The POOP THE WORLD Olympics have come to a close

admin — Sat, 06 Mar 2010 03:27:56 +0000

Well, the time has come to announce our esteemed medalists of the 2010 POOP THE WORLD Olympic games. These past two weeks were a real emotional roller coaster, filled with ups and downs by frequent flushers from across the globe.

But before our unveil, let me address an issue that had come to our attention during the games. The reset of our Global Leaderboard at the start of this event did not come without its controversy. We received a few letters from some solid poopers who had been wiped from the board after having worked very hard to stay ahead of the pack. We do apologize to those that were disappointed with the reset, and please note that from time to time, we will continue to reset the Leaderboard for other events held throughout the year; “The New York Shitty Marathon”, and the “24 Hour Global Shit Storm” to name a few. Please note that although the Global Leaderboard may change from time to time, your personal iPhone records within the app will continue to be tallied uninterrupted for your own sick and justified pleasure.

Now on to the good stuff! The winners of the 2010 POOP THE WORLD Olympic Games are (drum roll):

Congratulations once again, and if you are one of the top 3 listed above, please contact us on Twitter or Facebook to collect your prize!

Sincerely, Dan with POOP THE WORLD

POOP THE WORLD Twitter and Facebook Features Explained

admin — Tue, 15 Dec 2009 18:46:13 +0000

We’ve had a few questions from users who are wanting to link their poops to Twitter and Facebook. There’s an app for that, right?

If you’ve uploaded our most recent version and on the first run through decided not to input your username / passwords for Twitter and Facebook (don’t worry, we don’t keep nor care about these – you people are clearly sick with your love for poop and we want nothing to do with your personal lives.)

How To Turn On Auto-broadcast for Twitter and Facebook

- On your iPhone go to the app called Settings

- Scroll down to “Poop”

- After you input your Twitter details you will be able to automatically broadcast your poops to your Twitter followers. For Facebook, all you have to do is make sure that Auto-Login and Auto-Broadcast are selected and you’re good to go. Hit ‘Settings’ in the top left to save.

What Happens When I Auto-Broadcast My Poops?

Glad you asked. It’s pretty cool actually.

We have funny messages that will show up in your Twitter feed or Facebook status when you auto-broadcast. As soon as you hit “Flush & Post” to generate a poop, the poop type and fragrance data is captured and input into a message. Here’s an example:

Don’t These Get Stale After a While?

Heeeeeell no. We can update these puppies at will and what makes them cool is that we can target them in Twitter to trending topics so that not only are you sharing your funny poops with friends but the keywords as they relate to trending topics (Above example: #Christmas) allows your post to respected by others. We find this is a good way to get more followers. Try it!

SHARE POOP: How to send a poop directly to a particular person

If you are reading this and you are one of those reviewers who doesn’t take the time to check out apps before writing a review, this is where there seems to be a misconception so read carefully: POOP THE WORLD DOES NOT INVOLVE ANY IMAGES OF REAL POOP. That’s sick. Ours are funny little cartoon Ren & Stimpy-like poops. Cool?

Feel like randomly blasting a specific friend with your latest poop? On the Main Menu select SHARE POOP

Then you’ll see the details of the last poop you generated (as well as your stats). Select SEND POOP at the bottom:

Then select the type of message you want to send. In the case of selecting specific people select Email My Last Poop or Send to Facebook Friend.

That’s it! Told you it was cool.

iPhone App Mentioned on Curb Your Enthusiasm

admin — Tue, 17 Nov 2009 21:14:52 +0000

Were you sitting with bated breath, unable to believe that Jerry Seinfeld, Jason Alexander, and Larry David all at one point were talking about a “toilet related app” for the iPhone?

I definitely got my hopes up a little quick in thinking that there was a POOP THE WORLD reference about to unfold. As the Seinfeld reunion script goes, George made millions on one but then got burned by Bernie Madoff and lost all his money.

I’d like to know when George got into the app game as it seems a little diluted and without being biased, there is simply not a better poop app out there past PTW.

But speaking of app name dropping by celebrities, it makes me wonder why if some of the all-time pinnacles of entertainment and comedy on TV use this material in their shows, then why won’t Apple promote, oh I don’t know, that app POOP THE WORLD on any of their featured lists?

If I could suggest a few edits to Jerry and Larry on the script it would be:

- George and Jerry develop POOP THE WORLD and is convinced that geo-tagging of poops on real time Google maps, funny cartoon poop pics, and social networking integration with Facebook and Twitter is the wave of the future.

- Elaine, and Kramer all agree and chip in thousands of dollars make it happen.

- Upon releasing the app, Jerry’s humor is used to make unique promotional videos that help get the app national news coverage. He and George even invent an alter ego to help the cause.

- Apple does not promote the app on any of their featured lists and the gang starts to lose hope.

- Even George and Jerry’s parents don’t understand why their sons are investing in something about poop for a phone. They don’t get that its not about real poop but funny digital cartoon images. George’s father declares that his son has serious mental problems. Bans him from Festivus indefinitely.

– Then one day, after pitching a new pilot to NBC, George becomes disinterested and starts using the POOP THE WORLD app. The pitch goes poorly but an exec notices George geo-tagging a Baby Nessie with the fragrance of New Tennis Balls. Turns out the exec at NBC knows Ellen and Jimmy Fallon and feels that the app is brilliant.

- After being featured on their shows, the app becomes a cult classic for iPhone users. Questlove even lets George play the drums and Ellen dunks Jerry in the pool. Life couldn’t be happier.

– But instead of investing his money with Bernie Madoff, George and Jerry opt to purchase motorcycles and spend their days drinking Slurpee’s, playing golf and filming Mandeer episodes around the world.

- Apple still does not promote the app but all is forgiven after Kramer reboots Kramerica and purchases Apple with the proceeds from his cut of POOP THE WORLD.

iPhone BAT FIGHT in the China Market

admin — Mon, 09 Nov 2009 23:12:34 +0000

Apple’s iPhone has hit the Chinese market as of Oct 30. If you’re keeping an ear to the ground you may have heard that the iPhone isn’t exactly selling like hotcakes. 5000 hotcakes over its opening weekend to be exact. A far cry from the 1 million iPhones 3GS models that were sold in North America over its first 2 days. Why no love? A few reasons:

1) After currency conversions the iPhone works out to be $700 – $1000
2) No Wi-Fi = lame
3) There are a ton of phones us North American folk have never even heard of on the market in China for much less.
4) Someone can buy an “imported” (smuggled) iPhone in China for under $500. There’s over 2 million of those on the market already.
There is however one reason to think that the iPhone market in China will spike soon. A little app that we like to call POOP THE WORLD

Yes, this little fox can do all the tricks.

Helps you generate funny, cartoon poops. Over 400 types. Devil of a good time.

Allows you to earn trophies, send notifications of your “work” to your friends and followers via Twitter and Facebook. Oh, and did I mention, there’s a live map and a Global Poop Leaderboard that you can now view directly from your iPhone / iPod Touch?

You can’t beat that with a bat.

I concur. This is likely the coolest guy in the world.
