A 99¢ iPhone app where the ONLY objective is to tap your screen 1 Million times. There is a high score board and everything. This is the type of app that makes you want to smack yourself for not creating it.
The Monocle from Yelp. Not exactly *breaking* news but this is a glimpse into the real-time potential of Augmented Reality combined with online data. It uses the compass feature of the iPhone 3Gs and is available now if you want to try it out.
In the two months after it’s launch, the Pizza Hut iPhone app has rung up $1 Million in sales.
Case-mate released a cardboard iPhone case called “The Recession Case” and sold it for 99¢. They threw a contest to see who could decorate it the best and the results are, well, pretty creative! The one shown above had over 3100 votes. Great way to generate content and awareness.
Flash CS5 will support exporting to iPhone. What this means is we’ll be developing iPhone apps as soon as CS5 launches mid-2010.
Bad publicity is still publicity. In the case of Amp’s new iPhone app it’s drawn so much publicity it’s insane! Everybody is writing about this thing because it’s “controversial.” CNN, Mashable, Twitter, Adage, Brandweek, WSJ, Digg, you name it!!! Even if the thing has been pulled the hype surrounding the thing WAYYYYY exceeded my expectations. Pepsi double-wins because they even said they messed up and apologized.
