elog.com is a simple and non-invasive service. Your website looks exactly like the email you send and it can serve a variety of purposes. To create your own web page, just send an email to newpage@elog.com. Your email can have pretty much anything you want in it and your new web page will look just like the email you send. You will be issued a public web page, e.g. 1993.elog.com, that others can view immediately. To update your web page with new content, just send an email to it, e.g. 1993@elog.com.
Currently, the system does not allow for attachments, but the company has told me that if the BlackBerry community were interested in such a feature, it would be easy to implement. Is this a feature you would like to see?

“GandhiCam” is an application for post-8700-series BlackBerry devices that automatically emails your (or an address you set) the images, audio, or video as it is taken, with the aim to make it easy to get the data off the device before it is confiscated or destroyed.”
A while back we posted a video asking the BlackBerry community to find more details about the app Forward with Edit. The video demonstrated a feature that does not come native with BlackBerry: namely editing a message that you are forwarding.
The app is now available in the BlackBerry Cool store. The app is available for $2.99 and will give you the ability to forward and edit emails directly from your mobile device so you do not have to go to your PC.
Download Forward with Edit for $2.99 or on a Free Trial basis.
Get a lot of emails? Tired of not knowing who messages are from without opening the messages folder? Well Aerize can help. Aerize alerts is an application that will notify you via a pop-up notification on your screen. The thing I love about this application is that it displays a photo of the sender if their picture is stored in your contacts. I’ve been using the application for about 4 days and it’s a must have!
This is an excellent piece of software because BlackBerry lacks the ability to edit an email that you are forwarding. Forward with Edit allows you to do just that. Instead of clicking “Forward,” you click “Forward with Edit” after installing the software and you can edit the email to be forwarded.
Now this is where I ask your help.
I have been trying to find you a download link or even a product page with purchasing information but it isn’t obvious where to go (I’m really leaving myself open to ridicule here).
Can you find out more about this application? The first 5 people to comment with a download link and product information will win a free theme.
[UPDATE: The video might be made by the guys at Unify4Life]
Xobni (”inbox” backwards), has some forward-thinking e-mail management ideas that have attracted the attention of the BlackBerry Partners Fund. The investment is part of a $10-million (U.S.) round of financing for Xobni – which also includes $7-million from Cisco Systems Inc. announced in January – valuing the BlackBerry Partners Fund’s contribution at about $3-million.
Xobni works with Microsoft Corp.’s Outlook and helps users better organize e-mails and other information, such as phone numbers, within the program.
This investment should surely help enterprise BlackBerry users.
Last week was the launch of vPost for BlackBerry. The application lets BlackBerry users capture and email any combination of pictures, video, audio, & GPS location. It’s a multimedia bundle that re-invents email on a BlackBerry.
Once captured you can send multimedia emails to anyone: friends, family, colleagues, blogs, news agencies, and even social networks. Many social networks and news sites have email addresses you can set-up to email photo’s, video, audio, and GPS locations.

We’ve been talking a lot about Vayyoo for a few reasons: we love their product and we’ve been playing Settlers of Catan with their director of marketing on a pretty regular basis.
