Jeroen Coumans — Fri, 08 Aug 2008 12:11:53 +0200

Very cool: "Greasepocket is a version of Greasemonkey for the iPhone. Just like Greasemonkey userscripts can be installed via the web. These scripts can access the accelerometer and location APIs (perhaps more). Greasepocket has the potential to shift some of the balance back to the web."
Now let's wait and see if Apple will approve this app if it comes out.
