Apple keeps proving that people will pay for downloads
The iTunes store just keeps proving that people will pay for downloading digital goods that they could pretty easily get for free. Free even of the DRM encumbrance that Apple yokes all their goods down with. (Another quickie, the move’s going well, mostly unpacked and organized - just need more shelves and what not to [...]

iPhone tiny social apps review: PhotoSwap & nrme
There’s a lot of social apps on the iPhone all of them trying to secure their foothold in the mobile world. None of them really appealed to me, outside the mainstream sites like Twitter (Twittelator rocks) and Facebook (although I still prefer their iPhone site to the app). Two new ones just showed up yesterday [...]

iPhone SSH review: iSSH v. pTerm v. TouchTerm v. SSH
UPDATED Thu Sep 11 07:28:27 EDT 2008: Updated for TouchTerm 2.1 and iSSH 2.0 (which is held up by a glitch in the AppStore but should be there soon). Both are very strong updates. Also, planning a full revamp of this overly long in the tooth page.

iPhone App Review: Labyrinth v. Marble Mash v. aMaze!
UPDATED Wed Sep 3 08:59:26 EDT 2008: Just added in aMaze! to the review. Also Labyrinth has been updated to version 1.3 with a couple new features (sound, level pack management), nothing really changes in terms of this review, though.
Quick comparison of three navigate the marble through a maze of walls and holes games, [...]
Apple has a serious transparency problem.
Apple, king of the tight lip, is really pushing the boundaries these days. Awhile ago I posted why Google isn’t Microsoft. I posted why Apple is the new Microsoft, too. That was about how they want their whole system closed and all encompassing. This post is about how they don’t tell anyone anything.
Apple gets a [...]
iPhone App Review: Wordpress
Well, the Wordpress app hit yesterday like a ton of bricks. No shortage of folks were waiting for this bad boy, it seems. Not really surprising given how popular Wordpress is, as far as blogging goes, it’s arguably the best of the bunch. (Ok, a lot of people would argue that, but it’s what powers [...]
Of course the iPhone is a gaming platform and a computing one, too.
Ok, (sorry one more iPhone post then I’ll stop for a bit) Om wondered if the iPhone was the new gaming platform and Duncan knows it is. Of course it is! It was obvious as soon as they showed Super Monkey Ball and the rest of the games at the keynote. It’s got the big [...]
iPhone App Review: The Miscellanea
Ok, the last post (weep) in my iPhone App Review series. Kinda just a sweep all of the random other apps I’ve got installed. (You already read the others? Twitter Client, Movie Apps and Accelerometer Games? Don’t you think you ought to?)
AIM and Facebook
I downloaded AIM all excited and you know… it works. It’s nice [...]
iPhone Games Review: My Accelerometer Games
Ah, part III of my app reviews. Did you miss my Twitter client review and my movie app review? Golly, I hope not.
So I downloaded a few games, some free some not, was looking to see how the accelerometer worked on these bad boys. Generally speaking, it works awesome. I really like all of them.
Super [...]
