Need a way to manage all of the information necessary to keep your life in order? Account balances, weather, world news, bills, investments, career resources, interests, important dates, the list goes on and on. Each day, more and more information that is relevant to our lives is made available through the internet as website content and web services. But who has time to continually troll all the various sites to collect it all? What we need is a "personal intelligence agent" that will do it all for us!
The solution to this information overload is the Mentations Software Service. This software is an internet-enabled desktop dashboard that will unobtrusively monitor, analyze, distill, categorize, and react to all of your important information and provide it to you through an aesthetically pleasing "skinnable" interface. Easily customize Mentations to categories appropriate to your life. For example, suppose you are an investment banker, married with two kids, and an avid hiker. You choose the "Outdoors" theme, command Mentations to feed you information on your investment portfolio, sports scores, world news, family commitments, home maintenance needs, etc. At any time of the day, a dynamic picture will, at a glance, depict the real-time statuses of each of these categories!
No more simplistic ticker-tape style feeds like you currently get on your PDA and cell phone. Those are simply pushing raw data; not much value added there! In contrast, Mentations is not just a one-way delivery system regurgitating data, but will allow you, through simple point-and-click "meta-commands", to interact with your sources of information, enabling you to easily control these linked facets of your life. Furthermore, Mentations will eventually deliver targeted advice, opportunities, and merchandise offers based upon your interests, goals, and desires. Lastly, youll be able to share information and collaborate with other trusted users. Mentations finally provides the means for you to stem the information overload tide!
