The 50 billionth app downloaded on iOS (I wonder how they keep track) was downloaded by Brandon Ashmore of Mentor, Ohio. He’ll be walking away with a $10,000 itunes giftcard for his troubles (not shabby). Ashmore downloaded “Say the Same Thing”, a word game created by internet-famous band, OKGO (Remember the guys who did the music video on treadmills). They happen to have made two of my favorite videos on Youtube, so to celebrate Brandon’s win, I’ve posted them below. Enjoy. More details on the contest.
