I’m not quite sure what’s the idea behind the findNano iPhone app. It allows users to check whether some consumer product is nanotechnology-enabled or not. The application comes with a database of more than 1,000 nanotechnology-enabled products, from sporting goods to food products and electronics to toys. In addition, users can improve the database by submitting new products which they know come with nanotech.
From the official press release we find out that the idea is to make PEN’s Consumer Products Inventory more accessible for today’s consumers, though I’m not sure about the benefits. Do you really care to know whether a piece of technology you’re using has some nanotechnology inside or not? The application is unsurprisingly free and you can grab it from here.

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.
