Milk’s Oink App Now on iOS App Store

Posted by at 10:52 am on November 4, 2011

Kevin Rose’s new startup Milk has posted its first app project, the free Oink app. The iOS app serves as a way of recommending particular products at a location, such as a meal or a theme park ride, and ranks them based on the number of votes. Users can search for whatever’s best in a given area, and they can favorite, vote down, or give a ‘so-so’ rank if they think an item ranks in between.

While it doesn’t have pure check-ins like Foursquare, Oink tracks rankings and gives users “cred” that ranks them up and signals their votes as more trustworthy in certain areas. Some similar features, such as to-do lists and photo attachments, carry over.

Activity can share out over Foursquare as well as Facebook and Twitter.
