NeedASig
wrong link
Fixed now.
Thanks
I’m particularly interested in the memorari thingy. Unfortunately, my mobile carrier was not among the dropdown list there. Too bad, this would have been one great tool for me as I have a weakness for remembering schedules and I hate carrying a reminder list and my cell phone only allows a few calendar alarms. Perhaps, I’ll just upgrade my cellphone?
hi dude,
what is your carrier? probably it has an email to sms gateway so i can implement it into memorari
best regards,
mo
Well, I like needasig as its really a good web application which has great characteristics that can be useful for generating email signatures and icons with an ease.
