WHERE™ Developer Program
The WHERE Developer Program includes:
- Access to the GPS that is embedded in many popular mobile phones
- A simple markup and scripting language that allow you to create full-featured BREW/J2ME mobile applications that run within the WHERE consumer handset experience
- Phone emulators, documentation, and samples for building your WHERE application
We're proud to announce the winners of our Spring 2008 developer contest. The grand prize went to Mediated Space's Skymap widget. There were also three great runner ups: Mapicurious, DigOrDis, and VoiceMap.mobi.
See the winners.
We recently broadcasted a webcast going over a few basic JIN examples, as well as how to modify your widget to work on BlackBerry. Watch the archive.
NAVTEQ announced at CTIA WIRELESS 2008 that 3 of the 4 winning applications were built on the WHERE platform. Congratulations to Mediated Spaces, HeyWhatsThat, and America's Emergency Network.
Each received $10,000 in cash along with data licenses valued at $400,000. Watch the awards ceremony.
WHERE recently launched on BlackBerry, and you'll need to make some modifications to your widget to have it display properly on BlackBerry devices.
