Airena Debuts its AirSet Web and Mobile Groupware Service at DEMOfall
Introduces AirSet 'lifeware' - Groupware to Manage Your Entire Life
AirSet Mobile Client Transforms Ordinary Mobile Phones Into Networked Smartphones
HUNTINGTON BEACH, Calif., Sept. 19 / -- Airena, a Web services and mobile software company, today debuted AirSet, an innovative Web and mobile groupware service that greatly simplifies scheduling and organizing your entire life. Brian Dougherty, CEO and founder of Airena, unveiled the service today at the renowned DEMOfall 2005 conference.
"We all have important groups in our lives tugging at us from different directions, demanding our time and attention. Work colleagues, family, friends, social groups. Staying on top of that can be very stressful," said Dougherty. "AirSet's 'lifeware' service solves this problem by letting you manage the schedule, contact, and information-sharing needs for all your groups, all in one place, accessible from anywhere."
Groupware to Manage Your Entire Life
"If you work in a big company, you might use groupware like Lotus Notes or Microsoft Exchange to coordinate a group's activities. But what if you work in a small or medium sized business? And where is the groupware for the rest of our lives? That's where AirSet shines," said Dougherty.
With AirSet, calendars, contacts and to-do lists are easily shared within and across groups. No need to toggle back and forth between different applications, Web sites, or the calendar taped to the fridge. No need to reference address books outdated before the ink dries. AirSet pulls all of your information into one place and makes it accessible from anywhere.
AirSet Mobile Transforms Ordinary Mobile Phones into Networked Smartphones
AirSet Mobile clients will be available nationwide on BREW and J2ME handsets, enabling users to also view and update their shared calendars, contacts, and lists via their mobile phone -- the one communications device always at hand. In this way, AirSet transforms ordinary mobile phones into networked smartphones.
"While you might be in front of a PC at work all day, that's not necessarily the case with the rest of your life. But you always have your mobile phone," said Dougherty. "That's what makes AirSet different. It accommodates today's mobile lifestyle, giving people accessibility to their important groups from anywhere."
