Ochocinco on iPhone: Twitter's Loudest NFL Star Launches App

Cincinnati Bengals Wide Receiver Chad Ochocinco has been all about social media: flying out random Twitter users to games and compared losing Twitter and Ustream to losing his johnson. But now 85 has gone mobile.

The Ochocinco Experience (iTunes Link) is the official iPhone app of the talkative NFL player. He proudly boasts that he is the "1st athlete with an iPhone app" (we can't confirm this).

So what does it do? Most of its features are to be expected - it provides exclusive video and photos of Chad, allows you to upload tailgating pictures, includes Ocho's Twitter timeline, and his stats for the current NFL season. And all you have to pay to become an Ochocinco devotee is $4.99.

Yes, Chad's effectively leveraged social media. Yes, Chad and his Bengals are actually having a decent season. That doesn't mean we (or his fanbase) are going to put down $5 to experience him on-the-go. There is such a thing as too much Ocho Cinco.
