Remote Buddy – Control Everything!

 

I freeeeeaking well love this application. My Friend Yusef showed me it today and it gives you so much control of your mac with your humble apple remote or now your iphone.

 

I have my 24″ iMac at the end of my bed and love to watch BBC iPlayer etc in bed. The annoying thing is just as i get nice and comfy the program will end and I need to get out of bed and use my keyboard and mouse to choose another. With remote buddy I can use my humble apple remote to control the cursor. bring up an onscreen keyboard or even link through my iphone and stay in the comfort of my duvet!

iMagePhone – Quickly create wallpaper for your iPhone

 

iMagePhone is an application available in Lite (Free) or Pro (not Free) versions. Its a very neat and quick way of making and loading wallpapers for your lovely iPhone or iPod Touch.

 

I, use the lite version because a) its free and b) I dont need the extra features that the pro version gives you such as quartz filters etc as I can do all that shiznit in Pixelmator which is fast becoming one of my favourite applications.

VenueM – Convert your site with RSS into an iPhone Site…

Venue M Have unceremoniously decided to terminate everybodies account with very short notice and citing that they are “concentrating on native apps”….Poor form VenueM, POOR FORM!

 

I was looking for a way to optimise bigmacblog for iPhone and Android users, hopefully to make it load quicker and give a generally better viewing expeirence.

I think I found a way.

VenueM is a free web service where you enter your RSS feed address, fill in a few fields etc and Schblamo! An instant iPhone styled website……most excellent!

Storm Power Pack – Juice up that Phone…

Just came across this batter pack that claims to add an extra 20 hours to your phoning pleasure. Ther are lots of battery extenders out there for those peeps that cant get enough of the sexy gorgeous screen of the iPhone on full brightness!….this differs, however, because it also charges many other devices. Not sure how good it is as I haven’t tried one but at £38 it seems pretty reasonable and unlike many of the others it hasn’t been thwacked with the ugly stick.

Color Expert – Colour library in your pocket!

This one is a pretty contentious issue. Can one truly work with colour on an uncalibrated screen.

Well despite my initial misgivings, yes you can and quite succesfully. Its never going to be perfect but if your a designer, work with textiles or simply want to re-decorate your kitchen you cant really go wrong for £5.99. This web app works like a charm and despite being used on a typically saturated screen, the colour matching actually isnt that bad, and goes a long way to helping choose those oh so inmportant hues.

I love that you can email the swatched you create to yourself or others as it generates a lovely image of the colours to include in the mail as well as the colour details.

Cooliris – Reloaded on the iPhone

jeez, I just installed the iPhone App (hot of the press) thanks to the lovely Jenny Lum letting me know that its available……..crikey it works reaaaaaally well, I was expecting it to be a lot slower than the safari app but hell no…..if anything it may even be faster!

For me the killer is being able to email images direct from the application, great for doing little bits of research on the bus etc. (I know not all of you are dorky beans like me!)

Definitely get this one guys and best of all its free!

iPhone Photography Awards – Interesting Competition

I came across this website today that is dedicated to promoting the genré if iPhone photography. As most of you will know the iPhone photographs have a certain quality about them and can make for some really interesting and diverse images.

 

The competition does charge a small fee for entry and there isnt really much of a prize (being featured in a book annualy is their idea of a prize…wheres the free stuff!) but its nominal (about £1.50) and just to cover their costs.

 

If your interested head on over!
