Plugged In … There’s an App For That


iphoneapp.JPGWell, Plugged In’s iPhone app has been up and running for about a month now, and we’ve heard that a few of you have even downloaded the thing. This is gratifying to me personally, as I spent months slaving over code, making sure that—

My editor reminds me that I, personally, had next to nothing to do with the development of the iPhone app, due to my near complete technological ineptitude. Programming my home’s thermostat is beyond my comprehension, really, so you may all be grateful that our iPhone app was shepherded by folks with far more expertise. I know that they spent months blending our Plugged In content with all the app’s pocket-sized functionality, giving you the app you see today.

I think the app looks pretty slick. But really, what I think makes no nevermind: It’s all about what you think. With the app, we’ve included some doo-dads pretty new for us (movie trailers, user star ratings and even the ability to buy movie tickets and DVDs), and I’d love it if you iPhone users offered your thoughts and opinions—what you love about our new toy and what you don’t. And for readers who have an iPhone but don’t have our app yet, feel free to download it here, right now. We’ll wait.

Oh, and those of you (like me) who have an Android phone, we’re working on an app for you, too—one that, if all goes well, you’ll be seeing pretty soon.

Me, I can’t wait to be able to read my very own reviews on my very own phone. Of course, I’ll have to get someone to help me download the thing …
