AdBowl App on New York Times Blog!

Man 2 apps in one week on the New York Yimes! AdBowl was mentioned by Advertising guru, Stuart Elliott. Here’s the full story.

ADVERTISING

An Advocacy Ad Elevates Interest in All the Ads

By STUART ELLIOTTPublished: February 4, 2010

VIEWERS look forward to the commercials shown during a Super Bowl because they know the spots will almost always be different from — and better than — the everyday ads they typically deride or ignore. For Super Bowl XLIV on Sunday, the anticipation may be more keen than usual.

“I can’t wait to watch,” said Steve McKee, president at McKee Wallwork Cleveland, an agency in Albuquerque, N.M., that for the 10th year is sponsoring a Web site, adbowl.com, where consumers can vote for their favorite commercials. For 2010, the agency is adding an Adbowl application for the iPhone.

Bringing ‘a Little More Cowbell’ to the Olympics

By LYNN ZINSER

If you ever thought the Olympics “could’ve used a little more cowbell,” there is now an iPhone app rushing to the rescue.

Cowbell2010, available on iTunes for 99 cents, turns an iPhone or an iPod Touch into a virtual cowbell, ringing loudly when the phone is shaken or the screen tapped. The cowbell on the screen is wrapped in the flag of the country of your choice, which also determines the menu language.

The cowbell is a tradition in Alpine skiing, where fans bring them to the slopes to signal support for skiers, mittened hands being rather limited in their noise-making ability.

The app also includes an event schedule, medal counts and live Twitter feeds from more than 200 Olympic athletes, according to the app’s developer.

Surely, Christopher Walken and Will Ferrell would approve.

I had the chance to work with Satellite on a Snowboard Mag Supershops Collection New Era Colab. Satellite was one of 4 shops chosen to design a n New Era for the feature.

3OH!3 @ Merch Now

It’s been amazing to have seen all this grow from back in the day. Below is the picture the original hands icon came from.

Nat emailed me this one day a couple years ago asking me to clean it up a bit and make it useable for a logo. I asked, logo for what? He said this band we’re doing called 3OH!3. Knowing the style of music he made and what Sean brought to the table I immediately knew this would be perfect. The 3OH!3 gang sign was born. (I take no credit, it was all Nat and Sean, ha)

iRealty

Fri, 09 Oct 2009 18:24:00 -0400

iRealty is a Boulder based startup that I’ve had a chance to work closely with from concept to deployment. I’ve handled all of the branding, website and mobile app design and am excited to finally get to share!

iRealty, Inc. has announced the launch of iRealty Colorado, a subscription-based service for Realtors designed to dramatically improve the way agents and home buyers work together. The iRealty Colorado website and iPhone App allows subscribing Realtors to offer their clients access to the information home buyers want when searching properties at home or on the go. Through an integrated mobile (iPhone) and web-based (desktop/laptop) application, participating agents in the Front Range can now give their clients real-time, MLS-based, search capabilities that brand the agent to the client throughout the home search process.

“Through the iRealty App and iRealtyCO.com website I can keep my contact information and brand in my clients hands instead of having them drift off to Zillow, a listing agent or a competitor’s website,” said Jay Hebb, Vice President of Walnut Realty in downtown Boulder, and a principal and co-founder of iRealty Colorado. “It is a great feeling to know that I am giving my clients the best home-search and discovery experience available on the market.”

The iRealty Colorado iPhone App incorporates complete MLS data with GPS-based property searches; interactive mapping to view properties for sale in surrounding neighborhoods; immediate sold/comp information and home value estimates. It also allows buyers to search for homes, save them in their Favorites file (in either iPhone or through the agent’s iRealty website) and email them to their agent, friends and family. There is also an auto-populated mortgage calculator next to each home being viewed, without the need to flip to another website. All the information is available in “real time” so agents and their clients can find homes just moments after they are listed in the MLS, even while out actually looking at homes.

GOSK8 App: Geoff Rowley & Erik Ellington join the team

“The New Faces of GOSK8”

GOSK8 is proud to welcome onboard pro skateboarders Erik Ellington (Deathwish skateboards) and Geoff Rowley (Flip skateboards) who will serve as the new face of the company.

GOSK8 is a new iPhone application/tool for physically playing the traditional game of skate. The developers of GOSK8 have gone to great lengths to spice the game up by adding three different skill levels (basic, medium, advanced) and four obstacle options (ledge, manual, transition, flat-ground), making it the only skate application of its kind.

Rowley - “GOSK8 takes the game of S.K.A.T.E. to the next level. There are so many options with the different levels and obstacles that anyone at any level can play it.”

Ellington - “When I first downloaded GOSK8 to my iPhone I didn’t expect it to be so sick. There are hundreds of tricks depending on what level and obstacle you choose. What I really liked most is that you can play by yourself or against another skater. This is no “sit on your ass” game. You actually have to get out there and skate with GOSK8.”

Geoff and Erik will be battling it out in a series of games using the GOSK8 app. Stay tuned for videos hitting the web soon.
