App review: Seesmic for iPhone
The awesome people at Seesmic finally got around to launching their iPhone application last week.
I’ve been a fan of Seesmic from rather early days. To me, they edged out TweetDeck as the Desktop Twitter client to have at the time, having launched support for multiple accounts and integrating Facebook support before anyone else did. Since then I’ve moved on [...]
Just Mobile Xtand Go for iPhone 3G/3GS
I first saw Just Mobile’s Xtand Go at CES. Now, I’ve had the Xtand Go for iPhone 3G/3GS installed in my Jeep for a while and I thought it was about time that I’d say something about it. Don’t look at this as a review necessarily but hopefully it’ll tell you whether you should get [...]
Can you trust App Store reviews?
If you’re anything like me, you look through reviews of apps in the iTunes App Store before you download an app. Reviews from other users should be a critical part of other users making decisions about what to download or not and especially what to spend money on.
This morning I find an email in my [...]
Like 7 Days? – There’s an App For That
My very first job, after leaving school, was working for a Newspaper. This instilled in me a need for a daily fix of news. When I arrived in the UAE I was pleasantly surprised at the choice of good quality English dailies.
One of the biggest surprises was that one of the choices is available free [...]

WordPress iPhone App Review
I do a lot of very quick writing for this blog and others while waiting for friends to show up at a coffee shop or while waiting for dinner to get delivered. Most of this writing is done on my iPhone – I will get a sudden burst of inspiration for a topic or [...]
Gizmodo and the next iPhone
In the past 24 hours, Gizmodo has shared possibly the biggest scoop of the year so far: Apple’s upcoming iPhone.
Recap: Someone supposedly found the new protoype iPhone (known as iPhone 4) in a bar, tried to return it to Apple and eventually sold it to Gizmodo who in turn wrote up in full detail everything [...]
Top 5 iPhone apps of this week
Several hundred apps and hard to choose from. Varieties are your choice and each varieties have their own varieties. So here are top 5 I feel any iPhone user should have in their pocket especially in UAE and ofcourse, The Middle East.
1. Articles ($2.99)
This is one of the best app I’ve seen for Wikipedia. Well [...]
iBlueNova (iBluetooth) a must have for jailbroken iPhone
It was the most awaited app for the jailbroken iPhone users and finally its here. MeDevil’s iBlueNova, which was formerly known as iBluetooth for the iPhone 2G but due to several rights issue the name was changed. One of the reason why people don’t go for iPhone is due to the lack of file transfer [...]
Mobile web sites and location information
With this post I want to urge all companies to make a mobile-friendly version of their web site, that is quick and easy to go to with an iPhone or other similar device and add basic contact and location information to that site. Yesterday I was trying to make my way to the Canon EOS [...]
What would you like to see in iPhone OS4?
There have been rumours running about on the near future release of the next-gen iPhone OS. While no details have been given – aside from some interesting specs on the iPhone 4G – we can pretty much speculate what new stuff the OS upgrade would provide.
I have compiled a little list of things, in no [...]
iPhone multitasking that works
I’ve heard a countless times before from BlackBerry converts that one of the most irritating issues they face on the iPhone is the lack of multitasking support.
Personally, it pisses me off sometimes, barely restraining myself from throwing the iPhone across the room and watch the precious touch screen shatter into sexy little pieces. When I [...]
Zombieville: zombie slaughter game for iPhone
I’ve downloaded a lot of games for my iPhone but I’ve played none of them more than Zombieville USA. Especially on my recent CES trip I spent many hours in airports and on planes killing zombies with guns, chainsaws, lasers and ninja swords. If it sounds bloody and violent it is but it is deceptively [...]
Stay True to Thy Self
And unlike the message it tried to promote through all of its movies throughout the years, Disney did not stay true to itself.
Touchscreen vs. Qwerty
A few months back, I got myself a cellphone with a QWERTY keyboard. I must admit, I needed it. I SMS a lot and having a cellphone keyboard resembling that of the computer’s would make my task faster and easier. And how true it is! I had been using the computer keyboard for years so [...]
