kwiry adds TiVo scheduling, social networking support

by Darren Murph posted Jan 14th 2009 @ 2:20PM

kwiry's been helping texters remember things for well over a year, and now it's about to help them schedule TiVo recordings and update their Facebook / Twitter statuses. A few new kwiry shortcuts have been announced to make the lives of text messaging fiends more enjoyable, with a one-time account link between your handset and your TiVo Series2 / Series3 enabling a "tivo 30 Rock" SMS to trigger that very action. Additionally, users can now tap into Yelp and email contact information on the go, and as always, the service is completely free to end users. Hear that? Free.

Don't forget it, kwiry it

File this one in the "YES! this happens to me all the friggin' time" department: start-up kwiry has gone live with its SMS-based reminder service, which is free and dead simple to use (two key phrases we love to hear). Basically, the idea is this -- you're walking around, you see, hear, or think about something you want to remind yourself about later, and you text it to kwiry's SMS short code; the service collects your saved searches online so you can check 'em out later. It might not be too useful for smartphone power users that insist on doing all their mobile searches directly from their devices in real time, but for the overwhelming bulk of dumbphone folks, this could be huge.
