You Could Win a Reward for Finding iPhone Apps at Appolicious

CHICAGO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Nobody likes a shadow, except perhaps at Appolicious Inc. If you’re looking for an easy way to search for, discover and download the best iPhone apps, then Appolicious is the destination for you. In a world with more than 100,000 iPhone apps (and growing), Appolicious can be your trusted source for quickly striking iPhone-app gold, or sidestepping apps better left unfound.

“The problem of discovering great iPhone apps will only be compounded as more and more companies roll out apps. We’re giving people a collective intelligence around finding the apps that best suit their lifestyle.”

Beginning today, Appolicious kicks off its 32GB iPod touch Giveaway. Anyone who registers as a member of Appolicious before 11:59 PM (CST) on December 1, 2009, will be entered in a random drawing for a free 32GB iPod touch. Users who have already registered will also be automatically entered into the drawing.

Appolicious will also give away a second iPod touch in a separate, random drawing from among the top 15 percent of active Appolicious members. Member activity includes writing app reviews, rating apps, adding apps to your app library, and attracting followers on Appolicious, among other activities. So the more apps you review, rate, and add and followers you have, the better your chances of winning become.

When you join Appolicious.com for free, you immediately get recommendations about iPhone apps from:

• people you follow,
• other people who share your likes and dislikes, and
• the Appolicious editorial team – who program a daily “App of the Day” to quickly show particularly intriguing apps for consideration.

By going to the Appolicious.com built-in search bar at the top of each page users can type the name of an app and instantly find ratings, reviews, and a quick list of who’s talking about the app, all designed to help people make a quick decision about whether or not an app is worth downloading. Along with every search, Appolicious’ best-in-class technology delivers social activity around the app (i.e., who among your friends uses the app), media mentions about the app, and videos and pictures of the app.

“The world of iPhone apps is growing exponentially, and Appolicious’ social network is a phenomenal way to connect with the people you trust to find the iPhone apps you’ll love,” said Alan K. Warms, founder and CEO of Appolicious Inc. “The problem of discovering great iPhone apps will only be compounded as more and more companies roll out apps.
