Yesterday we brought you the best British web innovators. And today we’re celebrating the most bonkers British web innovations going. Whether you want a healthy snack box or just want to hassle your Twitter friends even more, there’s a service for you.
Graze
At just £2.99 a pop, Graze offers boxes of healthy grub through your door. Tell it how often you want deliveries, what kind of box you want (snack or fruit options) and then pick a nutrition plan. You can tailor it too, to get your favourite nosh from Graze’s entire range. Sure beats a greasy Dominoes ordered on your Sky box.
TVCatchup
Think British on demand TV and BBC iPlayer’s all conquering service is probably at the front of your mind. But TVCatchup’s vast array of live streams makes Auntie’s effort look like, well, ITV Player. There’s access to every Beeb channel, plus UK classics such as Sky Sports News, Men and Motors, Dave and even QVC. Ideal for a spot of afternoon internet shopping.
Brit tech genius: 10 innovators changing your world
TouchnoteSending the same old fart-joke based gift card every birthday is getting tiresome. So instead, use Touchnote to upload your own mug (or any other pic) and make your own. You can even use Facebook snaps or photos from Picasa web albums. There’s a Touchnote iPhone or Symbian app to make your own designs too. Tell them your message, chuck ‘em £1.99 and they’ll even post it.
Sendsocial
Want to send a parcel to one of your new Twitter pals, but have nothing more than their Twitter ID and a vague sense that you could be great pals? Then Sendsocial’s for you. Tell it your friend’s ID and it’ll email them asking for their address, without handing it over to you. A courier will then pick up your packet and deliver it by hand, with prices starting at just £3.99.
Cooler-ebooks.com
The online book store for the natty Cool-er eBook, Cooler-ebooks is a British success story. It’s the first non US eBook emporium to be backed by Google, meaning it has a million public domain books stuffed on its virtual shelves, as well as a ton of premium tomes. If you’ve got a Cool-er, here’s the place to load it up, although the files will also work on other models of e-reader too.
