With it, you can build and administer surveys and collect field data very easily with a Pocket PC.<br /><br /><img src="http://www.pocketpcthoughts.com/images/ppccreate.gif" /><br /><br />Well, CreativityCorp also tries to support their users who have developed useful projects with their tools. My friend, Tom Davis, has used their product to create a tool for evaluating the nutritional status and health risk of children in developing countries. He goes to places like Guatamala and Nigeria to establish healthcare programs for children and uses his Pocket PC to quickly gather data and, using the flowchart-like logic built into the software, he can immediately get an assessment of the needs of the patients there.<br /><br />CreativityCorp is helping Tom and other users by providing Web space and software support, and I think it's a great idea. This helps the users spread the word about their worthwhile projects and provides CreativityCorp with a bit of visibility. It's great to see a software provider helping out the "little guys," especially when they have an idea that is truly humanitarian.
