We have this friend, Cristina. She rocks. On nights out, we know to just hand her the check and she'll take care of informing us how much we each owe. Usually we're in a bit of a drunken stupor and doing math is about as appealing as, well, doing math. Thanks to Billr for iPhone, you can have your own portable Cristina ... continue reading
Spotify has single-handedly changed the way we digest music. We love Grooveshark because the annoying IT guy won't let us install anything on our computers, and it's great for making Mixtapes, but it won't work on our iDevices. With Spotify you don't have to worry about syncing your iPhone or your iPad. You don't have ... continue reading
For a no-frills flask that's perfect to toss in your bag when you're out camping or exploring, turn to Stanley. The classic brand has been crafting solid, well-made food and drink gear since 1913. Their latest flask is the first in the Adventure Series which is aimed at being both essential and rugged. With more grip ... continue reading
Every post we put on Facebook we expect to be received with fanfare, perhaps a parade and more likes than the social network can handle. What we usually get is "a" like and "a" dead iPhone battery from checking to see if we got any comments. Still, we can't help but be curious what our Klout score is, and to find out, ... continue reading
There's no denying the fact that stop-motion animations are awesome. It doesn't matter if you're working with the stick figure on the pack of Post-Its or something more cinematic, they're fun to create and even more fun to watch. If you're looking to jump start a career in stop-motion movies, or just looking to have ... continue reading
Your car might do 0-60 in the double-digits, but now at least it won't sound like a quiet washing machine when it attempts to do so. With the XLR8 app, your ride can sound like a Ferrari, a GT40, a classic muscle car or another far manly automobile than the one you bought for the "fantastic gas mileage." (Via Mashable)
We spend way too much money on apps for our iPhones. It's so hard to say no when something only costs $1, and it's even more difficult when the app you're considering is basically an encyclopedia of craft beer. The Craft Beer App has (deep breath): an enormous database of craft beer (from all 50 states), beer podcasts, ... continue reading
You've probably already heard of MAD Magazine. Everyone's favorite satirical magazine is now available like all your other favorite paper mags (GQ, Esquire, etc.)... on your iPad! Check out some of the goodies that MAD has to offer for free and buy individual issues or whole subscriptions right from the app. Now you ... continue reading
In the first 24 hours of Instagram's Android-based life, the app was downloaded a million times. A freakin' million. If you needed proof that the photo network wasn't just for retro filter loving hipsters, there you have it. (Or there's a lot more hipsters out there than we thought.) In our quest for finding new ... continue reading
The list of reasons to own an iPhone just got a little shorter because Instagram is finally available on Android. Instagram allows you to turn the quick shots you take with your phone into artsy photos with awesome filter effects. The app also makes it easier to share your photos on Facebook, Twitter, Tumblr, and Foursquare ... continue reading
We plan on releasing an app that ends in -gram sometime soon to piggyback off the success of Instagram and hope people think our apps are related. What will our app do? No clue. We don't even know how to make one. With this mindset, we are wary of any photo related "gram" app. Luckily, Cinemagram is quasi-addicting, ... continue reading
Pat LaFrieda is a man that knows his meat. Pat LaFrieda Wholesale Meat Purveyors has been in business since 1922 (it was originally co-founded by his grandfather) and supplies a lot of those restaurants in New York that are too pricey for most of us to ever attend. Point is, the butcher knows a thing or two about the ... continue reading
When Apple first rolled out the iPad, we immediately knew we'd be shelling out the extra cash for the 64 gig model. Sure, there was a very good chance that was far more storage than we'd need, but we were quite aware we'd be cramming that thing with a ton of videos. Letting that audio and video sit idly by is not ... continue reading
Darts has always struck us as an odd bar game. It's not because we don't like playing—we love to—but because sharp objects and alcohol don't seem to mesh. No time is this more evident then when you're walking over to the chalkboard to update the score and a dart comes inches from your face courtesy of your friend ... continue reading
Everyone says the iPad doesn't count as a computer because it's a content consumption device and not a content creation device. We say to hell with that. Download the Poly app and you can do in 10 minutes what it took Picasso a lifetime to master. Take that college art history professor.
The 80s are back in a big way. Vinyl is cool again. Casio made a huge comeback with their G-shock watches. Even the new music coming out these days has a decidedly 80s feel to it. The only thing we're really missing is the classic cassette tape. Mix tapes have never really been as cool as they were when they were on ... continue reading
