We know that people use social networking sites to keep in touch with their friends and family. For business users, the whole ‘social networking phenomena has been slow to get started. Most likely as business users need integration with their existing applications, needs to track the tasks of other users, as well as have group discussions and share project files.

This requires a lot of bandwidth and, like any social networking environment, there’s little point joining one if your key clients are using an alternative. This can be really frustrating as it means you have to attempt to connect to various networking sites to keep up with the latest information.

AlertThingy is a small tool that enables you to receive and read the latest thoughts and notes from other users, irrespective of their social networking choice – this could be Facebook or Twitter for private use or Huddle or BaseCampHQ for business users. AlertThingy can connect to various networks and pull in any notes or messages sent to you from other users.

In addition, AlertThingy supports news feeds, so you can keep abreast of the latest news from various sources.

Note that this is a cross-platform tool and will support any operating system that Adobe Air supports.
