Achieve iPhone game immortality

Have you ever been browsing the App Store and thought to yourself… geezzzz these people must have been high on crack when they named this app…? Well here’s your chance to do the naming yourself!
Trickshot Games is about to release a potentially fun game where you have to protect some cheese from a horde of [...]

Well, so much for that…

I saw that the NY Times Crosswords iPhone app is on sale for free so I figured I’d give it a try and maybe post it here… and posting it I am, but with a big frowny face!

This is the app that, over the past week, has been written about over and over and over again… and now Pepsi is apologizing for it.
Apologizing is definitely the right move from a PR standpoint, but I’m just gonna come out and say what everyone else is apparently afraid to… AMP UP BEFORE YOUR SCORE [...]

iPhone 3GS oleophobic = fantastic

iPhone 3G S!

Well since the current vote tally is 38-28 in favor of non-review editorials , I suppose now is as good a time as any to start spewing nonsense…
So I was just over at TechCrunch reading about today’s iPhone 3G S announcement and I also soaked in everything I could from Apple’s site update. Here’s what you wanna [...]
