Discovr Unveils People Finder App, Helps You Surface Interesting People On Twitter

Discovr, the company behind what's still one of my all-time favorite mobile app discovery tools, Discovr Apps, is out today with a new application for finding people. Not surprisingly, it's called Discovr People. The startup, which also has apps in the Music and Movies verticals, is not trying to compete with the trendy "ambient location"/people-stalking apps hitting the scene as of late (like Highlight, Sonar, Glancee, Banjo, etc.), but instead is providing more of a Twitter-based people finder, not unlike the Berlin-based Flockofbirds app. When you first launch Discovr People (iOS only for now), the app asks you if it can access your Twitter accounts. Say yes, and you're off. [Note to app developers: this is how social integrations should be done on iOS - stop asking for my Twitter username and password already.]
