Jazz Up That iPhone/Android/Blackberry Eh Whatever You Got

Posted by admin in MOBILE on 11-03-09    No Comments

All this hype over the Android has meant one thing: getting the right sports app for your phone is no longer the chore it once was. Now companies are lining up to stick sports crap apps on your phone. And a hot one right now is Plusmo over at plusmo.com. The operation has built a rapid prototyping language for mobile apps. So it can take data from anywhere and stick it on any phone. So the operation has has thousands of different apps ready to slide right on your  phone. And some are not ones for sports. The College Football Live App is not awful. And expect Plusmo to only  get better. AT&T just bought the firm earlier this fall. And considering how crappy their network is — iPhone users can feel our pain — this sort of sport content is about the only thing that will keep subs. Let the App wars begin.
