I guess now I can say I’ve seen everything. The idea behind RunPee web service, and the corresponding iPhone application (costs $0.99), is to help people have a restroom break while watching a movie.
Let’s face it, every movie has a part which you can easily miss and still get the movie’s main point. Knowing that moment can be “beneficial,” especially for die hard movie fans.
For that purpose RunPee provides users with a time graph, indicating when it’s safe to disappear for a minute or two. Plus, if you want to find out what you’ve just missed, there’s a box of scrambled text, which, once clicked on reveals the last few minutes.

Dusan has been using smartphones since their introduction and is now following the latest trends in the industry. The "convergence" is what he's most excited about, and writing about it is the next logical thing to do. He thinks that using a smartphone is what everyone who cares about their time should do. In addition to his interests in mobile phones, Dusan also loves to experiment with the latest web and mobile 2.0 services. The idea of accessing and managing your information from any device no matter where you are simply amazes him. Whether it's an online to-do list, note taking service or a video sharing social network, he's there to try it out. He admits though, he's still searching for the ultimate web-based organizational tool, which "sings" perfectly with the mobile PIM application. Dusan used to run SymbianWatch.com which later became part of IntoMobile. He lives in Serbia, South-East Europe, from where he edits the site on a daily basis.
