This photo annotations service is not new though Phlook provides the same services already available in the market. Maybe it would be better off making an app, and launching it on social networks.

Once upon a time I wrote about a nifty application called VisualSage which helped you navigate Facebook differently.And today I found out about a very brilliant application called ScrapBoy, which not only helped me browse FB, but connect to my other social networks such as Orkut and Myspace, and do stuff all via a nice structured desktop application.
With Scrapboy you no more will login individually instead it has a common interface to handle multiple sites. A chat box is provided along with that you can see your wall posts, check your inbox, view your pokes, events and check out your groups.

In this time of financial crunch, recession is needed. Cutting down costs for businesses, especially for those on the move, is really necessary. Today we have facilities of smartphones, those being IPhones, Androids etc and what I strongly believe is now that businesses should use these great inventions instead of spending millions on laptops, projectors etc. Now just send your marketing team with an iPhone filled with applications that would help them book airline flights, organize schedules and deliver presentations.
