simple ideas

The fact is ... you are often too busy with your company, your start-up business, or your non-profit association to have the luxury of worrying about slick technology tools. From nearly 15 years experience in technololgy consulting, we know that there are technology tools you could be using that are both versatile enough to help you do the tasks at hand AND powerful enough to be easy to use.

Simple Tools Group helps you find the simplest possible technological solutions to some of your business problems -- and we do so with respect to your constraints of time, money, and mind-share.

case studies

• An East Bay Yoga studio wanted to provide better service for its members:   it chose a blog to create a community ’voice.’ The studio’s blog not only provides teacher and class information but also acts as the venue for an exploration of the studio’s Yoga philosophy.

web site or blog? :  creating a thoroughly edit-able web presence 

Perhaps the easiest way to get information onto the web is by way of a  'web log' ( "blog").  At times, a web site can be as simple as an easily edited  $10/month blog.  What you're looking at right now is a blog.

JaJah:  a simple way to cut your phone bills

JaJah may be the voice-over-internet approach that a LOT of people will enjoy.  Go to jaJah.com    In a model of simplicity - you're given two little boxes to fill in and a button to press.  Assuming you're in grabbing range of either a regular or mobile phone - that's all there is.

From a JaJah fan's comments:

--

The idea is truly simple: see a number on your screen, call it, talk via your own phone, save money. Calls triggered through JAJAH WEB are phone-to-phone, you don't need a headset, a microphone or a special Internet phone to use it and you are not tied to your machine when talking to your friends. JAJAH WEB is as simple as searching a keyword in Google and JAJAH WEB is as comfortable as any regular phone call, but much cheaper. And last but not least you can use JAJAH WEB also with Mac or Linux operating systems."

Simple.  It doesn't require much technology.  And it saves you money.
