About
MrSNAKE is the Worlds First Mobi Guide to Snakes of South Africa.
From idea to working product.
I was invited to pitch an idea to Forum Nokia at a local Mobile Monday and after pitching the idea for a mobile snake guide I won a cool Nokia 5800 as a prize. I then decided to trade the handset with a local developer and after collecting and editing info for about 2weeks we finally built the app.
Due to time limitations the app/Mbook only includes a handful of the many snakes found throughout South Africa. I started with the most dangerous and common snakes and once I have more time and have sourced more development funding I will update the app to include all the snakes found in our country, I will also add support for more handsets and future plans include the addition of multi language support.
The guide has been entered into the Nokia Calling All Innovators Developer Challenge and I look forward to reading what everyone think of this unique South African App.
I would like to thank everyone who helped turn this application into a reality.
