When to Bouncewhen

Forbes:

Seattle and Bay Area-based developers and entrepreneurs Justin Wilcox (CTO of Nimbus Health) and Ondrej Hrebicek (CTO of Syncplicity) devoted 24 consecutive hours to building [Bounce][7], a hybrid of your location, upcoming calendar events and real-time traffic data (provided by [Bing’s Routes API][8]) to notify you exactly when it’s time to leave for your next appointment. Bounce simply integrates your calendar events and provides and optional warning up to 60 minutes before you need to leave, with the option to include configurable “just in case” time for extra needs such as parking, gathering up your kids, etc.
