"Corkulous is a slight departure from our other productivity apps because it’s very visually oriented," tells Calvin Gaisford, President and Co-founder, Appigo, Inc. "The iPad is an incredible device that merges the virtual and physical world and Corkulous harnesses this concept by making your ideas completely tangible."

Corkulous follows the metaphor of a cork board where users can arrange notes, labels, tasks, contacts, and photos to visualize ideas. Related ideas can be easily placed together and aligned using automatic guides which help to snap items into place. Also supported in the app are multiple boards. As ideas grow, users can create new boards and group related ideas in separate virtual spaces. Suggested uses of Corkulous include the following:

* Brainstorming Tool
* Simple Mind Map
* Project/Event/Vacation Planner
* Reminder/Message Board
* Simple To-do List
* Vision Board
* Goal Tracker
* Exam Study Aid
* … etc.

Today Corkulous fits very well in the personal productivity space. Over the next few months, Appigo plans to introduce features making app much more collaborative. Additional board items will be added for more expressive freedom. Users that have purchased the app will receive new features free as part of the standard updates.
