Apptism -- a great site for finding and tracking applications

By Jim Karpen Sat, 10/25/2008

The App Store is a real breakthrough in the mobile world, making it easy to purchase and download applications. But it's not always easy to find what you're looking for or to track the latest reviews and developments related to applications that interest you.

Thanks what makes the Apptism web site so powerful. It gives you the tools you need to find and track iPhone apps

In the words of Rob Libbey, the site's founder, it's not a typical blog or review website, but rather a completely unique and custom application focused on iPhone app activity and content aggregation.

Apptism indexes all iPhone apps from the iTunes App Store and aggregates the latest news, reviews, and media related to the iPhone apps. All app activity is aggregated from various news and content sources, including YouTube.

Apptism also provides extensive searching, sorting, and filtering capabilities to help the iPhone community find and track apps within the constantly growing App Store:

• Sort by Recent Activity, Most Active, Popular Apps, Newest Apps, and Updated Apps.

• Filter by Free/Paid, Category, Price, and Activity Type.

Some additional unique features include: Comparisons, Related Apps, e-mail and SMS alerts, Watch List, Version History, and more. Check out the About page for a more complete list of features.
