iPhone App Review: Pocket Cocktails

So, I can kind of blame the wonderful developers of Pocket Cocktails for the hangover I had the day after my birthday. You see, Pocket Cocktails is an absolutely gorgeous drink recipe app for the iPhone.  The interface is fun and retro, which is a big plus for me…but the real beauty lies in the recipes themselves.  Each one features a painstakingly photographed drink to go along with the recipe, presumably so you know how the drink is supposed to …

iPhone App Review: Trism

The first game I bought for my iPhone was Demiforce’s tour de force puzzle game, Trism.  It looked like an amazing combo of Hexic (a favorite on the XBox) and Tetris, and I’m a puzzle game addict.  After only a few games, I was hooked.  Trism is absolutely awesome.  I just got my highest score tonight of almost 7 million points–I was pretty disappointed to learn that if I want to beat the highest score, I’m looking at besting someone …

All I want for Christmas (or my birthday) is Pocket Informant…

One of the apps I’ve been waiting for (not so patiently) is Pocket Informant for iPhone.  I’m a long-time PI fan from my days of using it on Windows Mobile, and I absolutely cannot wait to have it on my iPhone.  The problem is, I’m incredibly impatient. I’m not a huge fan of the built-in iPhone calendar–it is functional, and I have it syncing with my Google Calendar via NuevaSync, but otherwise it’s nothing to write home about.  I’m used …

Copy and paste on the iPhone with pastebud

A long-standing complaint from the iPhone community at large has been the lack of copy and paste functionality.  This isn’t something I run into needing too often, but I agree that it’s a super basic feature that should have been there from the start. There have been a few attempts at a proof of concept so far; the popular Notes replacement app MagicPad features copying and pasting between notes, but not between MagicPad and any other app on the iPhone.  …

iPhone App Review: Stanza

Ever since I got my first PDA, I have been a big fan of eBooks.  I apparently have some kind of deep-seated fear about being stuck somewhere and bored to tears, and having a small library in my pocket goes a long way towards making me feel prepared for just about anything. So, when I was planning my switch over to the iPhone, one of the first things I was concerned about was the availability of a good eBook reader.  …

iPhone App Review: Tweetie

I am an avid Twitter user, so one of the first apps I downloaded onto my iPhone was Twitteriffic.  It’s a great program, but 9.99 for the Pro version seemed a little high.  It also didn’t allow me to search, follow people (or unfollow them!) from the application, track trends, or load more than a certain number of tweets in my timeline. After that I tried Twittelator, Twinkle and TwitterFon, but none of them really did what I wanted them …
