As they promised back in July of last year, ABSOLUT is bringing its Drinkspiration application to the Android platform. As you may know from our description of the iPhone version, Drinkspiration is a complex application that includes several elements, including:
- Interactive encyclopedia of recipes – which helps users find a perfect drink based on multiple criteria such as taste, weather, time of day, bar vibe, sound volume, real-time drink trends and more.
- Social networking integration – allowing users to share their favorite cocktails with their buddies and/or followers on Facebook and Twitter. Add GPS to the mix, and you get automatically generated status updates like “Stefan Constantinescu is having a screwdriver in Helsinki, Finland.”
- Integration with absolutdrinks.com – where ABSOLUT fans meet, and from where they can download interactive badges to place on their blogs or websites.
All these elements make Drinkspiration suitable for both end users and bartenders, who may like to know what people, are drinking at any given moment. It remains the free application and you can grab it from the Android Market.

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.
