Seeing the iForest for the Trees

Found this one on a Trendcentral email from The Intelligence Group.

 Nothing like jumping on the Green/Social Networking/iPhone App bandwagons simultaneously.

From the iPhorest.com website:

“Once you download the app, you can virtually grow your tree

• You dig a hole by creating a digging motion until your seedling appears
• Plant the seedling
• Shake your phone to create a storm and when the sun comes your tree begins to grow
• Repeating this will allow your tree to reach full growth
• Share your tree growth at any stage with others by pressing the share button to email them a picture
• Go up to Forest, where you can reset your growth.
• Go up to see all of the other iPhorest users. Help green the Earth - the app places a dot where you first launch iPhorest.

Tree planting services are provided to iPhactory by The Conservation
Fund. For each virtual tree planted, The Conservation Fund will plant a
native tree in real life - starting with restoration of vulnerable
wildlife habitats along the Gulf Coast in the United States. They will
work with the nation’s leading public natural resource agencies to
ensure the long-term protection of each iPhorest.” Learn more.

Have a happy spring weekend and Earth Hour this weekend ya’ll.
