Sharing your Lists

Posted by Richard Kuhlenschmidt Wed, 10 Mar 2010 22:16:00 GMT

You can now share your lists with your family and friends by sending an email to one or more contacts.

This will come in handy when you have a group that you are involved with, such as scout troop, and need to send each person a copy of the list.

To do this, click on the Share icon next to the list you want to share.

A window will appear that allows you to select contacts from your address book or enter a new e-mail address. If you have tagged your contacts, for example Scout Troop, you can select the tag, Scout Troop, and the list will be sent to all people in the tagged group.

You can also add a message in the email.

Wells Fargo vSafe and Famundo Family Vault

Posted by Richard Kuhlenschmidt Thu, 04 Mar 2010 00:38:00 GMT

I just received an announcement about vSafe, a new service that Wells Fargo Bank is offering its customers for storing copies of vital records and documents. They are offering 1GB of storage space for $4.95/month.

vSafe is described as “secure online storage for you to safeguard, organize, and access electronic copies of important documents—from birth certificates and immunization records to wills and treasured photos.”

Here is a link with more information.

We at Famundo think this is a GREAT idea.

In fact, we offer a virtually identical product, the Family Vault, as part of Famundo Social suite of applications. AND for a limited time, you can create unlimited Family Vaults, as well as take advantage of all the other offerings of Famundo Social, for only $4.95/month or $49/year with 2GB of storage, or create one vault with our free version.

Sign up and start protecting your vital records and documents today!

Family-friendly Social Networking

Posted by Richard Kuhlenschmidt Thu, 25 Feb 2010 19:51:00 GMT

When we set out to design Famundo Social, we surveyed our users for ideas on what would make Famundo work better for them. Many of their suggestions are incorporated in this new release.

One of the things we heard over and over again was the need for families to be able to interact with their extended family and friends in a manner, similar to Facebook or Myspace, but in a family-friendly, safe and secure environment. With parents having control over who their children can or cannot be friends with. With grandkids and grandparents having the ability to communicate with each other without having to set up an e-mail account.

The result is the “Social” part of Famundo Social. Here is a short flash movie that gives a overview on how this works.

Families are busy today. We tend to get caught up in our own lives and let our relationships with friends and our extended families fall through the cracks. We hope Famundo Social can help bring you together again.

Put "Get Organized" on top of your list of New Years Resolutions.

Posted by Richard Kuhlenschmidt Sun, 21 Dec 2008 00:34:00 GMT

New Years is the time of year when we make a list of promises or “resolutions” to improve our lives in the upcoming year. Getting organized always seems to be near the top of everyone’s list (just underneath losing weight) but by mid-January, these resolutions are often long forgotten.

But this year when you put Get Organized on your list, you’ve got some help, Famundo.

Famundo is made to help you organize your life. It’s got an online calendar for everyone in the family, a place to make list of things you need to buy and do, and an address book where you can keep track of your family and friends. You can send your self reminders so you never forget important events and, you can keep your important files and document in a super safe vault.

And our latest version, Famundo Social, has safe and secure social networking for families and friends.

So this year, put Sign up for Famundo on the top of your list. The rest will be easy.
