\"\"<\/a>We’re finding that many of our readers and twitter followers love to try out new applications.\u00a0 Any time we mention a developer is looking for feedback or insight into their application(s), you guys seem to jump all over it.\u00a0 Here’s another one, and its a pretty big title – Gowalla<\/strong>.<\/span><\/p>\n

Gowalla is a location-based social networking game<\/a> that seems to be picking up quite a bit of steam. Many liken it to foursquare in how it lets users to checkin to places, share locations, experiences, and pick up stamps for their ‘passport’. I downloaded Gowalla earlier this morning and can already see myself getting addicted to it.\u00a0 However, I am not certain I will be integrating twitter into it just yet.\u00a0 I don’t wanna flood the feed with all the places I visit around town.<\/p>\n

Reading through the Gowalla blog, it sounds like the developers are pretty big on Android.\u00a0 Official representative Josh Williams posted a short blurb on the status of the app where he says, “…Our goal has been to do this right and provide a premium experience on the Android platform. We don’t want it to play second fiddle to the iPhone.”<\/p>\n

If beta testing and social networking games are your thing, then I would recommend heading to http:\/\/static.gowalla.com\/gowalla-android-20100212.apk<\/a> from your Android handset.\u00a0 You can also scan the barcode below with your Android phone and get there too.<\/p>\n

Thanks for the heads up<\/a> Wes!<\/p>\n
