Autism News Reader

This app is awesome! Both of my brothers are on the autism spectrum and I'm always looking for new information to tell my mom. But, I don't always have time to sift through the wide world of the internet or to read every newsletter I receive. Actually, I'm tired of receiving so many emails from all of the autism organizations I'm signed up for. Finally, an app! I just check what's the latest and if it's something I don't already know about, I get a pretty good idea of what it's about from this app and then I can do further research! Huge time saver! Good info/usually up-to-date.

If this app were free, I might recommend it. I don't think it's worth the price. Most of the information you can find easily online with a quick google search. Save your $$.

I downloaded this app just because of the title. It's really not that great. They could have made it more realistic and used pop and political figures instead of cartoon characters. Nonetheless, I have gotten a few laughs from friends who have seen this app on my iphone. Ha.

The Hand of God

  • App review for GoalParade
  • Posted by lydia2 April 15, 2010
  • Recommended for Sports Fans

I was explaining to a friend of mine about Diego Maradona's "header" goal against the Italians at the World Cup. It was always said that Maradona used his hand to put the ball in the goal, but when asked he would say "it was the hand of god." The ref never saw what happened, but many people speculated and watched the replay over and over again. And for most of my life that goal was known as "the hand of god." Finally, Maradona admitted to it. He said it was a trick he learned as a kid, "to make a fist with your hand, and bring it up next to your head." Stories aside, if you're a soccer/futbol fan, this app is a must have. And it makes it easier to explain Maradona to your friends.

Pretty Cool

Lot's of virtually useless apps (tip calculator, fake call, battery info, etc) but at less than a buck for all 60, I really couldn't justify not buying it.

little effort, tasty results

hi,
i prepared the "curry gnocchis" and against my former experiences with cooking recipes it turned out to be an enjoyable meal ;-)
the combination of just a few ingredients and detailed step by step pics&instructions makes the app a guidance for kitchen novices.

Ipot Lite

We knew it was coming. Now, it's here! GPS for finding pot cafe's. I'm all for medical thc, but I don't think I need to have four cafe's within walking distance from each other and my house. Oh yes, and then every once in a while, the FBI swat team drops in from the sky dressed all in black with machine guns and closes them down. 5 minutes later, the protesters show up with their signs chanting -But I have a prescription! The next day, the cafe's open again and it's business as usual. You have to have the pro version to get the ratings and reviews, etc and I'm sure that's the most helpful part of the application, since the cafe's are so easy to find. Then again, you never know, you may find yourself in a new neighborhood. Since Cali has been on the forefront of medical thc, I don't think this app will be helpful in many other states.

The Paper Plane Guys Starter Kit

What could be more fun than making paper planes with the advise of a professional? This app is great for kids and adults, is super easy and has clear graphics. My desk is starting to look like a run way. And just remember, it's all fun and games until someone gets an eye poked out. It's amazing how much fun we can have with a piece of paper, or an origami dollar bill. Let's not forget that we can "geekout" on mediums other than technology.

Dollar Origami Lite

  • App review for Dollar Origami Lite
  • Posted by lydia2 April 15, 2010
  • Recommended for Book Readers, Gamers, Parents, Students or Animal Lovers

I had a lot of fun and confusion with Dollar Orgami Lite. I'm sure the explanations in the full version are probably much better. But after folding and refolding, sometimes ripping, I learned my way through the shirt and the fish. Not bad, although it took me a while and a few guesses. The lite version is worthy of a test run. If you don't like it, delete it. Me, I'll probably go pro. I think origami is cool! And, If I can do all of this with a dollar, imagine what's possible with poster paper. Or is origami supposed to stay small?

Tai Chi For Everyone

  • App review for Tai Chi For Seniors
  • Posted by lydia2 April 15, 2010
  • Recommended for Road Warriors, Workout Junkies, Outdoors Enthusiasts, Social Butterflies, Sports Fans or Tech/Social Networking Junkies

Even though the app name is Tai Chi for Seniors, it's really for everyone and not for the faint of heart. It also requires patience and practice. Since, I've only seen this on the iphone, I think I will love it even more when I use it on the IPAD. There is a wide body of knowledge in this app and the instruction is very thorough. A part of me wants to say that this app is limited by the iphone itself due to screen size, etc. Then again, I wouldn't have wanted them to scale back the app in any way in order to be more compatible with the iphone. I'll let you know after I get my hands on an IPAD.

Basic Talmud on your Iphone

I've been looking for religious apps for a long time and this one is a GREAT start. It's organized like the Talmud and the text is clear and readable. I am also looking for an app that is in Hebrew and English, but I need a phonetic pronunciation of the Hebrew in English, so I know I'm pronouncing the Hebrew words correctly. Then again, we all have to start somewhere and The Talmud is an extraordinary intro.

Dub Siren is my favorite app. It makes me happy. It lights me up with joy. I smile. If you're a reggae fan, how can you live without collaborating with the music? Awesome beats and sound effects. Perfect for DJ's. This app is professional. Just watch the videos and you'll know what I'm talking about.

I love this app and am sorry I didn't find it sooner. How can we have any complaints about an app that lets us read books on our iphone? And yes! The text is readable. If anyone finds something better that is also free, please let me know. I'll be shocked!-L2

Owls for newbies

I got this app to check it out for my coworkers. I love my paid version but I can't expect others to want to pay while still not even sure about twitter itself. And frankly this lite version more than delivers.

From what I can see the only huge difference is that you can only manage 3 accounts from the lite version whereas the full version gives you what seems to be an unlimited number of account options. If you're a social networking junky this isn't the app for you, but then the tiny cost for the full version won't likely stop you from getting it.

If you're new to twitter or love Hootsuite and don't need to manage multiple accounts then this is the app for you. Scheduling tweets, easily setting up columns, simple to use and intuitive all while being quite easy visually make this app a clear winner in twitter management tools.
