IMified

IMified: http://www.imified.com/index.htm

from their website -- "Imified is a productivity tool that offers instant access to a growing number of web applications over your instant messaging client. Imified simply helps you get things done faster."

IMified is a service, a buddy on your instant messenger that is similar to SmarterChild, Santa and other chatbots. It helps you keep all your various todo lists centralized (for example from email, IM, PDA, etc.)

It looks like a lot has happened with their business since last March when I first found them (they launched Feb '07). That's kind of exciting. What's most exciting to me is that they are working out kinks of getting various mobile technologies to talk to one another... towards the sort of seamless integration that will actually make all these little apps way more useful. OMG I can't wait.

This could be a real useful tool. I am going to try it out soon. Although there is something a bit contradictory about an IM productivity tool. After all I usually turn IM off to get some work done not the other way around. But I am happy to subvert that paradigm ; )
