A couple of days ago, Simon Wüthrich published a nice article in the Zürichsee Zeitung on how to best plan your next holiday trip, say to Rome. (Why not Paris? We'd have a movie for the travel case to the city of romance). We get a nice mention. Read the article here (pdf, 245kb, German)
Last week we launched memonic.com at the Swiss Innovation Forum in Basel. We went there with no expectations. We haven't been there ever before, so difficult to gauge any potential interest.
We were positively surprised. From 9am to 7pm we were pitching our solution quasi non-stop to dozens of conference visitors. Most surprising was the genuine interest from corporate quarters. The guests at our booth immediately saw the potential of our solution when applied to their everyday humdrum problems when doing research, say in a bank or in a large pharmaceutical company. And that even though our solution still lacks crucial collaboration features.
It goes without saying that we will strive hard to come up with a package that will surpass the expectations.

True in Nektoon colors, but then we had to hand-in
all materials back in August, when the name was
still pending legal clearance.
Since it we had quite a ride. Our quiet launch policy is simply due to the fact that even we ourselves still miss a number of features dearly in the public version. Yet it took off quite heavily: Lot's of tweets on Twitter, and quite a number blog posts and some media stories. See for yourself (Collected press clippings).
Thank you for your warm welcome of memonic.com!
The Institut für Jungunternehmer (Institute for Young Entrepreneurs) runs a nice story on our up and coming product: Finally some order for your online information (in German).
