» My Top 10 iPhone Apps

A post like this is almost a necessity for bloggers right now and why should I be any less. Actually though a lot of people are asking me which apps I use a lot and which ones I do really like. Considering that I have four (soon five) pages of apps the narrowing down must be done to the very importants. Oh, and I decided not to include the App Store even though I love browsing it on the iPhone itself Nor have I included any default apps in here that I still use all the time and are in my dock. The list is not in any top order at all, they are equal.

Twitterific
I just like Twitterific. I use the desktop version of it and it’s just my favorite way of updating to Twitter. I did write a review of the app here in the iPhone center I put up a while ago.

NetNewsWire
Again, I’m using NetNewsWire on my computer and I do really like the program and naturally the free NetNewsWire iPhone app is a good one for me because I can sync which feeds I want to access on the go from my full list. I find it works really well for most things but there are things I’d like to see, like flagging on the phone and sync those back up to the computer. Again, I wrote a review of the app in the iPhone Center.

» Tuesday Stuff

 

It’s Tuesday and here are the news:

• Google has released a beta version of their new Chrome web browser, running on WebKit like Apple’s Safari. The main idea behind the browser is to speed up websites by in one way or another, caching more code, mainly speeding up JavaScript web apps. You can find a post over at the official Google Blog that talks about the release. Currently it is for Windows only.
   
• Timothy Armes has released an update to his popular LR/Enfuse Lightroom plugin, bringing it up to version three. Features included in this new version includes batch processing and the ability for the plugin to reimport and stack the originals, and more. Both of these features do require Lightroom 2.
   
• Mozilla has in the days released an alpha stage plugin for FireFox called Ubiquity which allow you to create simple and quick mashups. What you do is that you pop open a window inside of FireFox (hud-style, transparent, dark-grey) where you type a command of what you want to do (like "google text" — which will search google for "text"). Check it out and give it a test, it’s relatively cool. It’s still a little buggy and could use a lot more commands, but hey, it’s only the first alpha version.
   
• Over at the Photography Corner they have posted a great article today in their resources section. The article is all Tips for Photographing Wildlife and is very well written and takes up some really good pointers.

Finally a note to everyone in the US Gulf Area! Hope everything is well with you and I hope it’s going to stay that way. Be safe!
