In January 2014, Nusiki co-founders Ben Hewitt and Tim Welch were on to something when they realized there was no efficient way to share music with your friends online. Nusiki combines all of your music libraries with your network to build a community around one of the world’s largest online music databases. The app is currently available for both iPhone and Android in the App Store or on Google Play.There is never a short amount of music apps and never will be and this is worth a look…Launched at SXSW, the Chicago start-up unveiled their music and social networking app and its unique concept and user benefits,the app is smooth easy to navigate with a nice UI too from testing it which is nice to see,good work has been put into it..
“Music libraries and streaming services are a great place to listen to songs, but the social sharing component is broken,”said Ben Hewitt, Nusiki co-founder. “Current social networks mix music with other media and don’t allow you to listen to songs in a row, diluting the music. And, music discovery services remove the social aspect of discovery. These services are meant to connect people TO music. Nusiki connects people THROUGH music.”
In five simple steps, the Nusiki app allows you to
1. Search/Share your favorite songs and videos from popular music sources. Songs you share will appear on your profile and the feeds of users that you follow.
2. Follow other users to curate your feed and hear what your friends are listening to.
3. Like the songs that you want to remember or repost songs to share with your own network. Songs you like and post can be found in your profile.
4. Explore new and trending music that users outside of your network are listening to.
5. Listen to all of your favourite music in one place.
Sharing music with your friends should be as simple as posting pictures, sending 140-character thoughts or liking a friend’s status.
By aggregating music online and leveraging social features, Nusiki is connecting friends over music by building a community around one of the world’s largest online music libraries. It’s now easy to share and organize your favorite songs in one place.
When You Use Nusiki:
– That song you love and want people to know about…Share it
– Your friend who knows every good song before it’s popular… Follow them
– That song you love but always forget the name of…’Like’ it and find it easily from now on
– You’re bored of every song you’ve already heard…Explore new music and new people
Have you ever dreamed of having your own Private Jet? Well, maybe you can’t own one just yet, but! Now you can have one anytime you want with JetSmarter.
Founded in 2012 by Sergey Petrossov (@spetrossov), JetSmarter has 6 offices across the globe, and flights into over 170 different countries. The company has deals with about 800 private jet owners and pilots.
You can find the app on the Apple Store and Google Play Store, is free and anyone who registers can book a flight. But the membership option, (which costs $9,000 annually) offers significantly lower flight prices, exclusive events, loyalty points and a gold plated (24-karat) membership card.
JetSmarter also has an “empty legs” (flights that need to make a trip from point A to point B for logistical purposes, but have no one on them) feature that allows members and non-members to fly privately at extremely discounted prices. (It’ll be costly though)
Imagine something like Uber, but in the sky.
There are tons of features on this app, let’s take a look at some:
JetDeals: One-way flights that are exclusive to JetSmarter allowing a custom experience for each and every one. The app will automatically pair these flights between your desired destinations.
JetShuttle: Search from hundreds of scheduled flights, find a time that works for you, book a seat and you are on your way.
JetCharter: Customize your own itinerary, choose the right aircraft and immediately book the flight.
All of this can be used (as every single feature of the app) by non-members, but having a membership has its perks:
$0 JetDeals (2,500+ monthly) Book FREE seats on JetShuttle flights. Discounted JetCharter pricing (up to 70%) Complimentary Helicopter rides to/from New York area airports. VIP Private events for members.
24-karat gold membership card.
In October 2014, the company made a huge step forward, announcing its partnership with GlobeAir, one of Europe’s most prominent private jet companies.
And this year, received lots of investments even from
the Jay Z and the Saudi Royal Family.
Are you going to give it a try? What do you think of this utopic idea of making private jets available for “everyone”? Let us know in the comments section below.

Have you ever found yourself in a situation where you really wanted to send a message but couldn’t get a strong signal or a good data connection?
All of us have been there, at least once, and this is where FireChat finds it’s place.
FireChat is an Android and IOS app the allows you to send and receive messages without data connections or celular signal.
How does it work?
FireChat creates a mesh network using P2P Bluetooth and WiFi, transmits messages and images without connection between devices that are located about 70 meters away from each other.
It turns your phone into a repeater antena, Leaving the WIFI and BT on the app uses that signal to “Hop” between devices until it reaches the recipient.
The FireChat way
Therefore, the more people that use the app the better and faster network becomes, users form a network that increases in size with the number of devices. Allows messages jump from one device to the next. You can cover a practically the entire city with just 5% of the population using the app.
(perfect for the Z apocalypse don’t you think? hahaha)
There are two sides on this messaging app, Public Messages and Private Messages.
The public messages are visible to all, the private ones are encrypted and only the sender and the receiver can read them.
Now, imagine your kid went for a summer camp, normally they go to places where there’s almost ZERO connections, and as a parent that’s something that concerns you about. Well, with this app, if all the kids on the camp installs the app, they can create “their own network” and they can track each others if anything happens.
Worth the try huh?
Unfortunately nothing is perfect, and FireChat is not the exception, You don’t need to use your personal details to log into the app, you can use it anonymously. But, you’re going to need Internet on the first Log.
Although, once done,it works really well!
If you want to give the app a try you can go here: Android, IOS.
The app is free in both stores so you don’t have a excuse not to try it out.
Let us know what do you think of it, have you tried the app before? Leave your thoughts on the comments sections below.
Viber has got a notable update today on the Android and iOS platforms however Windows Phone has been left out in which the app still lags behind in general and performance so when it will get updated is anyone’s guess and nothing new for Windows Phone in General when it comes to updates with official apps.The update also brings more payment options to the app, making it even easier to purchase credit for using the app..
Other changes included in the app is animated stickers which seems to be quite a joy to hear for some,age dependent this is fine but as a user I find them annoying at times but that’s just my opinion..
Increased sharing functions: Users can now share phonebook contact details as a Viber message. Recipients can save the contact info directly to their phone’s contact list through the app.
Rich links: When a user shares a URL, Viber will automatically create a message bubble with a thumbnail image from the site they are sharing.

Yahoo has officially announced Livetext, an app where users chat with friends by sharing video and text — but THERE IS NO SOUND.Yahoo Livetext was being tested in Hong Kong, Taiwan and Ireland over the last few months.Plenty of messaging apps out there today but this is something new and as consumers we like new ideas so lets have a look….
Arjun Sethi, Senior Director, Product Management says “Connecting with your friends should be spontaneous, convenient and memorable – but also fleeting, just like a real-life conversation. So today, we’re introducing Yahoo Livetext – a new way to communicate that blends the immediacy, simplicity and ease of texting with the expressiveness of video, without the audio. We see video as a way to make your conversations more authentic, and we see text as a way to connect that’s quick and non-intrusive. We think you’re really going to love it.Starting tomorrow, Yahoo Livetext will be in five new countries – U.S., U.K., Canada, Germany and France.
Yahoo Livetext puts your words and your friend’s real-time reactions at the center of your conversation. Whether you’re watching Avicii DJ at the Creamfields Festival, at Venice Beach or taking in the view from the Eiffel Tower, you can spontaneously connect with the people you care about and invite them to experience moments with you. Your friend’s goofy look or giant smile, even her eye roll or silent sigh, suddenly become a part of your conversation. Simple conversations are transformed into vivid, authentic and memorable experiences that you can share anytime.
Key Features:
FREE FOREVER: You and your friends can live video text as much as you want! Livetext uses your internet connection (Wi-Fi when available and your cell connection otherwise.)
ONE-TO-ONE: Not for group messaging, it’s like you’re passing notes in class.
TEXT + LIVE VIDEO: Both at the same time – it’s amazing.
NO CALLS: Just live video text your friends and you’ll see them instantly when they enter chat.
ADD FRIENDS: Use their Livetext ID or your address book contacts to connect.
