Tampa Twenty Year Old Tops IPhone Charts

Tampa, FL - Deep in the oceans depth the shark hunts, swimming, searching, seeking. A person slides their finger into the water and… It Attacks. The water vibrates, blood explodes, and then it's over. Welcome the the world of Finger Shark.

A software development company is currently topping charts with their Finger Shark application for the iPhone. Written by Ercan Hocalar, a twenty year old from Tampa, FL, this app was the #1 free app and maintained the #1 in the entertainment section of iTunes for several days.
The free app, which also includes a cave-escape gaming sequence, was downloaded over 150,000 times a day over the weekend and over 1 million downloads overall. It gives the illusion that a 3d shark is protecting your phone from unauthorized users.

Ercan attended Full Sail University. With over two hundred and fifty apps available in the app store, the programmers share in the profits of what they create.
