Meldium - Securely Share Access to All Apps Your Company Use



If you’ve been part of a small- or medium-sized business or organization recently, you’ve dealt with “the spreadsheet.” It’s that document that’s tacked up on the wall (or shared via email) where all the group’s important login names and passwords are kept — the team’s Twitter, DropBox, LexisNexis subscription, et cetera.

It’s a mess to maintain in itself, of course, but the real problems come when people leave the team. Right away, an admin must go one by one through shared apps such as Yammer and WordPress and disable access to the group version. As for the spreadsheet? Well, here’s hoping nobody copied the information to take with them (and take the official Twitter account for one last joyride.)

It’s awful, but it’s the status quo. The good news is that a brand new company has created something much, much better.

Meldium tries to solve this problem, it created a way for small- to medium-sized businesses and teams to securely share access to all the apps they use.

Using it is simple: Once an admin has created a Meldium account for a particular group, all that’s required for team members to use it is the download of a browser extension, available in either Chrome or Firefox. From there, Meldium acts as a layer that signs in users to company apps without individuals ever having to actually type in passwords.

Koozoo - Social Video Aims To Build A Live Video Network With 24-Hour Footage From Old Phones


Koozoo is a twist of social video. The emphasis here is on utility, rather than performance and entertainment (though it can be entertaining, too). Wouldn’t it be useful to know if the weather is nice at a nearby park (though I suppose that example is best-suited for cities with microclimates like San Francisco’s). Or whether a nearby store or restaurant is super-crowded?

The initial concept revolved around old smartphones – if, say, there’s an old iPhone sitting in your drawer since you bought the iPhone 5, you can set it up as a full-time Koozoo camera. So if you have an interesting view outside your office or home, you can mount the phone on your window (Koozoo provides free mounting devices), plug it in, and connect it to Wi-Fi, then it will constantly stream footage that anyone can see — or rather, it will stream footage as long as someone is watching, so that it doesn’t hog your bandwidth unnecessarily.

You can download the iPhone app here, and sign up on the Koozoo site to be notified about the release of the Android app.

Demiba - Get the most out of YouTube music


Demiba automatically finds the highest quality video for each song to provide the best experience.

The idea is simple, there are many music services out there that offer good experiences, usually in the form of radios, but because they have to pay record companies for licenses to the music the experiences they offer can be limited, especially for free users. You might have a limited selection of music, a limited way you can listen to it, or a limited number of skips, for example. But all the music content you could ever want and more is on YouTube and usually in HD quality, everyone knows this. So what if you could tap into this plethora of music and build a great music service around it? Demiba is our attempt at that. 
Demiba offers customizable radio stations that allow you to add as many genre and artist seeds as you want. Additionally, you can explore music in natural and intuitive ways. Search for an artist and get a playlist of all that artists' music, or search for an album and get all the songs in that album. Adding to the experience you can also save music in a personal library and build a collection that is all yours
Demiba automatically finds the best quality video available for each song so you get the best music experience possible. We're just getting started, but we really enjoy Demiba and we hope you do too!
