Best iPhone App Developed by Some Local Dudes
gpsAssassin
Local secret geniuses and all around computer gurus Jackson Miller and Nicholas Holland claim to have no viral marketing campaign for gpsAssassin, but it's virtually impossible to be on Twitter and not hear someone talking about how great it is. Now it's not just the local online community, but folks like TechCrunch who are calling gpsAssassin "the iPhone's next highly addictive hit game." The idea is simple enough: By using GPS, players can virtually attack other players who are near them in real life. And it's that simplicity which seems to have ensured that it's a hit, though the price—free—surely doesn't hurt. BETSY PHILLIPS
