Hey guys, I recently came up with an idea for a new app I will call "Socialize" and I wanted some feedback on it. I am currently working on it and will have a preview of my progress up within a few weeks. It won't have that many features, as my first priority is Twitter support, and the first preview will probably only have the ability to login and post a tweet.
What is Socialize?
Socialize is a new way to manage all your social 'stuff' from one place. Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, and Google+ will be the first supported networks. Chat support will probably be added in later.
Isn't there already and app that does the same thing/has the same name?
No. I spent about an hour a week ago searching for such an app and didn't find one. There is also no app with the name "Socialize."
So yeah guys, leave your thoughts below, if you have any recommendations, leave a reply! No stealing my idea either.
I really like the title. Doesn't Seesmic do this though?

Seesmic only supports Facebook and Twitter. I plan on supporting all the social networks that have an available API. And thanks, took me hours to think of such a simple name
Cool idea. It would be nice to have an all in one app for that. I hope you plan to support Google+?

Great idea but social hub from Samsung does the same thing

What was that one that Ryan from dunder mifflin paper made? But yea your going to have an issue with permissions unless you have a very big budget.
take it from me. I own an LLC and are creating a cross platform music centric (but dont think were just a music player) app.
My costs are withing the 500 to 700 thousand dollar ballpark. I would estimate around 1/4th of what im paying unless you plan to develop market anf publish yourself.

Not everyone has a Samsung you know. This is for every phone, and tablet, not just ours. Plus this will look better than that piece of crap bloatware.

I'm doing it all myself bro.
As far as I can remember google+ is doesn't have an api. I don't think any google related app has an available api.

Thats sweet to save on building costs but you need marketing, placement & promo (for people to know you exist) and licensing from all of those social media sited that don't want third party apps displaying their content for free

I knew it would come! Since im on T-Mobile, it won't effect me right away but:

Which takes away a basic core service that's been around before ISO even existed. Remember desktop search from Windows 95?
I COMPLETELY DEPEND on the global search mechanism on the Google widget because i keep everything sorted using keywords. I have over a thousand contacts separated by keywords, linked together with emails and pics (im in the building trade industry).
Google is known for their awesome search capabilities using keywords, how can they strip something like this away.
I need this search ability. The iphone is very tempting now.

Don't worry, you can reinstall that function. I already have the .apk on my computer in case they force an update on us.

Its really said because I think its a great feature and I use it all the time. Is there a way yet to keep our phone from installing this update? I think someone needs to pull the app off the phone right now and make a .apk file that we can install again

it's not Sprint's thing, it's Apple forcing Google to do this. I'm sure it'll only be temporary, once the judge involved figures out Apple never had it first.

Dude is a troll plain and simple. His replies betray his genuineness .
meanwhile, trolls aside, I really don't understand how Apple won the injunction with the overwhelming prior art of Google Desktop Search [released Oct 2004] and (I really dislike using this as an example of anything, but it applies) BonziBUDDY [released 1999].
to lesser extents, we have:
ISYS
- prototyped as "Homer" in 1987
- released in 1988
---- was actually a tool to search documents and databases on a private network, searched locally as well
Copernic Search
- released in 1996
---- web multi-search tool, local search functions added well before iPhone (I don't remember when though)
Microsoft Actors/Agents
- released originally as MS Bob in Mar 1995
Windows Desktop Search
- as of v4, included with WinVista, RTM Nov, 2006

Im not trying to troll, however i do agree i sounded a little trolly.
Im just pissed at Google for caving into Apple.
I own SGSII, i bought a SGSIII for my wife.
I just updated the Starbucks app, and now they have a widget. I LOVE WIDGETS. The iphone doesn't have widgets. So it would be crazy for me to wanna buy an iphone. Just a little angry, that's all. See, i still want to get ME my SGSIII the pebble while my wife has the white.
You think its a little wishful thinking if this is only a temporary thing?

I was thinking the same. I figure we will get access on that day. Maybe a free download.
tmobile had no idea
Just got off the phone with tmobile level 2 support and they had no idea about the device coming preloaded with most wanted. He asked if I had receiced a free demo, but after explaining to hik that it was supposed to be preloaded and just not playable to launch date he said he had no idea and offered to give me samsungs number. Lame. I was really looking forward to playing this game without having to pay 7 bucks.
This is so lame. Thought at least a demo would be available for T-Mobile note 2 users.
now on the phone with ea
Ea seems to have no idea either. But im stilk waiting on the line so we will see. Up next is google play store.

I just clicked the link & it's working, now. It downloaded the demo (WiFi only). Sends you to Google Play to purchase the full version.

It will be resolved when app develops resolve it.

Considering that the OS has been around for a bit over a week I'm amazed at how many apps ARE compatible.
If you have mission critical stuff, by all means go back to or stay with 4.2.x until the specific developer updates.
Otherwise enjoy the new OS and be patient. The good Devs are on it...

Well worth it being without a few apps for awhile.
This is the price we pay for being the very first to get these updates. I don't mind it myself but for those that are bothered just wait for a free weeks before upgrading next time to give the app devs time to catch up.
Food anyone have the amazon store.apk? Not the app store but the app for the regular store. I think it will work but play store won't let me download.
