I want a big iPhone too
The speculation about the upcoming product from Apple, presumably some form of tablet computer, is all over the place. The more I read the more I want. The more I want the more I wish. The more I wish the more I desire a big iPhone.
I’ve thought about it a lot over the last several [...]
Facebook URL Helper
The Facebook iPhone application now has an address book syncing feature that will pull in all of your friend’s profile pictures and also set up their Web site URLs as fb://somethingsomething. Chris Clark, in his infinite genius, put together a helper for your Macintosh that will redirect fb:// URLs to their proper http:// equivalent.
The L5 Remote
Speaking of cool remote controls – the L5 Remote is a combination iPhone/iPod touch application + accessory to turn said iPhone or iPod touch into a remote control for your television, DVR, Blu-ray player, and just about anything else accepting IR input.
Yes, please. But I’ll need a discount on two (one for my iPhone and [...]

Five best iPhone camera mods
Thanks to iSmashPhone for including my macro lens for the iPhone in their five best iPhone camera mods.
Waterproofing your iPhone
As reported by Danilo Campos on Twitter “Any ziplock bag you happen to find in your kitchen will waterproof your phone while allowing the screen to respond.” So I gave it a whirl and it works!
Neven Mrgan, who I heard this through, brought up a few great uses for this. He said “This means I [...]

Pie Guy, a free web game for iPhone
Pie Guy is a fun game for your iPhone that is free, is installed via the Web (it is a fancy Web page), works offline, and is actually a lot of fun (works sorta like Pac-Man).
Neven Mrgan, the developer of Pie Guy, built the game – not only so people can enjoy the game – [...]

A new theme for iPhone, more mobile devices to follow
Last weekend I rolled out an updated theme for this site when your browsing it with an iPhone. The main reason for this is my mobile photos. When I post a mobile photo my site automatically Twitter’s a link to it, like this, and a lot of people flood in to view the photos and [...]

Dude at NASA makes a Tricorder with an iPhone
NASA scientist Jing Li (and others) has created a tricorder, ala Star Trek, using an iPhone and a few little gadget bits that is able to ’sense’ gases in the air. My advice: get this tricorder things to the point where it can repair broken bones and inject medicine into a human’s neck, then move [...]
Why I bought Tweetie 2 for iPhone
I don’t buy a lot of iPhone applications. My reasons are that I don’t have a lot of extra money for such things and that many times I end up getting rid of an application a few weeks after installing it.
In other words; why buy applications that I will not end up using long term?
However, [...]
Giving Instapaper a whirl
Instapaper, a read-later service by Tumblr’s Marco Arment, has been popping up in front of me for months. I’ve seen two of my friends, Justin and Jonathan, rave about it. So I thought it was time I gave it a spin.
This morning I’ve installed the bookmarklet from the site, installed the free version of the [...]

The official Flickr iPhone application. Stick with the mobile site.
Flickr recently released an official application for the iPhone (link opens iTunes). I agree with John Gruber, the design of the application is well done in many areas but it doesn’t feel very “Flickr-like” and isn’t as good as Flickr’s mobile site for the iPhone. My biggest gripe, besides the application crashing every few minutes, [...]
EDGE, an iPhone game I want to buy
The first iPhone game I’ve wanted to buy this badly since Rolando 1.0, Edge. I’ll be picking this up in the near future.
Facebook for iPhone 3.0 coming soon
When the Web-based version of the Facebook iPhone application shipped it was great. When the first version of the native Facebook iPhone application shipped it was great. Even though I think it is a bit overdue, when the next version of the Facebook iPhone application ships, it will more than likely be great too.
What you get and don’t get with the iPhone OS 3.0 update if you have an original iPhone
Eliza and I have original iPhones. Day one iPhones. They are just shy of 2 years old. They’re still gorgeous, still work well, and we couldn’t be happier with them.
Today Apple released the third version of their iPhone OS aptly named iPhone OS 3.0. This release boasts several improvements and new features – however, not [...]

Mobile Facebook wishes…
I have a few simple wishes for Facebook’s mobile offerings. I access Facebook on-the-go using my iPhone – though I believe that these wishes will help more than just iPhone users.

One of the very first web apps for the iPhone and one that Apple has promoted during it’s Keynote addresses – Facebook had a good [...]
