Actually this function list may increase in number for first phase. But, our goal is your “usage level”. We work hard for practice and easy application for all of us. We don’t talk assertively for competition. We are working on the same problems like other applications but our process is very different and simple. Data entering page and list page, that’s all. You don’t have to go to a lot of pages for a few words.

When we use any “to do-notes” application, we see; firstly choose your note category, then enter all information details and save but if you reach all posts, you have to go to a lot of pages. Isn’t it right? But Mindin.me process starts from your thoughts and you can write quickly. Then, when you click post type button, it will be saved. If you want to see and edit all posts, it’s enough to take a look at the page below.

Don’t forget to be subscribe for beta test. We are waiting for your comments.



New startup project, “www.mindin.me”

We travel on mind maps;

Life is very fast and our mind world is very busy, too. We try to be peaceful in our complex world. Is that possible? It’s very hard, but of course possible. Human is composed of mind, thoughts and decides. But we can not manage our minds, tasks, reminder, to do list, social network etc. We can not monitor everything, in everywhere. And we forget, we skip over some important tasks. Business life is very busy and stressful. Actually private life is too. Home, wife, children, personal care, big family, communication, financial plans etc. I know, we use some tools for all of them. Primary tools are note papers and pen. Then desktop applications, internet and mobile devices.

Please take a look at your work table, now. What did you see? Note papers, post-its, pinboard, visiting cards, reminder marks on calender etc. Actually you will see your mail programs or mobile phone. These notes may be about only your business life. Well, but where is your individual, private notes or task list? In addition to them, we think, we remember during the day. Our mind world is not empty. It’s busy, everytime. So, how can we monitor  all these thoughts?

We know many applications on internet, mobile phone or desktop. But, we don’t solve some problems about integration and monitoring, why? Let’s see;

1- When I read a book,a  journal or a newspaper, I want to take a note by tagging. I should complete this job very quickly. Maximum three steps and a few seconds.

2- When I surf on the  internet, I want to take bookmarking, tags, take notes, add to do list or link to network.

3- I attend to a conference, seminar, workshop and  I meet  new people. Sometimes I can’t take / give a business card. I must write some  notes, quickly. I want to take conference notes and send to a friend at the same time.

4- At the management meeting and we are talking about agenda. I want to send my notes to assistants, online. And I want to follow complete status in the same mobile/internet application.

5- We are busy all business day and remember any task about  home, wife, children or personal to do list. But, lets say only we’ve mobile handset. I don’t want to call, sending SMS or e-mail. How can I take notes and share with my family members?

6- I’ve a startup project and I’m an entrepreneur. I’m following too many data and new things. How can I take any notes and see history with tags.

We travel on mind maps and we want to connect any minds. We want to categorise and tag. Reminder notes must be sent to any person.  Think and take a note. Connect to do list, or calender or network or bookmarking or  new category.

We work hard  for these problems nowadays. We try to be simple, quick and user friendly tool. Project name is “mindin”, web page is www.mindin.me.  Private beta test will start in a three weeks. We will open as BETA on May 2010.

I hope it will be useful for everybody. We are waiting for “good luck” wishes.

Best regards.

Personal Branding Process Management

Personal branding concept includes all about our life milestones. But it’s not discipline, social science or doctrine. It’s only suggestions interest with our inner life and social presence. Actually we are walking at two different path in our life. Career path and private path. Sometimes different lanes, sometimes spiral complex lines. I try to tell this ways and our needed and necessary milestones for personal branding process.

We are standing at the central point. There is seven box that we have to do for private and business life. These boxes are basic references for us and very important. We can questioning for daily, weekly and monthly etc.

Which web applications that will be successful in the future?

1- User friendly

But, we can not see completely true process for users on also best web based applications. Facebook, Google, Linkedin, Twitter, Friendfeed etc. I know, developments are going on and they are listening to users feedback. I’m using too, but not useful all milestones. Sorry!

Is personal branding popular culture trend ?

This question is always being asked me. Is “personal branding” trend, or fashion, or temporary imaging, or “be icon” for people? Actually, secret answer is in this question. If it’s temporary, a person has not been a personal brand. Please don’t confuse, personal branding is not only being celebrity, rich or influence people. When your name is talking, thinking anywhere, if people don’t think affirmative and positive things, it doesn’t work your fame.

What did Tom Peters want to say with “brand you” ?

tom-petersSet goal/target: The “brand” word is not necessary for only firm/company/product, it’s necessary for all people. He emphasised branding process that can be applied for our private and business life. He called out to these people, different, creative, innovative and self-aware people.

He said, “you are potantial brand, be brand, stay brand and die brand”

Order/directive: Actually he adviced but his messages were order for us. If you want to be happy and successful, you must be “brand”

Respect: Human is the creature that has been best equipped in the universe. Therefore, first of all, respect is a “must” for all people. Naturally, this consideration/reputation will increase more and more with personal branding efforts

“Social Network” and “Social Media”, WHY ?

istock_000007970225xsmall1The most effective projects, come out of the subjects that we need the mostly. The mostly needed subjects are the details that generally are overlooked by the most people. When the success is in hidden in details, the applications that come out do wonders. In the last five years the most attractive applicaitons are social networks and the media.

Facebook is not only for finding a girl/friend, Linked-in is not only for contacting for business, Xing is not only for meeting different people. Twitter is not only for to write what you are doing at the moment, Friendfeed is not only for sharing knowledge. Because of a lot of people can find the details that they miss in their lives, they had records of millions of people and also subscriptions with payment.

“You’ve a new start-up idea”, STOP !

istock_000003188225xsmall1- It’s not important everybody, there must have been at least one person who tought this idea apart from you. It might not have been liven up. Now, it’s your turn to try. Don’t exaggerate, don’t think that you are one of most creative and genius  boy/girl of the world. Be modest firstly to yourself, then to others. Forget to be appreciated too much.

2- You can search thoroughly if it is applied before, or if it has an imitation. But don’t forget that you can creative your project with much more different added values. Don’t be hopeless became of the idea is the same. Search the market share “to be scaled” but don’t yield from the beginning by exaggerating your anxieties.

3- Before begining to a good analysis or development, set off by thinking the worst probability. By taking into consideration the probability of restrained, do the bookkeeping of  “the you throw, the bird you gave a sudden fright”

Tell me about money….

We have read hundreds of self development books, we have heard so many entrepreneur stories… Maybe we tried to be the entrepreneur couple of times… We are still trying to find something as web hunters.

We are looking for investors for our projects, the financial income is considered very seriously. We meet a rich, famous person and we feel the smell and “fear” of money at the same time. We want to improve our reputation on social media, we want to be a personal brand… all the roads lead us to money. “So what aobout money?” is the question remains behind at the end of the day. It is not possible to do something without money, that’s right but it is also not possible to reach the money source without doing some certain things. It is so hard even to see the light of a penny….
