My Offline App Store.

Openspace

Colorado based Openspace may just be the first offline app store in the world. With more than a million apps available on their website, Openspace aims to help users avoid having to search for apps randomly, but rather focusing on their curated collections by friends, celebrities and by interest. By opening a bricks-and-mortar store, "app gurus" can help shoppers by offering suggestions and advice, and allowing them to interact with the apps right on the spot. Developers can even make personal appearances in store to help promote their new apps as well.

In this "all online" world, it's interesting to see how some people are bringing an offline twist to the experience. With app shopping, the offline approach could work very well, especially by allowing the "try before you buy" aspect to the experience. Who hasn't had the app-buyers remorse?

So we have to ask ourselves, what online experience can we bring into the offline world?
