iPhone Apps

[Bullaholic]

I guess am a gadget geek, and I really like some of the neat technology we enjoy in the 21st century. Admittedly, most of the gadgets and many of the iPhone apps are really entertainment toys and suffer somewhat in the practical useage dept. To each his own I guess, but some iPhone apps keep me amused from time to time, and are actually really useful. Some of my favs:

Google Places- This thing will look up almost anything in the way of places and tell you everything like how to get there from where you are, show you a pic of the place, and even call them if you want. You can do searches like.."seafood, denton, tx" and in a few secs all the seafood places in that locale will be listed, starting with the closest to your location and allow you to scroll thru all the places listed. Works for banks, hotels, even massage parlors, if you want...


TV.com- Allows you to view for free selected episodes of TV programs such as "Star Trek" , etc. with great quality and audio.

Star Walk- Shows you the heavenly bodies that are in the sky wherever you point the phone and lists them as you pan the phone. Has a database which gives you info on any of the celestial bodies when you tap on it.

Wunder Radio- Allows you to pick fav radio stations from locales and streams the broadcasts. Even lists some fire & police scanner streams.

Pandora- Allows you to pick songs or artists with a certain genre or style and allows you to crete custom stations with like song & artist characteristics for future listening.

Red Laser- Allows scanning with the iPhone camera of almost all barcodes and displays the info in text.

Word Lens- Uses the camera to view a foreign language sign and will actually translate the words into English.

Ain't technology kewl?

Dropbox looks pretty handy, Emerson, but BedIntruder is definitely not a 63yr-old's cup of tea...
