IPhone app sharing service AppsFire (our review) has announced a contest to highlight the best still-unlaunched iPhone apps under development and ReadWriteWeb will be part of the judging. Called the App Star Awards, the contest will evaluate 30-second videos about apps under development.
The iPhone app environment is absurdly overcrowded and hard to navigate – AppsFire is one of my favorite solutions to that problem. The service lets you email links to apps you want to share on your phone. It’s simple but so useful! A contest to start the hype for apps before they get buried in the app store is smart.
Below are my favorite iPhone apps right now, shared in an AppsFire widget. I hope this contest will expose me to all kinds of new apps that will eventually land on this list as well.
We’ll get to learn about great apps and the app makers will get a small amount of cash and a large amount of publicity. You can register to participate at the page for the AppStar Contest.
