One of the most popular programs for compressing and decompressing files is WinZip. WinZip recently launched an iOs application that is designed to make viewing the contents of a compressed file so much easier. If you have been looking for a way to view the contents of compressed files while on the go, the WinZip application will be perfect for you.

A cinemagraph is essentially the marriage of still photos and moving video, except only a portion of the scene is animated. Typical examples include a tree swaying in the breeze, water flowing from a tap or the flame on a candle. In case you’re still confused, here’s a cinemagraph that I have made using the very app I’m about to talk about.

The Internet has been awash with hype about Clear since it was first announced and demoed by developers, Realmac Software. The app finally hit the App Store last week and is already proving itself a worthy competitor to the hordes of other list-making apps available for the iPhone. It’s cheap, simple and very easy to use but is Clear worth a dollar when a pen and paper has served us so well in the past?

Back in 2010, I wrote about a well designed task management, cross-platform application called Wunderlist. It does what you can do in any spreadsheet, paper notebook, or other task managers, but it’s much better to look at and access over the Internet and your iOS devices. Since its first application release, the developers, Wunderkinder, have been beta-testing a much more enhanced version of their program, called Wunderkit.

Twitter, the most used micro-blogging site on the Internet, released an update of its official mobile app for the iPhone and Android. There’s nothing Twitteriffic about the new 4.1 version update, released on Tuesday, but for those who tweet by phone, there are a few welcomed navigation features brought back to the app. Both mobile [...]

Recently, I wrote about an awesome modification for a jailbroken iPhone 4S called AssistantExtensions. It allows you to do all kinds of new things with Siri that we never thought possible. What makes this tweak so special is the fact that other developers can use the framework to create their own tweaks. Now that the tweak has been around for a few weeks, the modifications are starting to come in.

I love iPhone apps that solve little problems which can often be worrisome if not addressed. How many times have you needed to know when the warranty ends on a product you purchased, or when was the last time you visited the dentist? Usually we have to second guess this type of information, or locate receipts to find these dates. But now there are some handy iPhone countdown and reminder apps that can help you.

There’s something about technology I find truly fascinating. The more sophisticated everything becomes, the more trivial problems are created. Back when I was using my trusty Nokia 6070, I had no desire or need to copy and paste things from my desktop to my phone. My phone and my desktop were two different entities, and I didn’t even dream of being able to copy and paste something from my desktop, and have it appear instantly on my phone.

It would be great if we all had the time, skills, and patience to learn computer coding, especially since technology pervades so many areas of our life. But thankfully, there are applications and web developers out there who provide ways for the rest of us to produce apps with little or no coding skills. One such web application is called Buzztouch and now a similar program has just been released called Infinite Monkeys.
