Apple Thoughts: Matt Parkman: Hero to Stores

"Greg Grunberg is more than twittering Heroes celebrity, but through Twitter, he was able to make an idea come to life. His idea was Yowza!. It's an iPhone and iPod Touch app that uses your location to find deals near you. If you're out shopping, you can find out what stores are offering deals near you, in either a 5, 10 or 15 mile radius. The app also lets you search by city to enable you to plan ahead and still save money."

Neat idea, although I'll admit that the only reason I even posted it was because it was Greg Grunberg's app. I happen to be a big fan of Heroes no matter how much it disappoints me week after week. You can find out more about Yowza at www.getyowza.com.
