“Groovy Motherfucker”

Jason Shiga’s outstanding “interactive” time-warping comic, reimagined as an iPad app. Highly recommended.

Congrats to my lovely chums at Massive Health on the launch of their first experiment. As beautiful and playful as you’d expect. Curious to see how helpful it is.

Dead handy. Lightweight tool to track which apps are accessing the internet, and which hosts they’re hitting.

OS X screensaver that shows your friends’ Instagram shots. Lovely!

Rdio have launched their (mostly-)native Mac client, and it’s grand. Not as nice as Spotify (playlist building is still clunky), but it does 99% of everything you want. I’ve been using it for a few weeks, and it was the sole reason I resubscribed.

OS X terminal application that emulates old & busted phosphor displays. Pointless and gorgeous.

<3. Like a Quicksilver or LaunchBar for your phone contacts. Previous versions were good, new version has replaced the Phone app in my iPhone launcher dock.

New Girl Talk album, free to download. Similar to his previous work, which is both a good thing, and mildly disappointing.

My new favourite iPhone app — When you’re running late, send an updating map of your whereabouts by text message so friends have some idea of when you’ll arrive! People should expect to receive these from me a lot!

I am digging the heck out of this. A lovingly-designed calendar app replacement for the iPhone which interacts with your existing calendars, so all the lovely syncing goodness of iOS keeps on working.

Beautiful social news gathering tool for iPad. Feeds are “curated” using Twitter lists, giving buttloads of flexibility. (Sadly the social part is buggered at the moment, as they didn’t account for all the iPad users out there)

Unrelated: New goal in life: Create a product that is cool, then get Adam Lisagor to make the promo video.

Super-simple typeface designer for iPad. Touch interface to sketch your font, then it uploads it to a website for sharing.

Outstandingly enjoyable iPhone game — like Geometry Wars if it had been designed from the outset for the iPhone. Challenging, smart, funny, and rewarding.

Fab site-specific Chrome extension to improve Flickr. Lightbox view is super nice. (Bonus points for removing the “by Yahoo!” from the Flickr logo!)

Beautifully designed and implemented board game for iPhone. I’m still getting to grips with the strategy, but it’s rather fine.

Looking forward to this. Reeder on iPhone is the reason I switched back to using Google Reader for my RSS collation needs.

New diff viewer for OS X. Finally, a diff tool that can deal gracefully with changesets across multiple files!

The free game is not a lie! To encourage download of Steam, Valve is giving Portal away for free for the next two weeks. If you haven’t already played it, YOU HAVE NO EXCUSE NOT TO.

The fabulous Pomplamoose have compiled their outstanding cover versions into a new album. Many examples of cover versions being better than the originals, particularly their gorgeous take on “Single Ladies”.

This year’s mash-up-mega-mix. Amazing as ever!
