Ask the Octopus
Get your Paul the Octopus iPhone App (unofficial) and you will have predictions in the palm of your hand – so to speak.
It was just a matter of time before someone jumped on the very popular bandwagon of Paul the Psychic Octopus who made a string of winning predictions in the recent 2010 World Cup. Besides the vuvuzela, I think Paul the Octopus became one the the icons of this tournament.
According to Mashable, the German Octopus is back in the form of an iOS app that makes predictions about anything you want it to, not just football.
The uTouchLabs-developed app is called “” [iTunes link] and it’s available in the App Store for the iPhone , iPod touch and iPad (though it doesn’t have a special iPad version).
Ask the Octopus
Before you rush off to install this Paul the Octopus iPhone app, called Ask the Octopus, I just want to warn you that is is just a game, you are not going to get Lotto numbers or pick a winner on the sixth race. But it is fun to play with and, hey it’s quite a talking point.
A good recipe for World Cup withdrawal: install the Ask the Octopus iPhone App and the Vuvuzela iPhone App and you’ll get that 2010 World Cup feeling all over again.
After all Vuvuzela was the WORD for the 2010 World Cup.
