The #FollowFriday Series highlights today’s up-and-coming, active and all-around noteworthy Twitter accounts the AudioAcrobat staff deems worthy of following; while at the same time peering deeper into the soul(-cial media) of each account and providing a brief-yet-informative analysis.
Welcome back for the twenty third #FollowFriday tweet / WordPress mashup of 2012 here on the AudioAcrobat Weblog!
We’re all big fans of Kickstarter around here, and are intrigued to discover a similar themed service out there with a special affinity toward helping mobile applications get funding and development through crowdfunding and pre-order campaigns, as well as facilitating the legal aspects of buying and selling already completed apps.
In today’s post, we will dive deeper into the tweets of San Diego, CA-based app marketplace, Appsplit (@appsplit) and the Twitter accounts they have chosen to follow … a mirror, if you will, into the soul(-cial media) behind a company TechCrunch reporter John Biggs describes as being, “first and foremost a place to put your app campaigns.”
Yep. That’s right, we just said it … “soulcial media”. We also said, “a company TechCrunch reporter John Biggs describes as being, ‘first and foremost a place to put your app campaigns'” in the same sentence.

More about Appsplit
When appsplit first launched in 2011 we had 1 sole focus: apps. We started with a marketplace to buy and sell apps’ source code and ownership rights, then we introduced a blog where again we focused on apps. Blog topics have included app marketing and promotions, running an app business, how to code better apps, user interface and experience best practices, etc. Today with an unwavering focus, we launch our new website that makes funding, developing, buying, and selling apps easier than ever.
With our new website, users can create campaigns specific to their needs. Users looking for ways to turn a great idea for an app into a fully developed or enhanced app can create a campaign to fund or develop; sell campaigns allow users to sell their developed apps. And everyone is invited to browse. Whether looking for ways to contribute financially to a great idea in exchange for rewards, professionally through development in exchange for shares, or just wanting to buy a fully developed app, check back often and see what’s new at appsplit.
