11870.com and Centrl

by irenet - July 3, 2009

This week we spoke with Murat Aktihanoglu, founder and CEO of New York based service Centrl. The reason: Centrl now includes 11870.com places and services as a layer.

With a couple of clicks (or taps) Centrl users can access 11870.com content through their phones. Murat explains how: “As you move around the world, the 11870.com layer always shows the nearest reviews from 11870.com. You can even do a keyword search. Centrl shows you a summary of the review on the map and if you click on Details,  you are taken to the 11870.com website”.

Apart from finding cool places recommended by 11870.com inhabitants, Centrl lets you login and message friends from social networks like Facebook, MySpace or Orkut without the need to create an account.  It works on iPhone, Android and Blackberry. As Murat puts it, Centrl is “a way to keep in touch with friends, save money with nearby coupons and discover new restaurants, bars, events, etc, through layers”.
