Top 5 Thursday: App Away
!
Something is in the water… Everywhere we turn (or tune in) this week, there’s a new app in the atmosphere. Don’t worry - I’m here to make it clear. Check out Night Out, Flud, Path and more, and tell me what you’re typing into…
A Night Out with friends is more than tagged photos on Facebook and a hangover. A Night Out is about finding a place that you can call your own and being connected to the go-to bars, clubs and restaurants in your city. It’s about finding the next best band, drink, appetizer or party all right from your smart phone. It’s about finding out there’s a new late night Happy Hour at that same ol’ place you’ve been going to for years. A Night Out is about Discovering New Places. Finding the Deals. Connecting. Making Memories. Did I mention it’s a creation of a collective clan member? Form a line for these boys (aka Brock) ladies…
Path is the Smart Journal that helps you share life with the ones you love — your thoughts, the music you’re listening to, where you are, who you’re with, when you wake and when you sleep, and beautiful high quality photos and videos. And for those of you who like to share on public networks like Twitter, Foursquare, Tumblr, and Facebook, you can easily check-in, upload photos and videos, and tweet directly from Path.
New Twitter.
The latest version of Twitter offers a faster, simpler way to stay close to everything you care about on your iPhone. Home is where you start from: a personal collection of Tweets from the sources you care about. The Tweet details show rich information such as replies, retweets and embedded images. Connect is the place to see who followed or mentioned you, retweeted or favorited one of your Tweets. It’s where you keep the conversation flowing. Discover is where you can tap into the stories and trends people are talking about in your world. You can also find friends, browse interests, and explore hashtags here. Me puts you and your interests front and center. From here you can exchange Direct Messages with your followers.
