These are the apps that people may not know about, and/or are the ones I consider to be “best in class” at what they do.
- WhatsOn – TV Listings. Allows you to set up various locations, configuring the channels shown in each,and allows you to set shows as favorites so you get a nice list of what’s airing. Makes it really easy to find the channel number.
- Paper Toss – Free game where you throw a wadded up paper into an office waste basket. watch out, because there’s a small fan that’s will blow the paper in one or direction or the other. They also make
- Ragdoll Blast – puzzle game where you blast ragdolls out of a cannon trying to hit a target, but there are obstacles in the way, such as walls, or sticks that need to be blasted out of the way.
- Tweetie is my favorite twitter app, but I’m checking out TweetDeck’s iPhone version. it has the concept of “columns” that you swipe left or right to get to, and the columns can be your timeline, DMs, mentions, or searches.
- iTrans NJT Straightforward train schedules for NJ Transit.
- Crosswords – Guess.
Best interface and downloading of puzzles - Now Playing – Movie times, with Netflix if you want it. Seems comprehensive but I use…
- iPhlix Netflix management. Multiple queues, and instead of loading a whole queue, it offers to load 25 at a time. Also lets you default to Search view for quick searching.
- MovieStar – Did you know there’s a IMDb app? I didn’t know until about a week ago. it’s not official but it’s pretty good.
