Twitterrific



Twitterrific is a third party Twitter client that is very easy to use! You can have a more than one Twitter account saved on this app; this is a feature that most Twittter apps do not have. This feature is important for those who have a personal Twitter and one for work. There is not much to write about this third party Twitter app accept the fact that it is very easy to use and is one of the best Twitter clients out there! The Iconfactory also has a Premium version of Twitterrific and an app called Frenzic. Thanks for your work on this app The Iconfactory!

Pocket God



Pocket God is an app created by Bolt Creative. Their company name describes this game, "Creative." In this game you have your own island with six little islanders called "Pygmys." You basically decide what happens to the little Pygmys. You can pick them up and throw them around; if you get three Pygmys in the volcano then it erupts and shoots lava on the rest of them on the island, which is very amusing! This app is updated very often and each update is called an "episode." There have been 19 episodes so far, and the latest is called "Fun 'n Games Until a Pygmy Gets Hurt." Now keep in mind that the episode names are hints to the new features of the episode. This game is very fun and entertaining, but it is rated 9+ because of cartoon violence. There are so many different things that you can do to the Pygmys, but the newest features are mini games such as, the most shark snaps, most coconut bounces on their heads, and most lightning sticks in a hurricane. I suggest that you buy this app in the App Store, it is only $0.99 and worth the money! This game is Feint enabled, so in other words you can chat with other people who are playing the game and either talk about the game or chat with people using Feint on a different app. I don't have enough time to tell you about all the features on this app so go check it and see for yourself just how fun this little game is! Great job Bolt Creative!

iTunes 3.0



The new and improved iTunes is now out along with the iPhone/ iTouch 3.0 Software update! It is what many people have been waiting for for a long time. In the new update of the iTunes App you can now download videos (movies, and TV Shows) straight from your iPhone or iTouch 2nd Generation. This is a great feature because I have not gotten vary many shows, because that would mean that I would have to get on my computer and download it, but no I don't have too. I will be using this new feature a lot and will be going broke because of the insane amount of videos that will be on my iTouch soon. Good job Apple you are smart for making this new feature! Don't forget that the new iPhone 3G S comes out Friday the 19! Good luck to all of you who are making the switch to the new iPhone, because I know that I will not be making that switch because I don't even have AT&T. Have fun everyone!

The Creeps!



The creep is an addictive "Tower defense" game where the object is to stop the monsters that are coming through a door with a portal in it from reaching a bed where a little kid is hiding. This game models the idea of monsters living in children's closets. This game is very fun but hard, well at least it is for me. The graphics are kind of childish but that is what makes it fun and amusing! The monsters are very creative, it's like a child designed the monsters and told the developer what they should look like, because they resemble something out of a child's imagination. Well as for me I love this game and I recommend this game for everyone out there who still is a child inside and who just love creative iPhone games. Keep up the good work Super Squawk Software!

Pong - iPhone Edition



There has been a lot of talk around iPhone based Social Networks about a "Seventh Grade Wiz Kid". I had no idea who they were talking about until I searched him on Twitter, and I got the whole story. Jonah Grant, a seventh grade wiz kid has developed his own iPhone App, but he had help with the icon and UI from Misecia, an icon designer!
I decided to buy the app to see what all the fuss was about and to my surprise it was a very good game. His game, Pong - The iPhone edition, is basically a reinvention of the widely popular video game. When you first play the game you most likely won't be impressed, but keep in mind that a SEVENTH GRADER made this app, but still the simplicity of this old school style app is nice. It does the same things as the original Pong, but not for long because Jonah has told me that some special features are coming soon, such as Feint enabled chat rooms, Bluetooth Peer-to-Peer networking (wireless 2 Player) and a few more things. You can Follow them both on Twitter at, http://twitter.com/jonahman2003 and http://twitter.com/misecia. Here are there web pages as well, http://www.grantjonah.tumblr.com/ and http://www.misecia.tumblr.com/. So to sum it up, this app is very simple and fun! Keep up the good work Jonah!

Lady Gaga Revenge



I Recently got the new Lady Gaga Revenge iPhone/ iPod touch App from Tapulous and I LOVE IT! It is so much cooler than most of the Apps in the App Store! I love the new unlockable songs that are in landscape mode! It adds a challenge to the game and it forces you to play all of the songs and it also promotes the songs more. I also like the fact that there are 14 different songs (including remixes). Good job in making this App Tapulous, it was a wise move on your part! I hope it becomes one of the Top 5 apps in the App Store soon!
