Hoarding! Why Can I Not Clean Up My iPhone?

Nosy Crow’s Three Little Pigs App Turns One and Celebrates with a Price Drop
It’s questionable whether the latest round of “enhanced eBooks” is really a Good Thing, or if they’re just like regular books, except with bells and whistles that you don’t really need. (I have a very different opinion of non-fiction offerings like the stuff from TouchPress, though.) But there are a few books out there–mostly children’s [...]

Grand Theft Auto 3 (iPhone/iPad) & Chinatown Wars (iPad) on iTunes for $.99 each!
I absolutely loved Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars HD on the iPad and really found it the best overall version of the game that I found more enjoyable than GTA 4. I was also pleasantly surprised at how well the classic GTA 3 translated to the iPad. If you haven’t gotten both of these games [...]

I was driving in the car and a tune came on that was awesome. It wasn’t familiar and I wanted to make sure I could hear it again so… at the stop sign of course, I pulled out my iPad, fired up SoundHound, and I searched for the song.
