One of many things I’ve been gradually whittling into reasonable shape over the past few months is a new informational blog to coincide with the launch of the iPad entitled iPad Apps Buzz.

The premise of the site is to provide quality-over-quantity reviews on iPad apps to attempt to counteract the huge amount of semi-useless apps on the App Store and help readers to sift through the might-have-beens to find the must-haves. The idea developed organically from a need that I wanted addressed – namely, the App Store Top 10 doesn’t so much introduce you to hidden gems as it does give the same apps everyone else has. Even then, the top 10 doesn’t often even contain compelling apps – at least none that compel me.

The fork of logic that comes out of this is, I’m a person like me (!), there’s bound to be others like me. Disenfranchised by an App Store where the apps with workmanship and serious utility are a chore to find. Apps like Mixr that make you say “Hot damn, I actually need to buy one of these, instead of watching from the sideline.”

Thus, this site was born. At the moment I’m trying to find regular contributors. If you’re interested in writing for a fast-growing essential information source on the iPad, email me at james.eunson@gmail.com and we can get started.
