How Do You Tweet?

Everybody seems to have their own personal favorite twitter client whether it be an application or web-based. Personally I used Tweetdeck because it gives me everything I want to see all at once, this is nice because it fills my second monitor. I am also fortunate to have 4GBs of RAM because Tweetdeck is a memory guzzler. From Tweetdeck you can view someones profile and view that specific persons tweets, you can also follow, unfollow, or block from the same screen. Tweetdeck is very customi...

NightStand Weather Clock

I definitely enjoy using applications that act as an alarm clock and show you intuitive user interfaces, and of course, give you an alarm clock. I reviewed iHome + Sleep a few months ago and I really liked it, but the UI wasn't exactly that great. It lacked a bit of features, and it was a bit buggy. NightStand, however, is a great addition to your Apps collection. The Full version is $0.99, but if you'd like a free version of it, you can download it as well. The app includes a lot of features...

TeamViewer now on the iPhone

I'm a fan of TeamViewer for the Mac and PC. Sometimes it gets to be very buggy, but most of the time it works. Today, while finally looking around in the app store for some apps(which I haven't done in almost two months), I found TeamViewer as one of the top productivity apps for the iPhone. I was shocked to see the fact that TeamViewer was finally on the iPhone, but not many people reported about it. I tried the free version(The pro version is $99.99) and it works alright. if you've ever used a...

MLB.com At Bat 2010: Worth the $15?

if you follow baseball and have an iPhone or iPod Touch, you're probably familiar with MLB's MLB.com At bat iPhone application, which gives you an all in one application regarding everything dealing with baseball. I bought the 2009 version and I was definitely impressed, but a negative to this was the fact that it was $9.99, AND you had to pay for the next year as well. So this year, I was gonna buy it for $9.99, but I found that the price went up from $9.99 to $14.99. Which left me thinking - i...

Tweetie For the iPhone – Best Twitter Client Out There?

What is the best Twitter client for the iPhone, you ask? Well on this episode of Techknowledgey, I tell you.I honestly think that it is Tweetie. It has every feature I would ever possibly want, and it’s incredibly well designed. The developers really knew what they were doing, and the way they implemented many features is just incredible. For instance, refreshing the feed is done by simply scrolling to the top of the list. Shortening URLs can be done while composing a new tweet with the t...

Cinch for Mac Review

On this episode of TechKnowledgey, I talk about Windows 7 and some of it’s nice window management features. You know how you can compare two windows by dragging them to the edge of the screen? Well now a developer has created a program for the Mac that allows you to do this in Mac OS X as well. I always found it interesting how it seems that lately, at least, Microsoft is doing all the copying of Macs and Apple with their new Zunes and so on. No, I am not saying that they just go ahea...

Icy Escort [iPhone App]

Icy Escort is a fun game made by Donut Games, the same makers from the game Traffic Rush for the iPhone. The game is free for a limited time, so don't miss out! The game provides a lot of different features, such as 30 different and action packed levels, easy super-responsive controls, powerups to make things more fun, and fun stats to track how well you've been playing. Definitely a fun game you should check out! Though, I have found that the game tends to be laggy at times on an iPhone 3...

Glow Jump for the iPhone

Glow Jump for the iPhone is a fun game in where you attempt to get a high score by jumping as high as you could. It's an equivalent to Doodle jump, which isn't a free app. Glow Jump enables you to create your own profile on a service called Openfeint, which saves your high scores in a database along with thousands of other players across the world. Glow Jump is in the top 25 list in Apple's app store, in which I'm definitely not suprised. Features include: Moving and rainbow pl...

MyCast Weather: Advanced Weather On your iPhone

I love tracking the weather. I'm also a huge fan of severe weather, so I always look at the radar for future forecasts. Up until a few days ago, I used Weather Channel Max to keep track of my weather on my iPhone. The UI is great, but sometimes it lacks some features. Yesterday, I found a neat iPhone weather app called MyCast Weather. This app has everything, including Radars, temperatures, forecasts, shake to update data, and much more. This app is an all in one weather app, and definitely a mu...

Pixelmator for Mac Review

Pixelmator is a great alternative to Photoshop. It is only $50 but is stuffed with advanced features; those include layers, eye dropper, gradient, and effects tools. Also it comes with basic brushes, but you can download other brushes at the Pixelmator website; you can even design your own brushes with customizable shape, size, and spacing. Another key factor is the rulers and guides that help you align everything perfectly. There are also grabber, scaling, and zooming tools. This app comes out ...
