Person of the Day – NYC iPhone App
Posted: August 20, 2009 Filed under: development, mobile | Tags: application, iphone, kenny perrone, trattoria, twitter, web, williamsburg Comments OffNew York is a city known for its “characters” – people who lead unusual and interesting lives. Each day, Person of the Day – NYC features one such person. Part iPhone application, part website and Twitter feed, Person of the Day – NYC is an integrated celebration of the diversity and madness that is New York City.
Viewing a photo and short biography of the featured person each day will renew your love of life and interest in humanity – the type that lurks in subway entrances and eats pizza while walking in the rain. Furthermore, Person of the Day – NYC will give you just another thing to poke with your index finger while you’re commuting on the subway (yes, the data is cached on your iPhone while you’re underground).
Anyone can nominate anyone else to be the next Person of the Day by simply taking a photo and writing a brief blurb about them. Entries can be submitted via the iPhone app or the P.o.D website.
Pending editorial review, you may just see your nomination show up on iPhones across the world the following day!
