Random iPhone App of the week:Stinkdigital partnered with artist Miranda July, designer Thea Lorentzen and Prada to create Somebody, a location-aware social messaging service. When you send your friend a message through Somebody, it doesn't go directly to her, as you'd expect. No, it goes to the closest Somebody user nearby. This person then delivers the message verbally, acting as a stand-in. Does that take the sting out of breaking up with someone digitally, because technically, someone else is relaying your message? Probably not. Somebody might work best in community settings like colleges and workplaces, parties and concerts. Official Somebody hotspots to date include the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, The New Museum, Yerba Buena Center for The Arts, Portland Institute of Contemporary Art, Boston Museum of Fine Art, The Walker Art Center, and Museo Jumex. Museum-goers are invited to send and deliver messages in these spaces where they are likely to be around other users. Download the free app here.
