Michael Quach, the super-spammer of the Android Market, has returned with yet another addition to his bizarre catalogue of spam apps – in the form of Girl Facts. It is basically a list of very obvious social references covered in his advertising, and the best advert for Apple’s aggressive app filtering system.
Here’s Quach’s description:
“Tons of facts & secrets about girls you’ve always wanted to know…are here! This cool app will tell you about all the interesting, weird, odd, fun, mysterious, charming, intriguing & exciting things about girls.
“Bet you don’t know many things about your girl! You can also SMS / Email these girl facts!”
And here it is, in standard text-on-an-image style:
It shouldn’t be allowed. It makes us ANGRY on many levels, not least the staggering lack of creativity on display. It’s like his only frame of cultural reference is the TV series ‘Friends’.
Motorola’s latest flagship dual-core Android monster is a massive, original powerhouse, that’s a big improvement on previous MOTOBLUR mobiles – but still isn’t a total winner.
A slim and glamorous phone from Sony Ericsson, with the sharpest display around. It’s no powerhouse and the screen’s not the biggest out there, but we don’t mind. Because it’s cute.
LG’s first glasses-free 3D phone is a heavy, fat monster, with a clever 3D effect that works rather well. As a smartphone, though, it’s heavy and underwhelming.
A very shiny thing from Sony Ericsson, with a 3.7″ screen and Android 2.3.3 inside. But is it exciting enough to win fans in today’s spec-obsessed market? Can man live on one core alone?
INQ’s Android phone is an interesting “boutique” piece of hardware, packed with unique interface customisations that go far beyond the headline Facebook integration. We like it a lot.

/ June 21, 2010More like Sex in the City. Shit wrapped in glitter and then regurgitated and rewrapped in bad grammar.
He probably did not even think this himself, but just cut and pasted from those countless supposedly hilarious and wise ppt files that circulate through email and clutter our inboxes, only now people have to be not only stupid enough to find it funny, but to pay for it too.

/ June 21, 2010I agree that Michael Quachs apps are crap, but did you know there are at least two developers that are worse than Michael Quach?
* Pretty Drawer (formerly Pretty Online)
* jackyli
These two developers don’t even bother changing their apps, like Michael Quach does. Instead, they make ONE app, and release it hundreds of times under different names… THE SAME EXACT APP released using different names.
Now, I don’t like Michael Quach, but those two developers are EVIL.

/ June 22, 2010Maybe let’s just start flagging those crappy apps in the market? Maybe we can draw Google’s attention to this problem at least a little…
