It's good to know that some startups listen! Kwiry, the mobile-integrated reminder/task management system, shot us an email today with a list of site updates that address just about every concern I had during my initial review.
[img src="" caption="" credit="" alt=""]Therefore, I'm very happy to see that Kwiry has added calendar integration, meaning you can subscribe to an RSS Calendar or even import tasks into your calendar. One of the major problems I had with Kwiry was its limited and overlapping search capabilities, given the search verticals presented on the site. Kwiry has improved on this with the addition of new search categories, which include local and shopping, to help you find comprehensive search results in a more efficient manner. Layering in some additional mobile integration, Kwiry has smartly tacked on Jott integration so you can call in your reminders and tasks.
The other updates found on Kwiry have more to do with the social side of things. There's a message system for users to communicate directly with each other, a friend finder, and improved community browsing tools. I actually like the added community tools, because there are a lot of times where I can benefit from the public reminders of others, given the bookmark-like quality of Kwiry. One suggestion I had for Kwiry that the team was unable to address is the mobile access point. In regards to mobile access, Kwiry had this to say:
With regards to your last comment on the article we still think that
the mobile browsing experience stinks so we haven't focused on
allowing people to check kwiry from their mobile. It's on our project
list, but we still think texting is the best way to send in reminders
and then you can explore them or add them to your calendar when you
get back to your computer (with a full monitor and keyboard).
