The best way to get to know the best apps is to get to know the people recommending them. Whether social media guru, gamer, or parent, introduce yourself here.

Mike, by the way, I noticed in your profile you run Back on My Feet, which helps the homeless through running. Tell us more!

Back on My feet is a really cool organization: http://www.backonmyfeet.org

We run with members of local (Philadelphia) homeless shelters. We run 3 days a week at 5:30. Our goal is to help build connections and self esteem. We recently had one member of our team run the Philadelphia Marathon and another run the half marathon. It's an amazing organization.

Hi....My name is Tracy and I live in Natchitoches, Louisiana (the oldest permanent settlement in the Louisiana Purchase). I'm a hotel manager, landlord, and dirty old man still chasing college girls. Bought my iphone in mid-October so I'm still pretty new to the phone itself, ALL the apps, and this website.

My company may decide to do Mobile Apps, we are hoping to do both iPhone and Android together, we'll see how that goes.

Hi Chris - nice to meet you! That's awesome that you're thinking of starting a mobile app company - you can do great research here!

It's not so much a Mobile App company, as it is an already existing company expanding into Mobile Apps. We are work with PC gaming and Flash.

I work in the International Development arena, in particular broadband and ICT innovations. I live in a world of APPS and Social Media. I love your idea of a Chinese character OCR but imagine that with a dictionary of 500K characters and radicals, it may be a difficult task but nonetheless an excellent one.

Hey all! I'm Jessica and I'm not really sure where to start about me. I do a bunch of work for different nonprofits including help desk support for Community Voice Mail (no, voice mail is not dead, especially for those that can't afford a cell phone!) and consulting for TechSoup Global.

I'm also the founder of Seattle Free School, a nonprofit discussed at this years SXSW. We're a bit different from most nonprofits in that we don't take cash donations of any kind from anyone ever. Really! Figuring out how to get things free is quickly becoming my specialty (which is why I love good free apps!)
