TourSnapp brings the concept of Smart-City to Cultural Tourism. We develop a Smartphone App which helps the Cultural Tourist not to miss anything and provides Tourism Institutions with a new source of income. The app consists of two features: 1) service which working in the background warns the user (vibration and sound) when a relevant spot is nearby and 2) identification of a relevant spot. Revenue model: payment by the tourist per visit.

link.fish is a bookmark manager which allows people to work with the information behind the urls. Currently the information on webpages is not better than the one that can be found in books, newspapers or magazines. Both times it is totally impossible to work with unless it gets extracted manually. And that is exactly what link.fish changes. It extracts the information automatically and allows people to work with it. They can then sort and filter by any property, display it in a list view, grid or on a map, work together in real-time with others, refresh it with the push of a button and much more. www.link.fish
