Nokia Crowdsources Ideas for Mobile Apps

Nokia has launched a worldwide brainstorming campaign to tap into new ideas for developing future apps for mobiles.

Mobile apps are changing the world. Today we cannot imagine a world without the various mobile apps that make life easier by providing useful information right at our fingertips. Yet there is still plenty of potential for more mobile apps that can take the world by storm.

Nokia has launched the Ideasproject and is seeking inspiration from crowdsourcers for potential mobile apps. Nokia’s challenge for the “Apps That Change the World” is seeking suggestions on applications that can help make a positive difference to the world.

Anyone can put forward their ideas at this site which will be picked up by Nokia, depending on its feasibility and practicality. You can also choose to vote on ideas that have already been submitted by online crowdsourcers, raising the demand for a particular mobile app. Nokia will use the best ideas and produce a free mobile application that it will distribute via Ovi Store.

Currently ideas are circulating in the categories of People, Business, Technology, Entertainment and Others.

So, if you have been waiting for a particular idea to hit the apps market, it is time to make it happen by letting Nokia in on your brainchild. This unique customer centric philosophy is sure to give birth to new ideas and inspirations as more and more brains come together to state their needs and uses.

While you may think that your idea is far fetched and not feasible or does not meet any of the challenges posed by Nokia, you can still share your thought with others. At Ideas-project, the ideas will remain open, so that it can be carried through when the technology and the market has developed well enough to accommodate the new apps’ design.
