In addition to this presentation, we challenged the agency to test drive retail shopping related apps, ranging from favorite store apps, retail sites, and other shopping related apps. Here's what we found:

Poshmark

A retail site and app where you browse through user’s “closets”. They submit images of items they have for sale! They also hold retail parties where you’re able to securely check out and buy directly from your phone.

NYC Sample Sales App

Perk: If you need to kill some time in NYC the map is a nice discovery tool to discover sample sales near you.

Con: It mixes in regular store sales and you cannot filter those out.

Here are some of the winning idaes:

What's a date without spooning?

Koi love

How about a nice long walk along the.. train tracks?

Some great apps to use when traveling, but need something to do?

Foursquare: Explore.

This app has a common misconception that it's only for checking in, but if that's all you use it for, you're missing out! Try clicking "search nearby" on the app, and let the exploring begin!

Viator: Be a tourist.

Find attractions nearby, or plan a trip in a foreign place - all on your phone!

And, this..

In light of the theme, here are some of the Entertainment Core Team's favorite apps they think you ought to know about:

weotta - Helps you find fun stuff to do based on when, where, and what you're planning.

archetype me - Finds content based on your personality type, Jungian!

fan duel - Fantasy sports betting site that lets you create leagues based on specific teams for as short as just one day.

Amazon Auto Rip - Amazon is giving you mp3 versions of every CD you purchased from them since 1998. Seriously.

Roadtrippers - Plots the quickest route between two points, but adds a corridor in which to discover history, nature, attractions, entertainment, and more.

GIF SHOP - Make some GIFs, why don't you?

KeyMe - Never get locked out of your house again. Unless you lock your iPhone in your house, in which case, you're screwed.

Rdio- Listen to your favorite jams, anywhere.

Action Movie FX  - Add Hollywood FX to iPhone AND iPad movies that YOU shoot! Spielburg, watch out!

Disney infinity - Add Disney characters into your photos and make it seem like they were there IRL!

Pulse - News, anywhere, anytime.

Flipboard - Curate, read, collect your favorite news stories.

Flow Free - Probably the most addicting game (second to Candy Crush, duh)

Candy Crush - One word: Beware! Highly addictive. Okay, make that three words.

Temple Run - RUN! And find treasure, a fun game for anyone.

Beat Sneak Bandit - This may be the only rhythm stealth game with a sweet classical animation style

Spaceteam - is a party game that works on iOS and Android devices.  It gets you, and some friends, to yell various techno-babble at each other while trying to save your spaceship.

Dark Sky - is an amazing weather app. You can even set it to notify you a few minutes before it starts raining!

Hype Machine - Probably the best music app for music addicts - discover new (good) music, listen offline, and stream all on your mobile device.
