Scenic Highway 30A, Florida – (March 12, 2009) – 30A.com unveiled a new product especially designed for iPhone users today. The free application (or “app”) is now available for download at www.30A.com, as well as worldwide through Apple’s iTunes Store.
“This is a very exciting new way for locals and visitors to stay connected with everything that 30A has to offer,” said Mike Ragsdale, the company’s founder. “It’s another great way for local businesses to reach new customers.”
The free 30A application capitalizes on iPhone’s built-in GPS functionality, so users can quickly browse, research and contact the restaurants and bars that are closest to their current geographic location. They can also search specific 30A communities for dining and entertainment options.
“We’re most excited about the app’s ability to share and promote real-time event information,” said Ragsdale. “Perhaps you want to know which bands are playing live along 30A tonight, or maybe you’ve heard about some big beach bash or an art show or parade, but you’re just not sure where it is or how to participate. The new 30A iPhone app has it all.”
In addition to the parent site, 30A.com, the company also recently acquired “ThirtyA.com” and “30-A.com” and launched a line of 30A-branded apparel. But 30A for the iPhone is the company’s first mobile application.
“The Spring Breakers have arrived, thankfully, and they’re hungry for entertainment,” said Ragsdale. “The new 30A app is a wonderful and unique way for iPhone users to discover what’s going on, right now, whether they’re sitting in their car in Atlanta, in a doctor’s office, in a mall or just relaxing somewhere on one of 30A’s beautiful beaches. 30A is now literally at their fingertips.”
