avirambm··on Paperless: Scan and index paper documents
You can use Docady's scanner that also does OCR and recognizes its content. It then stores your documents and encrypts them. At the moment it's available on iOS, but should be available soon in Android too.

Demo: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cN_Zw6xoUaw

App: https://itunes.apple.com/US/app/id921250909?mt=8

(Full Disclosure: I work at Docady and part of its team)

avirambm··on Show HN: CareerSonar - because friends don't let friends use job boards
That's great feedback Chelsea - we're not mixing really since your activity is 100% confidential (no one sees it) - we're just giving you the tools to see which jobs your social connections can help you get (your friends and family are even more likely to recommend you than a random contact).

By the way, we also let you connect with LinkedIn so you can add that layer as well - and we fill the gap between Facebook and LinkedIn - you may be connected to a friend on Facebook that's connected to a potential reference on LinkedIn - we bridge networks to let you uncover those.

avirambm··on Show HN: CareerSonar - because friends don't let friends use job boards
The most promising career opportunities are those in which you have an inside connection that can help you get your foot in the door (or get your resume to the top of the stack). CareerSonar makes it easy to discover these opportunities in your social and professional networks, without having to manually cross check hundreds of job listings against your contact lists (not to mention your 2nd connections). Those who are employed use CareerSonar to keep on top of the best opportunities out there for them (because everyone is curious). Our ranking algorithm is patent pending, and we like to think that it gives results that are much more relevant than anything else out there.

We just entered private beta and would love to get some feedback. Thanks!

avirambm··on Show HN: Discover career opportunities in your network with CareerSonar
We actually allow you to add LinkedIn as well during the signup process. Your opportunities don't discriminate so we help you mine both your social and professional networks.

The most promising career opportunities are those in which the person has an inside connection that can help them get in the door. CareerSonar makes it easy to discover these opportunities in your social and professional networks, without having to manually cross check hundreds of job listings against your contact list (not to mention your 2nd connections, etc). The benefit for active job seekers is apparent, but we also help those who are employed keep on top of their best opportunities out there (because everyone is curious). Our ranking algorithm is currently patent pending, and we like to think that it gives results that are much more relevant than anything else out there.
