Kwiry Closing it’s doors

I’ve been using Kwiry for quite a while to do all sorts of stuff. I just got the announcment that they are shuttung the service down. The did provide a nice list of alternatives though.

from the Kwiry e-mail:

It’s with heavy hearts that we send this note. On April 23, 2009 (12AM PDT), we will be discontinuing the kwiry service. As of today, the service will no longer accept new sign-ups. We have very much enjoyed getting to know many of you and working to build features to help you get things done and simplify your lives. We appreciate all of your help, feedback and patience as the kwiry service evolved. Unfortunately, due to economic realities, we can no longer maintain the service.

From now until April 23, you can download all of your past kwirys in .csv format (can be opened in Excel as a spreadsheet) once you login.

We want to thank our wonderful and supportive investors at Hummer Winblad, our board of advisors and our partners. Also, we couldn’t have done any of this without the tireless support of our friends and family during the last few years.

Thanks for being part of the kwiry community,
-Ron, Steve & Nabil

I’ve got to evaluate what I’ll be moving to now. I’ll really miss being able to send a SMS to add things to my nexflix queue.

    Thanks for the tip. Turns out they have a Netflix shortcut which was the one thing I was missing.
