Fight for your dinner: Urbanspoon vs. Open Table
Open Table, the online restaurant reservation system, has swept its way into over 10,000 eating type establishments. With revenue of $55 million and an almost unbelievable, successful IPO, given the economic climate, the company has even infiltrated the suburbs. Now, iPhone App competitor Urbanspoon looks to enter the same space.
Fresh apps for the Palm Pre – is the wait over?
According to Palm’s blog, a couple of new apps have been unleashed in the world: OpenTable and Fliq Bookmarks. While neither are ground-breaking, do they point to good things to come? That answer is looking more and more like a “Yes.”
OpenTable is a restaurant reservation application that has been available on the iPhone for some time and is very handy (personal observation – when did they add menu viewing?). The presence of more mainstream apps, such as OpenTable, is a good sign that developers see the platform as worthy of effort. The other announced application Fliq Bookmarks allows users (currently Mac only) to share bookmarks from their browsers with their Palm Pre.
