First Global Scrapbook and Travel Magazine Now Available at iTunes App Store

DENVER, Colo. –  Sept. 24, 2009 – Oh Wow Studios, LLC, a licensed Apple software developer, introduces its premier applications for iPod Touch and IPhone. The applications, Travelholic Confessions and Secret Places, are the first mobile travel magazine and only global scrapbook dedicated to Apple products. Completely based on user-generated content from novices and professionals alike, these applications are changing what people expect from traditional iTunes apps.
“Before purchasing applications, potential users always want to know what it does,” said Oh Wow Studios Co-Founder, Razvan Carcoana. “At Oh Wow Studios, we’re challenging that standard by creating apps where the users decide the content, submitting their favorite stories, advice and photos from around the world; and are able to stay true to the market at the same time. We don’t dictate to people what they want. The users dictate what they want.”
Providing real travel scoops from real travelers, Travelholic Confessions is a space for users to share their travel experiences with millions of global readers. Less canned than traditional travel magazines, this app combines advice, humor, photos, helpful links and a signature “confession” or honest truth about exciting destinations in new monthly stories created for users by users.
Can’t afford a vacation in this economy? Secret Places can take you to far away locales whether you’re standing in line at the supermarket or sitting in your cubicle. Submitted by real travelers directly from their iPhone and without the hassle of creating an account, Secret Places provides a platform for shutterbugs to show off their photography skills in a myriad of categories.
“iPods changed the way we deliver music to our ears, the Amazon Kindle changed the way we deliver books to our libraries, and we are the first developers to recognize the impact the Apple platform has on getting out travel experiences,” said Carcoana. “With Travelholic Confessions and Secret Places we’re transforming the travel content market to provide real and insightful information to the masses.”

Oh Wow Studios is happy to announce Megan Riley as a featured writer for Travelholic Confessions app!

IMG_5527Megan Riley is part time wanderlust and part time technology sales. When not chained to a cubicle, she likes to get out and see the world. Her goal is to hit 40 countries by the time she is 40, so at 32 years old and 24 countries, she needs another 16 countries to stamp her passport in the next 8 years. In her spare time, she writes a travel blog called  www.thebigfatworld.com.

Part odd, part humor, and a whole lot of ‘what the..’ this blog is the cure to the boring day by day accounts of several travel blogs out there. In her own words, “This blog was created to help me approach new places in new ways. It’s amazing how quirky the world is when you dig just below the surface.  It is also possible, the blog exists just to flaunt my poor grammar skills. You be the judge!”

Either way, we’re happy to bring Megan’s unique and well-traveled perspective to you though the Travelholic Confessions app.

We’re proud to have Megan as a featured writer for Travelholic Confessions!

With over 1.5 billion downloads and 65,000+ free and paid apps, I pose this question:

Where is the critical mass to the app store?

Will we ever reach it ?
