Comments on: Fon.gs and other Fon´s “toolvertorials” http://english.martinvarsavsky.net/general/fongs-and-other-fon%c2%b4s-toolvertorials.html Blog of an entrepreneur Mon, 13 Feb 2012 19:31:49 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: María http://english.martinvarsavsky.net/general/fongs-and-other-fon%c2%b4s-toolvertorials.html#comment-161794 María Tue, 21 Oct 2008 11:32:35 +0000 http://english.martinvarsavsky.net/?p=1743#comment-161794 Martin, I try all Fon products as a rule. Some of them like Fon.gs and Twitxr are great services. I use Fon.gs on a daily basis to post urls in Twitter. And although I like Twitxr I don't actually make a very active use of it...maybe just because I don't have many friends in there. Anyway, I like both. I do understand both. But sorry, I don't get why should I use Gspace. My email account just looks like a mess. I know I can create filters and that stuff, but it doesn't worth the effort considering that there are easier tools like Box.net where I can upload my files and have them tidily stored. I agree with Germán, it might be more useful if we knew the best way to use it....A screencast would help a lot! BTW, what about a Fon.gs Firefox extension? :-) Martin,

I would recommend further development into this by Fonlabs... why not even create a "windows" version although "internet connection sharing" is a default feature in any windows distribution Hi,

Maybe it would be more successful if you explained a little better how it works in an F.A.Q... for example: will the emails i upload maintain "from", "to" and date info? will sent items appear as such on gmail? what is an "Mbox file"? is it a pst? etc...
