Zagat Survey keeps working on its mobile offering. They already license their content to other services (Buzzd, for example) and have their own mobile website. Now along with Handmark, they are launching their own iPhone app – ZAGAT TO GO ’09.
The new application gives users access to Zagat’s trusted ratings and reviews for over 40,000 restaurants, hotels, nightspots and shops in over 100 countries. In addition, there are photos, menus, Google maps, click to call capabilities and functionality that allows users to make instant restaurant reservations.
Commenting on the announcement, Zagat Survey’s CEO, Tim Zagat, said: “Just in time for holiday travel, ZAGAT TO GO ’09 for iPhone gives consumers accurate, useful information wherever they may be. Our photos and maps look especially sleek on the iPhone, which is this year’s most coveted accessory.”
ZAGAT TO GO ’09 is immediately available through the Apple AppStore for $9.99.

Dusan has been using smartphones since their introduction and is now following the latest trends in the industry. The "convergence" is what he's most excited about, and writing about it is the next logical thing to do. He thinks that using a smartphone is what everyone who cares about their time should do. In addition to his interests in mobile phones, Dusan also loves to experiment with the latest web and mobile 2.0 services. The idea of accessing and managing your information from any device no matter where you are simply amazes him. Whether it's an online to-do list, note taking service or a video sharing social network, he's there to try it out. He admits though, he's still searching for the ultimate web-based organizational tool, which "sings" perfectly with the mobile PIM application. Dusan used to run SymbianWatch.com which later became part of IntoMobile. He lives in Serbia, South-East Europe, from where he edits the site on a daily basis.
