Web 2.0
by S.M. Schrama on February 28, 2007
Yesterday I tried out something new and I was amazed. I tried out Imified. What is imified ? In short : Imified is a service that offers an interface to existing web 2 services such as Google Calendar. What ?! Another interface ? So do I have to login to another website ?? No. That's the beuaty of it. The interface is through a bot in your favorite IM client.

So how good is it ? Well, extremely good. First thing I hate when I use a new service is creating an account. With imified, you don't have to. As soon as you add the IM contact name and send it some message, it creates your account (see the screenshot). Fantastic. From that moment on, you can manipulate and use the service from your IM client. As I use Google Talk, I did it from there (well, from iChat, actually). After 2 minutes adding a service, I was able to post to my wordpress website from Google Talk. And that is simply impressive.
Imified is the most innovative service I have seen so far. Instead of offering another website with logins and an interface, it offers an interface using existing technology. Who could have thought you could ever blog from your IM ? Or put an appointment in your calendar ?
