Aurora Feint is awesome, thanks for the heads up. It reminds me that I need to get puzzle quest on the wii also. I've been playing it for around 2 hours already just leveling up. There seems to be a feature where you can add friends also. I need to read the official site and see what all else is in store for the game.

At the moment I have aim, myspace, aurora feint, phonesaber, remote and myLite. I may try out myLite later to see if I can induce seizures in people or just light up things real funky while DJing to see record labels and controls.

Well back to playing feint.

Graffitio has a lot of potential. Quitter is a mobile app to help you quit smoking.

NearPics could be neat, but its actually stupid.

yeah i saw quitter. Graffito i havent touched. NearPics did suck.

Also Shazam is the best music identifying program. Itll listen to the song for 10 seconds and identify it, provide youtube links, itunes links, album art and info. Even just save it on a list for later reference, even tag photos to it. Ive played it some of my most obscure music and its identified it, quickly at that.

Also i did clowdypics all night last night, check it joshhh

Add to the list of awesome free apps.

BoxOffice - Moviephone for your iPhone + Rottentomato ratings for movies listed.
Pandora - iPhone version of Pandora.com. It rules.
WeatherBug - Absolutely destroys the default weather app
Epocrates Rx - Not useful for everyone, but fun to fuck around with. It's the ultimate prescription drug dictionary. You can even type in multiple drugs and it will tell you how the drugs interact with eachother.

For new iphone owners, the exploit to create custom ringtones still works with this firmware and iTunes 7.7

If you have a Mac you can just use GarageBand. Though I'm sure this is for PC users.

WeatherBug

Hell with pandora get the last.fm app. I was curious about the pandora app since I've never heard of it and checked the website. I put maybe 3 or 4 band/artists in and nothing popped up or something wrong popped up. The last.fm app seems to be just like the computer plugin/player from browsing thru it. If this will track music listening stats on the phone, plus stream stations it kills pandora. Plus last.fm pretty much has anything you could ask for in music. If it doesn't atleast pop up a bands info or tracks you probably only listen to the songs your gay lover writes/sings to you out your window. Plus alot of us have last.fm accounts already.

Has anyone tried yelp yet? I get cracked up at the rotary dialers for the iphone too.
I just got this free dot matrix banner which is kinda neat.

Well time to look and see what all else I can find and level up on feint.

[Josh]

Well you listen to a bunch of weird shit, so yeah... its not going to find anything for you.

I gave the pandora site another try. Wtf is up with the "sorry our license limits song skips by the hour, blah blah blah". I was just checking to see what all songs would pop up on a certain station and previewed like 3 songs? Oh well still going with last.fm.

Yelp seems cool, I gave it a try and it actually picked up some places in my small town with some reviews. I'm gonna give it some more tries when I'm in the city and looking for a restaurant. I could of used that thing Sunday when I was in an area I didn't know to well and was looking for sushi. Hopefully an update will allow you to write reviews with the app.

I seen another program sorta like yelp and actually uses yelp for one of its sections, but seem the reviews are hammering it at the moment. So hopefully a update will fix it, since it sounds nice with it being able to find all sorts of stuff around you like gas stations, restaurants, movies and events.
