One of my favourite little applications is DigiGuide. By application I actually mean an old style .exe. DigiGuide was a piece of software I downloaded years ago, pay for and use every day. It’s an electronic TV listings guide for the UK. Sure, it lets me sort channels and show them in a display format […]
Zombigotchi: Cute zombie pet for iPhone/iPad
It seems that there might be some unlife in the virtual pet craze yet. Fed up of cute kittens and baby dragons that cost you gold coins rather than earn them? Why not consider your very own cute pet zombe that you can pet, train, feed and call George? Well. Actually, I’m not sure about […]
Dancing Mind Control ad for the Samsung Galaxy S
Samsung really seem to be throwing everything at promoting their Android phone – the Galaxy S. I don’t blame them, it’s not just that the iPhone is still a roaring success but that firms like HTC are taking full advantage of the market turmoil. This video (called ‘Cute Girl Has A Catchy Dance’) is clearly […]
Freeland Studio wows us with the steampunk iPhone
This shows you the power of Etsy. Freeland Studios are clearly a talented bunch. However, their website is large in flash and may have only been seen by a few people until their success with this steampunk iPhone holder. Their iRetrofone Steampunk device, on sale at Etsy for $450, has the attention of the bloggers. […]
Free (for two weeks) and fun: the AR RPG for iPhone
Hudson Soft has, I think, come up with a fun RPG for the iPhone. It uses location technology and the camera as the basis for the game. As you explore the real world you discover some of the 600 plus monsters in the RPG game world. I see straight away how that works and why […]
Barclays Spinning Streak iPod and iPhone game
I’m quite fond of some of the Barclays adverts on TV right now. In particular, I liked the spot the difference game that results in the giant dinosaur going unnoticed as it winks at you – and disappointed that the alternative version seems to be being aired more often. One of the adverts shows a […]
Fork phone – cutlery for your iPhone
Someone at a more popular blog than this one (erm, which doesn’t narrow it down much at all! ;)) suggested this might be the cutest cutlery based iPhone holder you’re every likely to see. I think they might be right! The best part is that it’s dead cheap (well, it’s currently dead cheap) and you […]
Graphic.ly’s CEO, Micah Baldwin, talks about the awesome application
What a whirlwind! At the start of the week, Geek Native had news of Graphic.ly’s $1m funding and supersizing waiting list of comic fans. Just yesterday Mashable then had news that Microsoft’s Steve Ballmer, yes – that Steve Ballmer, had raved about how awesome Graphic.ly was on stage at CES 2010. Yes – that CES […]
Cool: Fighting Fantasy’s The Warlock of Firetop Mountain comes to the iPhone
It’s true. A company called Big Blue Bubble is to thank – and credit for having a groovy name too! If you want to stop reading and start playing then the link to the UK app store is here. The game works as you’d expect. Tap the pages to flip the pages. Shake the iPhone […]
AD: The Sun versus the iPhone – round 2
Following on from the now famous Sun ad that poked fun at the iPhone (which you would have seen on Geek Native before it became mainstream) there’s a second “There’s a page for that” viral ad. Need to send someone a kidnapping letter? The Sun’s got font for that.
