2012_02_14-Text1.jpgLast week we posted about some useful safety apps for your phone. As we mentioned, while they won't take care of everything they can certainly help out. One area we didn't cover is the danger of texting on the go. Sure it's no shark diving, base jumping or night on the town with Snooki, but it has its inherent hazards. Here are some apps to help protect you and your loved ones, from the uncertainty and perils of a dangerous, word-filled world. More

Video games and the way people connect with them, and to others, has changed so drastically in the past 10 years it's practically unrecognizable from what we remember during our childhood. Multiplayer used to mean that all the players needed to be in the same room, sharing the screen with the other 3 players.

2012_02_09-safety6.jpgThe world can be a dangerous place. While we're not ones to look for it around every corner, when it happens to you a plan or some kind of insurance makes all the difference. While apps can't take the place of common sense, they can certainly aid in your response. We've rounded up some of the better personal safety apps out there, hopefully to help keep you aware and not paranoid. More

Apple is king. Everyone seems to be bowing at the feet of the company's minimalism aesthetic, straight-forward interfaces, and "just works" mentality. Who can blame them? It looks like the design language of the future (albiet a future designed in the 60s). Some designers come by it honestly, being former Apple employees themselves. Here are some of their products, which show the apple doesn't fall too far. More

2012-02-08-Hyperlocal Apps.jpgWhere would you like to go? A good question, especially when you're in a city rich with choices and opportunities like New York, LA or San Francisco. 'If you want it, I will find it' your smartphone beckons and it certainly will with the help of point of interest apps like these. Whether you're an out of towner experiencing new territory or an adventurer searching for a pot of gold on your very own turf, these apps can find an amazing Italian restaurant that was under your nose the whole time. Exploration hasn't died yet, it just changed into a new form we can all appreciate. More

Here's a series of iPhone cases to either produce wide grins of approval or disapproving sneers, depending upon the person's allegiances and memories of their first personal computers (both an ancient 486DX Compaq and an iMac in our household).
