There's a Bellevue tech startup called HipCricket, a name that calls to mind Pinocchio's famous conscience Jiminy. The wooden puppet Pinocchio was apparently a beta version because he didn't have that conscience module built in.
HipCricket does text message marketing, though. They're the cricket that rides around with you, but instead of reminding you of your moral obligations reminds you that crap is on sale or that you haven't thought of suchandsuch brand in a while and maybe you should focus on that for a few moments. Because apparently we're a beta version without that module built in.
HipCricket recently raised $6 million in funding from angel investors.
