Ladies’ arm pits? There’s an app for that
It’s the sort of app that fascinates thanks to a combination of frisson and revulsion, but The Pits [App Store link] for iPhone and iPod touch will certainly gain some attention.
Basically a fairly random selection of the arm pits of young ladies, cropped from various existing photos rather than taken especially for, it’s hardly the [...]
When technology gets creepy – the inspirational moment
Coming across as The Stepford Teenagers meets Minority Report, this overly polished commercial from Korean outfit Inbrics makes me want to roll around in the mud for a while with my ZX81.
“Experience the inspirational moment” indeed.
Still the company’s M1 Android-based smartphone cum mobile Internet device, which features an AMOLED touchscreen that slides to reveal a [...]
SearchTrends app goes live on App Store
What do you do when you don’t want to work? Generally, I surf around sites such as Twitter, YouTube, Digg, Flickr, idly looking at what it is that other people are looking at.

Finally, my BudTrap and 4 BudTrap Buddies arrive
A couple of months ago, I tried to work out what the whole BudTrap thing was about.

118 800 is the name (and number) of the new UK based service. Unlike competing 118 XXX services it doesn’t simply provide a yellow-pages like listing of [...]

Hands on with iPhone and Android visual search app kooaba
There’s something a little bit scary about what kooaba can do. Labelled – rightly as far as I can ascertain – Shazam for images – kooaba is a very neat app that enables you to categorise (and build) your CD, DVD and game collection via the power of computer vision and some database trawling.
The process [...]
Satio’s so hot, hot girl’s clothes fall off
Smartphones often have this effect on women I’ve noticed

BudTrap: making friends and saving the world, one tangled earphone cable at a time
This is your official mind twister for the day – BudTrap.
I’ve spent a couple of hours trying to work what it’s all about. I’ve asked for additional clarification. I’m not convinced it’s not some huge April Fool’s Joke (or internet scam).
Anyhow, here goes….
Don’t you get annoyed when your earphones get all tangled up? Of course, [...]
