Thumbnail image for Recommended: Flipboard – iPad Social Media Magazine & RSS Feeds

Robert Scoble (scobleizer) calls Flipboard a “killer app” for the iPad. I think killer app is relative. What may be a killer app for him and some thousands of other users, might be pretty boring to users like, say, my mum. Never the less, I gave Flipboard a chance, partly because it’s free and still [...]

Thumbnail image for Review: $10 iPad Case From eBay

Got your shiny new iPad and want to protect it just a little bit? That’s what I wanted, plus I felt that the back of the iPad was too slippery for me to feel comfortable when using it as an e-reader. Putting the iPad into some kind of leather’ish case not only protects it, [...]

Thumbnail image for iFlicks: Easy Video Conversion on Mac with Metadata Support [Review]

iFlicks is a neat little application that I found while searching for an alternative to VideoMonkey which is still a bit too buggy for my taste. Basically, I’ve had it with the monkey and I wouldn’t mind paying a small fee for an app that just works.

For instance, it has two built-in batteries with more than 5x as much capacity as the iPhone.
