house recognizes someone is at the door and they should wait there until they make it there. This would end a lot of confusion and needless walking (even though walking is for winners).

Growl Web Apps Notifications

027/365

Growl the notification system for Mac OS X that allows applications that support Growl to send you notifications should invest some time in developing an API from web apps.

Growl for web apps would send a notification to your mobile device informing you of an update, message, email, ect. I'm not sure how this could be developed possibly to add a badge to a web app on the iPhone home page or a stand along app that notifies the user when any of their web apps are updated.

For example, when using the gmail web app on my iPhone it does not alert me audibly of visually so I must remember to check it thought out the day. That makes the web app practically pointless. The same goes of any of my web apps. This seems to be an important step in transitioning to the web 2.0 structure. If Apple's not going to implement it in iSO then someone else should. *cough* Growl *cough*

Saturday

Catching up on a few missed days.

These are concepts I've come up with but didn't have the time to post so this is my attempt at catching up.

iPhone Notification Record 018/365

You should be able to review past notifications on the iPhone. This feature would benefit trigger-happy people like myself who close the notification before it is actually read. I know of several apps that change the notification senting but I just want a simple list of the last several notifications.


iCal Added Feature 017/365

A user should be able to mark events in iCal completed. i.e. when bills are paid, ect.

How much am I making right now? 016/365

An app that has a rolling tally (up to the second total) of how much a user is making per hour. The user sets a start time and their wages/hour. Now every time the user goes back into the app it shows how much they're making up to the second. Should be able to schedule days, breaks and OT time. Keeps a daily, weekly, monthly, and yearly totals, hours and wage. Should also be able to edit hours for each day.


In-call Data Push 015/365

Sending information packets within a phone call like prescription numbers, address, social security number. This would save a lot of phone time, for instance, when a user calls to refil a prescription over the phone the operator asks for name, address, ss#, rx number. If all this information could be shared, like a caller ID number, and be secure the phone transaction would be effortless on both ends.



Relevantizing Facebook Sharing and Notification

005/365

When a user shares a link on facebook it should cross-reference the article/info of the page or video with the user's friends' activities/interests/posts to compile a list of friends who might interested in the topic being shared. The user could then select users to tag with the shared link. The link would be posted on the user's wall and those selected would be notified.

For example, if i found an interesting band on youtube and shared the link on my fb wall I would inform me who else is interested in that particular band and I could tag them in the post. All my friends could still view the link along those friends I choose to notify.
