Wikitude, the maker of the world’s first AR browser, once again is amongst the top in a major developer contest. Introducing “Wikitude MyWorld“, one of 6 finalists at the Evernote Developer Challenge. Thursday, August 18, at 13:00 PST - Wikitude MyWorld will be presented at the Evernote Trunk Conference (ETC).
About a year ago, after facing the difficulty of finding trustworthy travel information on the Internet, we made a striking observation. We all follow the same pattern when preparing for a trip, whether it is looking for a great hotel in Hawaii, or simply a place to spend a Sunday afternoon when an old friend comes to town.
Recommendations from family and friends is the number one influence in making decisions.
We browse the Internet, we Google, look at hotel leaflets, consider a happy hour voucher, trawl through tons of websites. And of course, the more important our trip is, the more time we spend researching. But when it comes to nailing down a decision, what do we do? We talk to friends.
You, your friends and family own a great pool of knowledge altogether and most likely you share common interests. The best tips are mostly shared by word-of-mouth, you’re all connected through social media, and there are over 100 Mio FB posts a day!
So we thought why not build a app around that! An app that is built around the fact that friends and family are the Nr. 1 influence in making decisions.
You can try out Wikitude MyWorld (beta) here.
