D Magazine’s iPhone App

I think I’m the only one in the office without an iPhone, but that didn’t stop me from being the first person (I believe) to design an iPhone App for D’s blogs thanks to AppMakr, the open source program that unveiled yesterday and lets you design iPhone apps for any ol’ url you feel like. The catch: it costs $199 to publish the thing, which is not bad considering, though I didn’t have it on me at 11:35 last night when I made this in all of six minutes. So all I can offer this morning are images of the un-launched D app after the jump. But here’s the challenge, creative and witty denizens of the FB Nation: out-do this. Design a better D app, or better yet, design one for someone else. Surely there needs to be a John Wiley Price iPhone app, right? I bet there’s an app design that could help Mary Suhm choose a new police chief. The site couldn’t be simpler. So . . . go.

  1. Does D Publishing have a marketing agreement with AT&T and/or Apple? There have been so many posts here about the iPhone and AT&T.

    BTW, Google’s new Nexus One phone launches today. Looks like an iPhone killer. 6 MP camera, thiner than iPhone and a very fast processor.

  2. Looks nice. Now, how about an app or mobile version of the whole site? Or has that already been done?

  3. @Marketing – I don’t know, I’ll let you know if any envelopes with cash appear mysteriously on my desk today. Then again, maybe I won’t.

  4. @Marketing – There’s not multi-touch on the Nexus One. That alone makes it pretty much worthless.

  5. Peter – Ha ha. But seriously, does your company have a marketing agreement? Will you ask?

  6. You’re not really running the really old version of the iPhone OS that is in those screen shots right?

  7. Eh, that looks like a feed reader, with a logo perched atop. IJS.
