Thinning crowds at the gym paired with advertising pushes from Weight Watchers can only mean one thing: well-intentioned New Year’s resolutions are rapidly falling by the wayside. Whether you’ve been led astray by an impending sense of doom due to Mayan-calendar conspiracies or simply haven’t had the time to follow through, there’s lots of opportunity [...]
There have been a few good scanning applications available for Windows Phone almost since launch, but I was missing the ability to fax from my phone. Something I have been able to do since my early PocketPC days. A few days ago we were reorganizing our office and they decided to relocate the fax machine. [...]
Mehdoh, disputably the best Twitter app for Windows Phone has been on a rocky road the past five weeks and officially disappeared from Marketplace a few days ago. There were a few reasons for all this, but basically it came down to nearly zero return on investment. It’s amazing that such a good app has [...]
Here is one from Social Ebola, the Urban Dictionary guys, that slipped past me in the Marketplace. With our minds becoming more cluttered every day with information, it’s no wonder we all occasionally forget something. Sure, I have a great tasks app that includes a reminder feature, but it takes several taps to load up [...]
If you cannot be in New York for New Year’s Eve then you can always watch the Ball drop on TV, or you can check out this new app available on the iPhone or Android that will allow you to keep up with the Ball and be able to upload pictures to possibly display on [...]
Om Nom fans will have plenty to cheer about with a new update from Zeptolab’s Cut the Rope game. Version 1.6, the Buzz Box update features some new levels as well as rope moving Bees. This new update is available for not only for iPhone and iPad, but Android Marketplace as well as Amazon Market [...]
I for one need to shed some pounds but like many, lack motivation to get going. Perhaps blogging while on the tread mill will become a more viable solution as I get better with Siri and dictate an article to my iPhone 4S! So maybe a cool new gadget will help get you off the [...]
Congratulations to developer Scott Peterson, as the i’m a wp7 app passed the 100,000 user mark sometime this morning. I know that for iPhone and Android users, news like this is meh, but for us WP folks, this is one more indicator that the platform is moving forward. Seeing that the built-in Facebook apps reached [...]
Figuring that tomorrow is National 4S Day, decided to squeeze this one in tonight. It’s not that difficult to create custom ringtones for your Windows Phone, but for those lacking the skills, software or DRM free music there is easyRing. The app provides access to millions of song snippets (those 30 second previews) via Amazon.com [...]
Last November, just two days after the launch of Windows Phone, I offered a $50.00 bounty to the first developer who could provide a Task application with some basic functionality, along with three “no compromise” requirements: Reminder Alert – Day/Time Recurrence Function Live Tile w/ # Due & # Past Due (in red), like Tasks [...]
