BlackBerry users, werdehel are you? We got a little something.

At the Indosat BlackBerry Community Gathering last Saturday (20/2), Koprol unveiled the first mobile app to use Koprol API.

Introducing Werdehel?

Werdehel? is a simple BlackBerry app that can find places nearby, and see their distance, ratings, map. It can also open the browser and show activities of people and reviews of that place. Features:

Find Places Nearby. Start Werdehel? and it will immediately guess your area and other places nearby, along with its users' ratings and distance.

Open Place. Click a place and you will be sent to Koprol where you can see people's activities and reviews of that place.

Search Place. Click 'S' and type a name or type of food to find nearest matching places.

View on Map. To view a particular place on your BlackBerry map, choose 'View on Map' from the Context Menu.

Other goodies like Tell a friend, Help, Update, can be found in the Context menu.

How it works: Werdehel? finds your location based on cell tower information, and then shows list of places based on Koprol's database provided by the Koprol API.

It's for Everybody: Werdehel? is for all BlackBerry users, not just Koprollers. You don't need a Koprol account to use Werdehel? But for Koprol users, it's very useful because they can post very easily at current location. They can also add reviews, comments, and even add new places.

Disclaimer: Make no mistake, this is just a little teaser from Koprol, to demonstrate the use of Koprol API. It is NOT the full-featured Koprol app which, by the way, is gonna be awesome!

SIARAN PERS

Koprol, suatu jaringan sosial buatan lokal, diperkenalkan oleh Yahoo! sebagai contoh pemakai Yahoo! API dalam Yahoo Open Hack Day 2009 yang berlangsung 21-22 Nov di Balai Kartini.

Open Hack Day bertujuan memperkenalkan Yahoo! Developer Tools seperti Yahoo! API ke para pengembang Asia Tenggara dengan memberikan penyuluhan gratis selama sehari, kemudian lomba hacking menggunakan Yahoo! API selama semalam. Open Hack sudah sering dilakukan di Amerika dan negara lain, tapi baru kali ini di Asia Tenggara.

Koprol membuktikan bahwa Yahoo! Tools sangat menguntungkan untuk produk lokal semacam Koprol, karena bisa mendatangkan pemakai Yahoo! yang jumlahnya sangat banyak, dan juga implementasinya sangat mudah. Dalam waktu kurang dari seminggu, Koprol telah implementasikan 3 API yang sangat berguna, yaitu:

• YAP / Homepage App: Koprol bisa tampil di halaman depan Yahoo!
• Fire Eagle: mengirim lokasi Koprol ke Fire Eagle dan aplikasi lain
• BB Auth: pengguna Yahoo! bisa daftar Koprol tanpa membuat password

Selain sebagai contoh kasus, Koprol juga terlibat dalam Open Hack Day sebagai juri. Chief Technology Officer kami, Daniel Armanto, menjadi salah satu dari 6 juri lokal dan internasional.

Mengenai Koprol

Koprol adalah jaringan sosial berbasis lokasi pertama di Indonesia. Bisa diakses melalui melalui mobile web, Koprol membantu pemakai ponsel berbagi foto, resensi tempat, dan melakukan diskusi dengan orang disekitarnya. Koprol juga bisa memberi saran tempat yang popular di sekitar, seperti restoran dan toko, berdasarkan penilaian orang.

Koprol telah dicoba sejak awal 2009 dan telah diterima baik di antara pers, komunitas teknologi, dan tentunya komunitasnya sendiri yang terus berkembang. Koprol bertujuan menjadi panduan kota yang sosial, dan menjadi ruang promosi untuk usaha lokal. Dalam waktu dekat, Koprol akan tersedia sebagai aplikasi mobile dan akan menawarkan promosi khusus dari usaha lokal.

Koprol diciptakan dan didanai sendiri oleh SkyEight, perusahaan pengembang software di daerah Barito, Jakarta Selatan.
