Classifieds & Social Media brought together on Smartphones

Mill Valley, California — After an encouraging response to the first version, Thirsty Pocket Labs announces the release of Thirsty Pocket 2.0. Right from their phones, users can post items for sale into the exciting, new marketplace and have exposure to the latest social media services.

Reviewers and application critics call Thirsty Pocket “An almost embarrassingly simple way to sell items.” Thirsty Pocket is taking the selling experience to the next level while still retaining the innovative selling and shopping solution to eliminate the complexities and lengthy time required to post and purchase items on other on-line sites such as eBay and Craigslist. Smartphone users no longer need these cumbersome sites. Thirsty Pocket provides pain-free posting and a fun shopping experience.

Most people trying to sell their items typically like to offer it to their friends and family first and then move on to the open marketplace. Keeping that in mind, the free version of Thirsty Pocket 2.0 brings in the following services:

Facebook Connect:
Login and publish your items to your Facebook page.

Twitter:
Items you post for sale will appear on the OnthirstyPocket Twitter feed.

Oodle:
The marketplace that powers classifieds on My Space, Facebook, and AOL attracting 4 million visitors monthly. Thirsty Pocket items will feed into Oodle.

Thirsty Pocket Website:
Share the link of your items to non-iPhone users on the web.

No account setup is required and there are no fees. Buyers see what is for sale in their current location or anywhere in the US. It’s fun to flick through pictures looking for cool items for sale or to discover that great deal. Download Thirsty pocket from the Apple iTunes store for free.
