Yes, I’m an idiot. I left a valuable piece of my property on your plane, Alaska. I know that you are not responsible for items left behind, it’s my fault, not yours. However, that was the last flight of the day and the item in question was out of sight of other passengers, but my [...]

I’m pretty sure that this app exists for other smart phones and I know that a similar thing exists for normal PCs. An App that scans the barcode using the built-in camera and then allows you to look it up on your choice of site: froogle, Amazon, whatever… To see if you want to buy [...]
yes, this one is for you redfin, windermere, et al. Normally, I’d sit on idea like this, but lets be real. I’m not going to write this one. So, as a customer, I’m asking you guys to do it for me. I want an iPhone app version of your websites. Obvious: Get me details on [...]
