SweetLabs Inc. today announced that Pokki, the app platform for the PC, has surpassed 1 million monthly active users. Additionally, Pokki is coming out of beta with a major product update, introducing a new apps menu for centralized organization, launch, and discovery of Pokki apps, a notification center for the latest updates from your favorite apps and games, and new apps including Angry Birds, Pandora, and Pinterest.
The Pokki user base has doubled every month for the past six months and we’re proud that we now have a million monthly active users who agree that a PC can be just as fun and convenient as a smartphone or tablet, said Darrius Thompson, co-founder and CEO at SweetLabs. Microsoft, with Windows 8, seems to believe that forcing users to adopt a touch interface will modernize the PC experience but we beg to differ. This major milestone and release proves that the 1.3 billion PC users can enjoy a modern app experience, naturally built for the device they spend the majority of their waking hours on, with their trusty keyboard and mouse. Your PC doesnt have to suck.
Pokki enables PC users to have one-click access to their favorite apps like Facebook, Gmail, Instagram (Instagrille), and Twitter (Tweeki), with real-time notifications on the desktop. Hundreds of free apps and games are available for download in the Pokki app store today. The Pokki platform makes it easier than ever for developers to create and distribute desktop apps using standard web languages like HTML5, with early developers seeing 3-5X increases in engagement and retention from Pokki desktop apps when compared to traditional websites trapped in the browser.
With the product update today, users will have access to more convenient notifications for their favorite apps, in a centralized notification center as well as through app-specific notification banners and badges. The new apps menu will make it easy for users to manage and organize their Pokki apps as well as discover and download new Pokki apps with one click. Additionally, new apps like Angry Birds, Pandora, and Pinterest are now available in the store, and were built using a new app packaging technology that Pokki will be providing to developers soon, making it easier than ever to turn a web app or game into a Pokki desktop app.
Pokki and Pokki apps are available for free download at Pokki.com, and compatible with Windows 8, 7, Vista, XP with Mac support coming soon.

I’ve been playing video computer games since roughly 1983. I go back to Pong as well as Pac Man and also L. A. Swat for the C-64. I haven’t discovered an activity that’s more insidious, a great deal more devious, or more enjoyable than this particular online game where you throw shot birds into green, diseased- and demented-looking pigs in order to keep them from taking and eating your eggs.
This online game is written and published by a company named Rovio. Rovio is a mobile games publisher launched in the year 2003. Angry Birds, released in 2010, has now gotten to the stage where it’s been downloaded over 30,000,000 times and, according to an article posted on CNN’s web site, will soon be making over US $ 1M every month off of simply advertisement revenue on the Android platform. This doesn’t count anything it gets from its sales of plush Angry Birds from its web page or any cash generated from Apple’s various products. If this doesn’t convince you of exactly how sizzling the overall game is, well, I’m not sure that anything at all will.
This online game itself starts innocently enough: You have a 2-3 red birds who look quite angry due to the fact a group of green pigs has just ripped off your eggs. They’ve set up in a protective position and your job will be to launch your birds from a pre-built catapult directly into the pigs’ structure and kill every one of the pigs. The red birds themselves do not have unique powers, and that means you just aim, launch, and hope. As you advance through level after level, you discover new birds with assorted capabilities as well as new different types of pigs (I love the Adolf Hitler pig!). The difficulty of each and every level slowly and gradually heightens until finally you look up and recognise you’ve been on the same blasted level for eighty seven minutes and your family members can’t determine the reason why your face looks just like you’re having a heart attack!
