Not For Tourists iPhone Application
Not For Tourists, Inc., New York, New York, 2009
Description
Not for Tourists (NFT) iPhone applications put the most exciting cities on the planet in the comfort of your own pocket. With beautiful custom maps and thousands of essential listings, NFT applications will help you accomplish any task in just a few seconds, including: caffeinate, buy paint at 3:00 a.m., fix your bike, mail a late birthday card, chill out in a community garden, buy arugula from the nearest farmers’ market or find a hotel by the hour (seriously, they’re that comprehensive). And they’re incredibly fast. Unlike most travel apps, NFT doesn’t need to be online to work its magic. Whether you’re on the subway at rush hour or in the middle of a city park on a lazy Sunday, the NFT iPhone applications will be there for you.
Juror Notes
A great foray into the app space. Highly utilitarian and a great systems addition to the guidebook. I only wish the gradients had been toned down a notch. When not done well, gradients and 3-D effects can ruin what might otherwise be a beautiful interface.
