		<description><![CDATA[An excellent app for brainstorming and not taking]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Idea Store by <a title="" href="http://www.ideastoreapp.com/" target="_blank">Spore Tools Ltd.</a> is an excellent place for brainstorming, as well as, general note taking. It offers beautiful simplicity in addition to superior categorization skills, keeping all your entries neatly organized. It also offers seamless syncing between iOS devices through <a title="" href="https://www.dropbox.com/" target="_blank">Dropbox</a>.</p>
<p>To create an entry, simply tap the compose button at the bottom and begin typing. Once a entry has been created, it is very simple to label/relabel it with any group desired, flag it for importance or send it to the archive. The most difficult part of using Idea Store is linking to a Dropbox account, but even that could not have been made any easier, except for having to select the folder to sync with before entering the credentials.</p>
<p>While I still have an affinity for the native iOS Notes app, the organizational ability and easy of use of Idea Store is very impressive. A couple of font choices, which wouldn&#8217;t take away from Idea Store&#8217;s intended simplicity, along with a few more added features and it could easily become my main choice as a quick, low effort, note taking app.</p>
<p><strong>Pros -</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Clean and Attractive UI</li>
<li>Super Simple Dropbox Integration</li>
<li>Notes are Side Swipeable for Quick Commands</li>
<li>Easily Email Entries</li>
<li>Very Flexible with Labeling and Sorting Options</li>
<li>Current/Archive Labels</li>
<li>Uses Native iOS Spell Check</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Cons -</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Web Links in Entries Aren&#8217;t Clickable</li>
<li>Lack of Font Choices</li>
</ul>

		<description><![CDATA[A simple concept, but addictive game]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>At first glance, Bit Pilot might seem to just be an insanely bare and stark game with its 8-bit graphics, and extreme simplicity. And I tell you, that is the beauty of Bit Pilot. The point of the game? Not losing.</p>
<p>Basically, you control a spaceship, avoiding deadly asteroids and laser beams that whizz across the screen, and picking up powerups as you go. It&#8217;s actually surprisingly addictive. Really, really addictive. As an added bonus, its soundtrack, by Sabre Pulse, includes a wealth of 8-bit chiptunes (even unlockable ones) that compliment the 8-bit style of the game.</p>
<p>The bottom line? With it&#8217;s varying difficulties, and fun modes like Tunnels and Supermassive mode, Bit Pilot is sure to give you lots of fun for hours hours on end!</p>
<p><strong>Pros</strong> -</p>
<ul>
<li>Awesome soundtrack</li>
<li>Polished graphics</li>
<li>Addictive</li>
<li>Universal app</li>
<li>Lots of modes and difficulties to choose from</li>
</ul>

		<description><![CDATA[An awesome personal information management system ]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>One issue that quickly becomes very clear when someone first starts using iOS is the lack of native Personal Information Management (PIM). Apple leaves it up to the user to define their own system for task management (To Do&#8217;s) and how to integrate it into the native iOS calendar. This issue has been exhaustively addressed by 3rd Party devs but there are still problems connecting these apps to the native calendar usually leaving the user switching between task and calendar apps.</p>
<p><a title="" href="http://www.webis.net/" target="_blank">WebIS</a>, whom has a long history with PIM apps across multiple mobile platforms, offers a comprehensive solution to PIM on iOS with Pocket Informant. Manage your calendar and tasks, including sending meeting invitations, filtering, multiple views, event location mapping, contextual task reminders, and much more, all in one app. With the many different customizations and views, it&#8217;s easy to make Pocket Informant HD fit your needs.</p>
<p>Pocket Informant offers many syncing options; connecting with <a title="" href="http://www.google.com/intl/en/googlecalendar/about.html" target="_blank">Google Calendar</a>, the <a title="" href="http://www.pocketinformant.com/Forums/index.php?app=blog&amp;module=display&amp;section=blog&amp;blogid=1&amp;showentry=241" target="_blank">native iOS calendar</a> (not recommended), Outlook via <a title="" href="http://www.webis.net/products_info.php?p_id=pocketinformant_iphone&amp;tab_id=sync" target="_blank">Desktop Direct Outlook Sync</a>, <a title="" href="http://www.toodledo.com/" target="_blank">Toodledo.com</a> for task syncing, or just as a stand alone app. Connecting Pocket Informant to Google Calendar and Toodeldo enables painless OTA syncing and keeps both iPhone/Touch and iPad versions up to date at the same time. It will also connect to multiple Google calendars, allowing event creation, editing, and invitations in each.</p>
<p>Pocket Informant is the premier PIM app on iOS and without the need of network connectivity for 3rd party apps to push notifications, has replaced the native calendar on all my iOS devices. The presentation of all the important information combined with the high level of control to quickly make changes or create new items, in addition to unlimited alarms, makes it hard to beat.</p>
<p><strong>Pros -</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Calendar and Task Management in One App</li>
<li>Day, Week and Month Views</li>
<li>Google Calendar Integration, with Multiple Calendar Support and OTA Sync</li>
<li>Toodledo.com Task Integration and OTA Sync</li>
<li>Desktop Direct Outlook Sync Available for $5 from their Website</li>
<li>Event Location Mapping and Contextual Alarms for Tasks</li>
<li>Multiple Appearance Settings for Customization and Organization</li>
<li>Easily Create &amp; Duplicate Events or Tasks</li>
<li>Edit Multiple Tasks at the Same Time (Change Due Date, etc.)</li>
<li>Multiple Alarms with User Specified Alert Times</li>
<li>Multiple Filter Options to Sort Tasks (Date, Priority, Location, etc.)</li>
<li><a title="" href="http://www.smilesoftware.com/TextExpander/touch/index.html" target="_blank">TextExpander Touch</a> Support</li>
<li>Multiple Back Up &amp; Restore Options</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Cons -</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>May be to many Options for the Average User</li>
<li>Price is Above Average</li>
<li>Doesn&#8217;t have the &#8220;Stock iOS&#8221; UI some Users May Prefer</li>
</ul>

		<description><![CDATA[An app that allows you to access your iOS device from your desktop]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>There are many VNC clients in the App Store, but not many like this app. myPhoneDesktop is an app that let&#8217;s you access your iOS device from your desktop. An amazing app that&#8217;s worth a buy for anyone that might want this functionality. This app is great, and let me tell you why.</p>
<p>I use my iOS devices a lot to share information back and forth between my computer and iOS device, and this app provides a perfect solution for making it easier. This app allows you to place calls, send out SMS messages, transfer long text notes, copy and send URL links, and save images conveniently from my computer to my iOS device. In addition, there is a desktop client that allows you to transfer your data quickly to your iPhone through secure servers.</p>
<p>Basically, do something on your computer, and your iOS device will mirror it. After the data appears in-app, you can assign pictures to a contact, email it, or lookup an address in Google Maps.</p>
<p>The app works wonderfully; from setting up your iOS device to transferring data quickly and easily. myPhoneDesktop does what it advertises to do, and is worth a buy if it is for you.</p>
<p><strong>Pros</strong> -</p>
<ul>
<li>Very easy to setup. Most apps would require complex setup.</li>
<li>Enables a functionality that your iOS doesn&#8217;t have built in</li>
<li>Works over 3G and WiFi</li>
<li>Multiple accounts and device support</li>
<li>Desktop clients for OS X, Windows, and Linux</li>
<li>Universal app</li>
</ul>
<div><strong>Cons</strong> -</div>
<div>
<ul>
<li>None</li>
</ul>

		<description><![CDATA[A very useful archival tool providing Tweet management to the power Tweeter]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://www.riverfold.com/" target="_blank">Riverfold&#8217;s</a> Tweet Library is a very useful archival tool providing Tweet management to the power Tweeter, blog site or actively Tweeting companies. Once Twitter account credentials are entered, the 3,200 most recent Tweets from that account are archived and available for review. This provides a great way to browse Tweets from an account and get a better understanding of its Twitter presence.</p>
<p>Another impressive ability of Tweet Library is the creation and management of Tweet &#8220;Collections&#8221;, which can also be published on <a href="http://tweetlibrary.com/">www.tweetlibrary.com</a> to be shared with others. Creating a Collection of Tweets is super simple. Tweets can be selected from anywhere in the app and added to user created collections based on whatever criteria the user chooses. This also works hand in hand with the numerous filtering options that are available to sort timelines and lists based on user selected key words, specific users, specific links (twitpic.com, yfrog.com), etc. Unfortunately, a downside to filtering is that it&#8217;s limited to just the Tweets already loaded in Tweet Library.</p>
<p>Contrary to my impressions based on its name, Tweet Library is not intended for use as an RSS reader equivalent for Twitter. I was looking for an archived library of the 3,200 most recent, unread Tweets from specific accounts I follow or from subscribed lists, to browse without the fear losing the Tweets into the Twitter netherworld of the past tense.</p>
<p>Overall, Tweet Library is an excellent Twitter accessory app but not quite complete enough to be a daily driver on its own. It provides plenty of tools to help sort through timelines of the power user, as well as, for site administrators to keep track of company/blog&#8217;s Twitter accounts. While it&#8217;s not for the beginner or average user, those who need to take advantage of its capabilities will find it very valuable.</p>
<p>Check out the Tweet Library <a href="http://www.riverfold.com/software/tweetlibrary/screencasts/TweetLibrary_overview.mov" target="_blank">Video</a>.</p>
<p><strong>Pros -</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Archives the last 3,200 Items You Have Tweeted</li>
<li>Filter and View Your Tweets by Day</li>
<li>Create and Share &#8220;Collections&#8221; of Favorite/Useful Tweets</li>
<li>Fully Functioning Twitter Client</li>
<li>Numerous Filtering and Hiding Options</li>
<li>TextExpander and Instapaper Integration</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Cons -</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>No Full Screen In-App Web Browser View</li>
<li>No Full Screen Image View</li>
<li>No Select All for Copying/Removing Tweets in Collections</li>
<li>Plain User Interface</li>
<li>A Little Pricey</li>

		<description><![CDATA[An awesome replacement for Camera.app app]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Apple&#8217;s native Camera.app for iPhone is a great, easy to use, and takes awesome photos. However, one thing that annoys me about Camera.app is speed. Camera.app opens slowly and there is a delay while pressing the capture button and the photo being taken.</p>
<p>Luckily, &#8220;there&#8217;s an app for that&#8221; and it&#8217;s called Quickpix. Quickpix is an awesome photography app that is a must have for every photo enthusiast. Not only is this app super fast, but feature rich.</p>
<p><em>Some of features include</em>:</p>
<ul>
<li>Fast startup</li>
<li>Capture pictures while recording video</li>
<li>Save to camera roll</li>
<li>Pinch zoom options</li>
<li>Customize shooting buttons</li>
<li>Special modes</li>
</ul>
<p>In conclusion, if you take a lot of photos with your iPhone Quickpix is a must have app.</p>
<p><strong>Pros</strong> -</p>
<ul>
<li>Lots of features</li>
<li>Easy to use</li>
<li>Super fast</li>
<li>Free</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Cons </strong>-</p>

		<description><![CDATA[A unique matching game]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Monster Soup is an awesome new game from the Kieffer Bros (folks who created <a href="http://simple-reviews.com/2010/05/abca/">Abca </a>and <a href="http://simple-reviews.com/2010/06/aqueduct-sneak-preview/">Aqueduct</a>). This game combines a classic gameplay with a Tetris-styled element where soup monsters fall upwards into ice. In addition, there are power-ups throughout the game which makes the game really fun and challenging to play.</p>
<p>The game is split up into many levels, and each level is completed when the player has matched the correct number of monsters. At the end of each level, the board is cleared of monsters and the score is tallied. Each level is different and challenging.</p>
<p>Monster Soup is a challenging and unique matching game. The fantastic gameplay and awesome music makes this game worth a try.</p>
<p><strong>Pros </strong>-</p>
<ul>
<li>Unique gameplay</li>
<li>Awesome music</li>
