Asia's Top 10 Apps

亚洲最成功50款应用前十名

Flutterscape（日本）

该应用是一款以现实信息为特征的跨国社交市场，支持日本用户通过该平台分享并买卖当地市场产品，但也提供海外交易服务。比如说日本用户在当地市场发现一款好玩的产品，可以将产品照片上传到Flutterscape，标注价格，进行产品描述等。有意购买的海外用户可以通过Flutterscape网站拍下该产品（比如说卡拉OK机等），然后再由卖主到当地市场采购，提交给Flutterscape物流中心，由Flutterscape负责发货、计费、支付等事宜。

Zopim（新加坡）

Zopim是一款主要用于商务洽谈的在线网页聊天应用，最大的卖点在于它的设计非常简便，只需在网站输入代码即可提供服务。该应用支持多人在线聊天，多国语言系统以及多平台运行（适用于所有的浏览器，多种即时讯息工具和智能手机）等功能。最主要特征在于其特殊界面，用户通过该界面不但可以同时与多名客户聊天，还可以监控他们的相关信息（比如说所在区域、主要访客、访问历史纪录等），甚至可以分析他们的信息浏览模式。

Gantibaju（印度尼西亚）

该应用是一款非常本土化的T-shirt设计服务应用，支持设计师直接与印尼客户进行沟通，根据他们的创意要求设计T-shirt并提交给客户，据称该应用目前每月可征集到约1000条的设计创意。

Sekai Camera（日本）

这是一款免费的增强现实技术应用，在2008年问世，适用于iPhone、Android、iPad以及互联网平台，支持在社交游戏和其他应用中配置增强现实技术。

mig33（新加坡）

mig33拥有4000万用户，是亚洲最大的手机社交网站（尽管它也向全球开放，但在印度和印尼尤其受到欢迎）。这是一款集网络语音电话、即时讯息工具、短信、电子邮件、图片分享、游戏、聊天、虚拟礼品等多项功能于一体的Java下载应用。

Creately（澳大利亚和斯里兰卡）

该应用是一款在线图表设计工具，是基于浏览器运行的应用，支持多位在线用户绘制流程图、线框、网络图、网站地图、业务流程图以及其他图表类型。

TwitCasting Live（日本）

TwitCasting Live顾名思义，其目的就是鼓励用户通过Twitter上传视频，是一款与Twitter绑定的免费iPhone应用。使用过程中，TwitCasting Live会将手机屏幕分割成上下两截，上截用于播放在线视频，下截用于运行Twitter界面，用户可边看视频边更新Twitter，或浏览其他网站。只要你开始记录视频，你的Twitter好友只需点击网站链接，即可在自己的PC、iPhone、iPad平台分享你正在观看的内容。

ShowNearby（新加坡）

这款应用主要基于地理定位功能，适用于iPhone、黑莓、Android和互联网平台。目前仅限于新加坡地区，主要为用户提供附近场所信息，比如说自动取款机、餐厅、便利店等位置。

Stictok（韩国）

这是一款Facebook应用，支持用户通过虚拟贴纸交到新友。这些虚拟贴纸上的内容是用户现有好友的个性描述，Stictok系统将自动对这些描述进行分类，为用户找到与其趣味相投的新伙伴。

Asia’s Top 50 Apps at Accelerate 2010: The top 10

Flutterscape (Japan)
Pitched as a real-time, cross-border social market place, Flutterscape lets users not only share cool product discoveries from Japan but also enables purchases from abroad. The way it works is that Japan-based users can sell an item discovered locally on Flutterscape by submitting pictures, the price, a description etc. People outside Japan can then buy it on the site (i.e. this karaoke machine). The seller purchases the item for the buyer at the local store, sends it to the Flutterscape logistics center, which ships it to the customer and also takes care of the billing and payment.

Zopim (Singapore)
Zopim is a web-based live chat application for businesses that shows up as a customizable chat widget on your website (no pop-ups). The main selling point of the service is its simplicity, as copying and pasting a few lines of code into the website is enough. Zopim features multi-agent-chat, multi-language and multi-platform support (for all browsers, various IM clients and smartphones). A core element is the Zopim dashboard, from where you can chat with multiple customers, monitor them live as they surf (location, repeat visitors, history, etc.) and analyze browsing patterns.

Gantibaju (Indonesia)
CEO Aria Rajasa isn’t a big fan of the comparison, but I’ll make it anyway: Gantibaju is basically Indonesia’s hyper-localized answer to t-shirt design service Threadless. The main idea is to empower local designers to get in touch with Indonesian customers who can buy selected t-shirts directly through the site. Rajasa says Gantibaju currently receives close to 1,000 design ideas monthly. More info on this startup can be found here.

Sekai Camera (Japan)
TechCrunch50 superstar Tonchidot has made it to the Accelerate Top 10 with Sekai Camera, its free augmented reality application. Sekai Camera has gone a long way since 2008, and is now available for iPhone, Android, iPad, and on the web. Tonchidot also introduced an API (dubbed OpenAir) and just launched its app platform that makes it possible to deploy augmented reality-powered social games and other apps within the Sekai Camera ecosystem. More info on Sekai Camera can be found in my previous blog post.

buUuk (Singapore)
buUuk is a location-based/augmented reality iPhone and Android app that helps users locate good restaurants and bars in a number of countries in the Middle East and Asia (even in North Korea). The free app gives you directions to locations near you, apart from letting you map, review and discuss them with other users. buUuk users can also search for restaurants by cuisine, location and rating, get discounts or share tips via Twitter and Facebook.

mig33 (Singapore)
With around 40 million users, mig33 is one of the biggest mobile social networks in Asia (even though it’s available globally, it’s particularly strong in India and Indonesia). The download Java app rolls VOIP features, instant messaging, texting, e-mailing, picture sharing, gaming, chatting, virtual gifting and other features into one. We last covered mig33 back in March.

Creately (Australia and Sri Lanka)
Creately is an online diagramming and design tool that was showcased at TechCrunch50′s Demopit in 2008. The entirely browser-based application lets multiple users create flow charts, wireframes,network diagrams, sitemaps, business process diagrams and other designs collaboratively. We last covered Creately in September last year.

TwitCasting Live (Japan)
If you ever wanted to stream live video and tweet about it at the same time, then TwitCasting is the right app for you. As its name suggests, the free iPhone app (main app/Viewer) is tightly integrated into Twitter. It splits the phone screen in half: on the top, you broadcast live video. On the bottom half, you can post updates to Twitter, view your timeline or access other websites.

Every time you start a recording, you can send out an automatic tweet to your followers who just need to click on a link to start viewing the broadcast on their PC (TwitCasting’s website), the iPhone or iPad. We covered TwitCasting in March.

ShowNearby (Singapore)
ShowNearby is a location-based listings app that runs on the iPhone, Blackberry, Android, and the web. Currently available for Singapore only, the app displays the nearest places of interest, for example ATMs, restaurants, convenience stores etc.

Stictok (South Korea)
Stictok is a Facebook app that lets you find new friends based on virtual stickers that contain profiles your existing friends have created. Stictok compares the interests users listed up in these stickers and makes recommendations to befriend other users based on that. The company behind the app, Seoul-based moglue, is currently working on a great-looking interactive ebook building platform called “Active StoryTeller”.
