ZYB

Here's a cool tool that I stumbled upon. It's called ZYB (quite uninformative name, but typical web 2.0 lingo I guess). It's a free backup service for your mobile phone. Quite impressive what you can do on that site -- back up contacts, etc. and actually it's a bit strange that they even can get the backup to work over the mobile's GPRS connection. I've used it for a month now and I'm impressed that it's even possible to make a backup of your mobile that way. I don't know how they do it or why it hasn't been done before!
[Since this review was published, ZYB became Vodafone 360, which -- as of May 2010 -- no longer appears to be in service. If you have another free mobile phone backup service or solution, please leave word in the comments below or via the submit page.-- SL]

A cool tool is anything useful that is superior to comparable items. If you think this tool is inferior suggest a better one. You are welcome to insult a tool, but comments containing insults to individual people will be deleted. Corrections of fact are always welcomed, if stated politely. Recommendations of better tools are dearly wanted and may be elevated to the front page.
