Ok, so it’s summer in Ibiza and the silliness is starting a little early this year, everyone who is anyone (and quite a few who aren’t too we expect..) are only now jumping on the Ibiza iPhone App bandwagon.
That’s all well and good, there are rumours of some good guys working on them that we know of, the world’s best Dance Music TV (or video) site DanceTrippin.tv have one in development, as do Ibiza Global Radio.
But they were all beaten to the punch by local outfit iPhone Ibiza who were onto this over a year ago and launched their own app (the first and FREE Ibiza iPhone app) based on their main website’s painstakingly gathered GPS information, at the beginning of May 09.
More recently to the table (following Ibiza Sonica Radio’s app - another genuine homegrown “Ibiza App”) and launched with the usual music business hype came the Ministry of Sound, who bizarrely enough ended up using one of our friends (and wannabe TV Presenter) Ruth Osborn to film their Ibiza App launch video, (and then didn’t get it ready in time for the launch
)
This section has been edited to reflect latest developments 1hour and 10 minutes after first posting.
Basically it appears there was a little controversy over ownership of some data on the new MOS app, which could only have come from Ibiza App #1’s workings and painstakingly gathered GPS information over many months (to 5 decimal points )
Initially there was some “confusion” about the matter, but shortly after having this SEARCH RESULT pointed out to them they phoned up, apologized very nicely, and said they were removing the offending part of the App.
See? it was all just a silly misunderstanding after all…
Apparently it takes about 2 weeks to filter through the Apple system, which is co-incidentally about how long the original version of this post will remain in the Google “cached page” index, until they re-index and replace it with this version.
