CircleClick attended the 3rd annual SF Appshow in San Francisco last week. Hosted by Seth Socolow and presented by Gina Smith, SF Appshow featured this years newest mobile applications for iPhone, iPad and Android devices. Ten apps in all, each app was presented and voted on by the audience and also, viewers watching via live stream. There was even an all iPhone / iPad band called Smule, it was pretty cute… Needless to say I was into it.

Smule inspired…

These are the presenting apps:

No matter what you’re interested in, SF AppShow had something for everyone. I really think Madfire is going to do well, they give you a whole new method to geek out. Stay.com is also going to be very useful for me as I’m a traveler. I knew Stay.com was the real deal when I looked up my home city and saw some things featured that I’ve never even heard about. I love that! AppDisco also gets MAD CRED for starting out on the android platform. I was only disappointed by the amount of demonstrators who were starting on iPhone only…. This isn’t VHS and Beta max, android has a very real audience and one that shouldn’t be ignored.

The after party at Temple was also quite a hoot. Smule really broke it down on the dance floor. I’ve never seen anyone so excited to show off their Gangham style moves! Gina and Seth were a great hosting duo. Well done lady and gent, we’ll be seeing you again soon.
