for the iPhone users ...

Yeah, a little shameless self-promotion here, but so what? Glenn told me it was okay, so all who don't agree can go suck it, bwahahaha )))

Anyway, to the purpose of this post:

One of my clients (no, not Intromental related, something else) has created this awesome "database" called GotoAID where people can find all kinds of information on what to do if you break your leg, gets bitten by a spider or snake, suffer from gunshot, have hyperthermia or whatnot. Very comprehensive online database.

A few months ago he launched an iPhone version of it, which has been very well received. The cool thing is that it works even without internet connection, can connect you directly to a doctor, can guide you through roadmaps to nearest hospital etc.

Now, this week we've launched the LITE (free!) version of the iPhone application, and we're trying to get a little buzz going on it. So, all iPhone users, please go download the free LITE version and check it out.

Here's the link:

Cheers,

That's pretty cool. Hopefully, then, we will all have cellphone service when we're out in the middle of the woods.

Any chance this ever hits the Blackberry?

The premium version ($2.99) doesn't require cellphone service. The free lite version does

Yup, it's in the planning stages right now.

Heard about applications such as this (and maybe this one) saving peoples' lives. Downloading.

Looks cool. This would be pretty handy if you were out camping, or just in an unfamiliar town.

I guess I'm screwed then. Don't own or want a cell phone.

If only the application automatically tweeted your condition. "User nailz has been inflicted with gunshot. Remedy found: go to the fucking ER, stupid."

I can see how it would be useful though, say, for guiding someone through a procedure on an injured person.

Also, dev for Android before RIM.

I would be more interested if it had more things for people, and ZERO "emergencies" for dogs and cats. Especially if the full version takes up lots of local storage for those things. Maybe consider multiple apps. The cat freaks alone would probably download a ton of them if they thing it would save their little Mittens.
