Transient Life


Transient Life is a system designed to enable the gathering of personal tidbits and information as well as provide mechanisms to share the collected information with others.

URL’s and photos can be dragged and dropped into the Transient Life application, task items can be listed to form a today message, blog entries can be created and posted, and basic personal status information can be recorded. A History Calendar facilitates viewing of collected information from a past date.

Currently in Alpha stage. Development is ongoing.
