iPad App of the Week – Touch LCD Designer Speaking Clock
This week’s featured app is brought to you by the developers at LightPillar. The Touch LCD Designer Speaking Clock is by and large the best alarm clock app out there for both the iPhone and the iPad. Recently I did some redecorating in my room, which allowed me to clear my laptop off of my nightstand. With all that empty space I figured it would be the perfect spot for my shiny new iPad which wasn’t getting [...]

Therefore, I find myself bringing reusable (usually Nalgene) bottles with me where ever I go. Problem [...]

Let me tell you, getting someone to explain to you, over the phone, what they’re seeing on their computer is a feat .

What’s so cool about iPhone 4?
As an Apple fangirl I feel obligated (not that it’s a chore in any sense of the word) to express my opinion on the new iPhone. Ahem, I LOVE IT. I have to admit, when the world was first introduced to the phone via Jason Chen of Gizmodo, my reaction to the aesthetics of the device was, in a word, disappointed. I’m a big fan of smooth lines and curved edges the metal casing around the [...]
