Pickin’ Time, a fast, fun game for your iPhone

Recently the IconFactory guys, the same guys that brought you Twitterrific for the Mac and iPhone, Frenzic (another great game), RampChamp (another great game), and many other well-made things, found a bug in iTunes that potentially cost them loads of dough.

To help out, here is a link to their new game for the iPhone – Pickin’ Time.

Problems with Twitterrific 2 caused by the Twitpocalypse

Last night while at a bar with a friend I started getting weird errors in Twitterrific 2. I was taking down notes, saving screenshots, all because I wanted to provide a good bug report to The Iconfactory when I had the chance. This morning I quickly checked their site and read this:

“We apologize for problems that iPhone and iPod touch Twitterrific users are currently experiencing due to the so-called Twitpocalypse.”

Ugh. Well, that saved me the time of writing up a bug report. But now I know it will be a little while before I can use my favorite Twitter application on the iPhone.

Update: At some point on Sunday evening an update to Twitterrific 2 for the iPhone and iPod touch had been approved through the App Store and is available through normal app updating methods. Seems to work peachy now.

Indiana Jones desktop and icons

The crew over at the Iconfactory, who are the creators of Twitterrific among many other things, are doing a tribute to Indiana Jones this month. Â Here is a snap of my desktop, which I took using Skitch, to see the icons and one of their desktops in action:

You too can sport such Indy awesomeness by downloading

I’m looking forward to the next three icon set installments for The Temple of Doom, The Last Crusade, and the new The Kingdom of the Crystal Skull. Â I would have liked to see a desktop image or two for each of these movies included in the icon download.
