JotSpot Tracker

I'm not sure how I feel about this application just yet, but I think it's worth a note.

JotSpot Tracker

It's basically a web front-end for spreadsheets. Paste your spreadsheet on-line. You can even integrate/view it with/as a calendar or a map. You can then have other users subscribe to it, view it, and even change it. You can subscribe to other people's calendars too.

They do a better job explaining it than I do. See the actual link for the screen shots that go every place where you see lots of ellipses.

JotSpot Tracker - How it Works (Screenshots)

Casting Call Acting Inc. handles the scheduling of auditions for major studios.

Today, they maintain a spreadsheet of actors and actresses. It's frustrating because the information is always changing and the spreadsheet needs to be sent by email to casting directors, agents and managers...

...with Tracker, they simply copy and paste their spreadsheet into their browser...

...to automatically create an interactive talent tracking web site...

...agents and managers can now make their changes, apply formatting and edit in one centralized place...

...or even add notes, attach resumes or include headshot images in each row...

...sharing it with other people and letting them make their own changes is as easy as entering an email address...

...a calendar view allows the managers to look at upcoming audition dates...

...and a map view allows them to plot shooting locations or home addresses.
