RingMeMaybe Offers Low-Cost Virtual Numbers For iDevices

RingMeMaybe is a new app for iOS that allows you to create and manage an unlimited number of virtual (disposable) phone numbers (and delete them) for your iPhone, iPad, or iPod. The application is available as a free download from the iTunes AppStore , which includes 20 credits – to be used for two new virtual phone numbers that each last for one week (or one virtual phone number that can be extended to two weeks). You can buy more credits ($0.99/number/week) or earn them free by clicking on ads. After downloading the app, you can quickly create virtual phone numbers that will ring on your device. Once created and associated with the iOS device, calls to that number will then automatically be directed to that device – even if the app is not open.

You can associate a custom tag or caller ID to each of your virtual numbers so you’ll know who’s calling (e.g.,”my job listing on Craigslist” or “my contact number on LinkedIn”). “This is the first time users are provided with total anonymity and the context of who’s calling them,” explained Alex Botteri, the founder of yourVirtualSIM, the company behind RingMeMaybe, in a press release announcing the app. “With RingMeMaybe, you will never have to give away your real phone number.”

Wolfram Alpha has announced its Lawyer's Professional Assistant app for the iPhone, iPad, and iPod Touch. The app is $4.99 in the Apple iTunes App Store.

Features include:

A dictionary of legal terms; statutes of limitations for each US state; and information about visa types, including requirements, common issues, and extensions and limits
Calendar computations to quickly determine the end date of a specific term
Financial computations, including fee calculations, settlement calculations, current interest rates, historical value of money, and federal US tax rates
Crime rates and histories for specific crimes, as well as state and national average comparisons
Demographics of population and economy for specific cities and international information about currency, country economies, and languages spoken, as well as time zone conversions
Investigative information, including weather, company information, IP lookup, and blood alcohol calculator
Damages and estate-planning computations for occupational salaries, costs of living, life expectancies, and present or future values
Real estate law, including mortgage calculations, closing cost estimation, information on square footage, home sales price, and utility prices

Information in the app is compiled by the Wolfram|Alpha "computational knowledge engine." Rather than indexing Web sites (and searching that index to retireve answers to queries), Wolfram|Alpha has compiled and organized multiple terabytes of information from which it computes the answers to queries.

The Wolfram Lawyer's Personal Assistant app joins Wolfram Alpha's existing Net Admin Personal Assistant app. Personal Assistant apps for Machininsts and Nurses are also planned, according to the company's Web site.
