I often wondered why Fedora marketing doesn't care about small, but
very remarkable features - to make some remarkable PR. Some remarkable
features might affect that more people from the Mac or Windows segment
make some attention to the Fedora project. Those people like things
that just works out of the box - even more imported they like small
nifty features. To make Fedora more known it's needed to pinpoint
features that are special, remarkable and rememberable.
Until now I found the following small bluetooth applications that I
think are able to make people think - oh! what a nice thing - and make
this oh! big enough to make them remember it.
* http://freshmeat.net/projects/btcid/ - btcid - a small
application that shows whether there is a incoming phone call in a
bluetooth enabled phone nearby. Most importend - now it's possible to
mute xmms or what ever needed.
* http://www.geektown.de/devel/blue-cmd.pl - blue-cmd - make it
possible to lock or shutdown your computer when you leave with your
bluetooth mobile phone.
* http://usefulinc.com/software/phonemgr/ - Gnome Phone Manager
enables you to recieve and send SMS messages from your PC desktop
trough your mobile phone
Here I focused on mobile integration applications, maybe you have some
other ideas of special, remarkable and rememberable ones.
