Awesome update! (5 stars)
Had the older version but this new version rocks! Easy hands free sightseeing with Facebook posting capability??!!....um, yes please! Now I can hear about what's around me and clue my friends in on some hot spots to visit. Also, totally dig the new map, and the publisher controls...keep up the great work!

The review ( just trying it out) (5 stars)
Refreshing to have a sound-related app not centered on music. Lots of other audio content out there (I'm a storyteller).

Great app and great content (5 stars)
Great app with a very powerful platform. It will only get better as more people add content.
