What is Bento? When I began reviewing Bento, I was very wary. I have been a Microsoft user for many years and know how tough a database program can be. I had to configure databases in Access, (Microsoft’s personal database solution.) Then I downloaded the demo of Bento with all of these fears in my mind. But I figured that I liked the other Mac applications that I have been using, I gave Bento a shot. [Continued]
There’s a new Twitter app on the streets, it’s called TwitterFone! It’s pretty simple but it’s backed up by some freaking awesome technology. In a nutshell, TwitterFone makes it possible to “tweet” through Twitter without having to type or text anything. You just talk and it transcribes it for you and posts it to your Twitter account.
TwitterFone launched this last week (May 6th to be exact) and has had over 15,000 signups in the last 4 days thanks to some really cool people helping promote the new service. I caught Pat Phelan (the idea guy) on the road and even got a chance to ask him a few super quick questions about the new startup. Here’s how our little convo went:
This is a question that I get asked (as well as ask myself) all the time. What is the best Twitter App?

Plainly said, MarsEdit is a flat-out awesome way to post to your blog. (Of course I created this post in MarsEdit) There are just so many features and reasons to use it, I don’t know where to start so I’ll just link to Shawn’s perfect post and not even try.
A couple months ago, I met a guy by the name of Michael Bailey. He’s got this nifty little company that allows for audio commenting on websites and is in feverish development of a video version as well. I thought I might throw the little applet up here on iBAM for the masses to play with. I’m curious as well. So, here you go…
Play away and let me know what you think (or anything else that happens on your absent mind at the time, haha)
I can’t wait to hear your “lovely” thoughts… Bring it! [Continued]
