Other than FriendFeed? Aloqa. I think that is going to be big.Aloqa is a mobile platform and is how lots of businesses will get on iPhone and Android. - Robert Scoble from iPhone

I would tell @aplusk about @Wantsa. I haven't told you about it yet, but i know it's going to be big. Like, big big. - Colleen

Obviously, GOGII (my employer). Our app textPlus is on fire and the stuff we're building on top of boring SMS is freaking amazing. Our founders did JAMDAT (sold to EA), so we're loaded with mobile wizards. Plus, I'm hiring a Teen Ambassador to mentor to properly serve our entire community. /rant done. - drew olanoff

Collen: what does that do? - Robert Scoble from iPhone

Nice this is blow-mind following techniq. - Compuworki

Hi Robert! Check out http://www.linkedstore.com ...we build social stores for everyone..a good idea to open business easily, helps ppl out..Argentinean startup THANKS!!! - Agustin DL

Why, @offbeatguides of course! They're normal people who travel, and they want something to help them enjoy their travels more! ;-) - Ask Offbeat Guides

aahh and it's free - Agustin DL

I would never ever want to talk to any of his followers, dear lord, omg, where's the Tylenol. - James Watters

@Robert - wantsa (www.wantsa.com) is a recommendation engine... operates much like a search engine does, only it lives within social networks like Facebook, Ning and others. People recommend businesses, services and people, and businesses have the opportunity to post offers (deals, discounts etc) that come up when a user searches for a product. Not only does the business get to advertise just in time to targeted consumers in social networks, the users have the opportunity to raise $ for the cause of their choice through the system. it's very win win win. I should set up a demo for you, i think you'd love it. When are you in Vancouver next? - Colleen

Aloqa has a fatal error in their sigup for other phones :-( - Amit Morson

I would have to say @Pelotonics since it's what I've been working on everyday all day for the past year. We have a online project management solution (very crowded space, I know), though we have an eye towards integrating the tools you use for your personal productivity into the group setting. Like Evernote, Google Docs (we're going to be the first company to be able to truly push GDocs into the corporation), etc... - Daniel Marashlian

The GetVocal (http://getvocal.com) Surf-By-Tel voice browser allows you to surf the web with only your telephone and your voice! Their voice portal technology dynamically converts any website's HTML code to speech on-the-fly making our solution perfect for mobile professionals and/or visually impaired customers. - Chris Matthieu

Texas Tribune http://newsosaur.blogspot.com/2009... - Jay Rosen

Amit it is Android only so far. iPhone coming in next month. - Robert Scoble from iPhone

Link: http://textPlus.GOGII.com - drew olanoff

I'd tell them about http://gangplankhq.com. One of the best kept secrets outside Phoenix. - Tyler Hurst

Posterous - Noel Gomez

TwitSnaps, Robert...In another one month's time we are going to do something remarkable with http://twitsnaps.com. - K N Ajit Narayan

i will probably get a ton of backlash against this one....but im mega bullish on @foursquare - Tristan Walker

Yea, I'm loving @Foursquare - Daniel Marashlian

Colleen, how are services/companies joining the Wantsa network? Are they user entered or do they get entered from Wantsa? - Daniel Marashlian

Tristan: Foursquare has a lot of potential but I don't know that it delivers. - Robert Scoble from iPhone

Actually, I will have to wait for a Windows Mobile version, if they are planning one. - Amit Morson

Robert, agreed...still early. But if done right, it can change the way we think about LBS. Execution heavy, but im a believer. Smart guys steering the ship - Tristan Walker

Jay: that is interesting, I will be in Texas in a week and we should go and see them. - Robert Scoble from iPhone

what do u think is missing from it? - Tristan Walker

Next time you're in the Marina del Rey area, come see the GOGII/textPlus team, I should be out there for my regular week at a time sessions on off chemo weeks soon. - drew olanoff

Tristan: more locations. - Robert Scoble from iPhone

@Daniel It can happen either way. There;s a suite of managed services and businesses can do it themselves as well. Visibility is based on the amount of money they are willing to pay wantsa for the lead/survey etc (the biz tells wantsa what it is worth to them to get that lead) and a portion of that amount is donated to the charity of the user's choice, without a penny coming from the user's own pocket. - Colleen

@Daniel @Robert, Wantsa is currently an App in Facebook (but the UI needs updating), has launched on the 4real.com social network and is currently in talks with Ning's biz dev director to place us as a Family app with core integration coming down the pipe in the next 6 months (estimated) - Colleen

But Robert, you can input locations into the system as well. A pain, certainly but theyll figure it out soon enough. - Tristan Walker

I tweeted this - my favorite would be Better World Books (@bwbooks) an online bookstore (http://betterworldbooks.com) which raises money for literacy worldwide via used book sales, esp of books donated to local libraries - highly successful business model, does good many times over, mission driven (oh and funded by Good Capital here in SF) - Shannon Clark

5G Cell Phones which everyone will have soon http://www.5gcellphone.info - Jeff Grant

FourSquare is aiming to be the unofficial AddressBook in the cloud. Notice that when you friend someone they get all of your contact info and vice versa? Perty smart. - drew olanoff

drew i agree....the service at scale will be REALLY powerful for small businesses as well. This is the kind of LBS theyve been looking for - Tristan Walker

Jeff: Wow, that is the way forward! Are those currently available? - Daniel Marashlian

@foursquare - it just feels right and it feels like it has plenty of potential to grow organically and become a great resource for so many different avenues - Kathleen Forden

Aloqa needs some pricing info. If I have to make a call on that, I usually figure it's too expensive. - Kathy Fitch

The register for later announcements about other phones froze for me, as well. (Of course, their system is probably getting bombarded, right about now, so . . .) - Kathy Fitch

The others sound great, but @aplusk 's followers need to be aware of TribeHQ http://www.tribehq.com - a micro-blogging platform (not twitter) that has evolved the micro-blogging concept. In essence, different professional groups (tribes) - eg nurses, engineers, florists, teachers, embalmers connect with others in their occupation, with the tribal buzz, and enter into direct conversations with employers looking to recruit ("micro-jobbing"). Included is a reputation system and members can become tribal elders and lead a tribe. TribeHQ reduces noise and makes info relevant to a particular community. Some have referred to us as LinkedIn 2.0. - Paul Jacobs

DM me on Twitter for contact info for Texas Tribune if you need it, Robert - Jay Rosen

Robert, I'm surprised you didn't mention any of the recent partnership/acquisitions by Rackspace. What do you like there (that you can talk about). - Michael Fidler

I would let him know about @GoldMail. GoldMail is software that allows business people to quickly and easily create personal and powerful voiceover visual messages by making slides from virtually any content (including PowerPoint slides, PDFs, Text documents, and photos) and recording their voice over them. They then send a link to their message using any email service or post it online. - Kathryn Leuenberger

@aplusk is all about the democratization of media, so http://TweetReel.com - (Sharing video on Twitter with the 3GS) Plus, it's my start-up ;)! - Colin

Michael: I am a fan of JungleDisk. Great backup to the cloud. - Robert Scoble from iPhone

Kathryn: funny I have a video of Goldmail's founder I am working on. - Robert Scoble from iPhone

Scoble, I signed up for a Rackspace Cloud Site Friday, mainly because of you, and their service is anything by fanatical. It's terrible. And I'm not complaining just to complain. I owned a Furniture store for years, so I have a lot of respect for people who own and run businesses - Stephen Pickering

Robert, WideTag Inc http://www.widetag.com , we're building the next Internet, the Internet of Things. Any devices, from you Smartphone, toward your laundry or your car, will be interconnected, a Machine2Machine new comunication era. Our WideSpime infrastructure can deliver 16k/sec transaction per single core, something in near-realtime. - Luca Perugini from iPhone

FriendFeed, by far - LANjackal

Www.openyet.com the answer for finding business hours - Greg Birch from iPhone

Is FriendFeed a startup? It's been starting up for a looong time now. ;-) - Kol Tregaskes

reprap.org - Francesco Balducci

I love tokbox ! - johnpiercy

I forgot to leave my suggestion before. I see a lot of new startups here, but if I was going to suggest one, it would be posterous. - Michael Fidler

Holy crap the spammers are on froendfeed is nothing sacred - Mark from iPhone

I'm not sold on these location based services. Maybe in SF it's ok. I suppose this is a bit like Augmented Reality. - thinkQuick

It's November 2009, there's no spam on friendfeed and @aplusk is making a magazine on Http://GreenerMags.com and sharing it with is 10 million friends. - GreenerMags from iPhone

Well, if @aplusk is all about the democratization of media, then maybe an open source app for making media - www.celtx.com ? - Mark Kennedy

How about http://www.kickstarter.com? - Arvind

rhetorically: do @aplusk's followers really care about tech or cutting-edge sites, or are they more or less celebrity gawkers? btw, aloqa looks very interesting. it's time to start making the Web better on mobile devices - .LAG liked that

Annoys me on my iphone when I go to sites and it takes me to a gimped baby mobile version of their site - Mark

I'm excited about Aloqa - Johnny from BuddyFeed

Liking this for the acknowledgment that Twitter followers has an aspect of traditional media reach. Which it does. - Hutch Carpenter

why is he called Aplusk? - Mark

A+K - Mike Doeff from iPhone

Tell them about Etherpad. - Vezquex: God of FF

Why not tell them about something that is both a startup as well as something good for this planet? My vote is for @Jolkona (http://www.jolkona.org) (Note: I have no affiliation with them) - Trevin

Thanks to everyone who posted here. I'm having great fun exploring all of these sites and services. - Kathy Fitch

@realDVORAK says my recommendation is a crock. Say it here bub and give us YOUR suggestion! - Robert Scoble from iPhone

Let the clash of the titans commence..... popcorn anyone :) - Jim Connolly

Does Dvorak even use FriendFeed? Thought he was a Twitter guy these days? - Jim Connolly

Robert, you know that @realDVORAK is not actually John C. Dvorak right? John is @therealDVORAK - Steven (optionshiftk)

Good spot Steven. - Jim Connolly

Oopppsss, didn't know that. Thanks! - Robert Scoble from iPhone

Robert: Are there any fake Scobles? - Jim Connolly

Yeah, I just barely caught it.. it was convincing though, especially with the poser using the term "crock" which is a typical Dvorak phrase. - Steven (optionshiftk)

Robert - what about Blackberry users - we can't switch to Friendfeed 100%....Any suggestions? And can't give up bberry. OOPS - meant to post this to previous thread...But seroiusly, help for bberry friendfeed users...? - Liza

Jim: there are a few inactive ones. - Robert Scoble from iPhone

Robert: I thought there had to be a few out there somewhere. - Jim Connolly

@scobleizer - Blown away by such substantive engagement! Challenge your base with an opportunity to show off in front of an audience that they can relate to! Here's the rub - googling for a list of startups is both naive and futile, and would hardly expose sentiment. This seemingly simple question energized the base and satisfied the questioner's true intent - to query a group of early adopters as to the startups they've noticed, and why. Considering you're at startup conference, I can't imagine the question was random musing. - tony felice
