Description
** iTunes App Of The Week **
** App Store Rewind 2011, Travel **
Oink is an easy way to rate and rank the things around you. Instead of just rating places, you rate the items inside. You could easily find the most popular items on a menu and see if a friend has tried anything there. Then if there's something you like, it’s just a single press to rate it and share it with friends.
What you can do with Oink:
• Rate items around you and share with your followers
• See all the cool stuff your friends and other users are Oinking
• Find the best things in town (e.g. Best "Pizza" in Denver)
• Find the items at a place (e.g., Best roller coasters at Six Flags)
• Build "cred" in your areas of interest
• Share your Oink activity on Facebook, Twitter and Foursquare

Another leech to FB and Twittter
The folks at Milk tried to tie in a pseudo level system to cajole users into establishing all the content for Oink which they would surely harvest and resell. Decent interface, but the 5 star ratings are obviously investors who I bet are no longer Oinking.
Not seeing the value
This may have been one of the most hyped companies since FB. Here's their big reveal: oink. Besides it being too overbuilt out of the chutes (and therefore clunky/buggy/not
Intuitive), I'm having a hard time seeing the value here. Maybe it needs time or I do, but I don't think of oink first or second (or third) when I need to comment on a place, find a place or anything else. I'm rooting for this company, though - I just hope it can cross the hipster chasm....
slow, confusing, not useful
what is the point? search utility is incredibly weak. location services don't help you find anything. no seamless movement between features. difficult to find anything you are looking for. and to top it all off, the app is SLOW.
