Quirky Word Search LogoI am a huge fan of word search games. I am a little embarrassed to admit it, but I even like them more than crossword puzzle games. It’s because you don’t have to think, you just have to look. When I was in college, I loved doing word searches to turn my brain off for a while when I was studying. Quirky Word Search may make your brain work a little bit more, but it is still a fun way to pass the time when you are bored.

The game is simple. Find the words that are hidden amongst the many letters on the grid. The complexity comes with trying to find words when the letters are upside-down, and backward. How do you know if that is an “M” or a “W”?

robinjacobLast fall, Samsung won a patent lawsuit appeal against Apple in the UK. The judge in the case ordered Apple to make a public apology by taking out an add in British newspapers and was told to add information regarding to ruling to their website.

Apple complied, but only barely. In fact, the company went out of their way to hide the apology and Judge Sir Robin Jacob accused the company of including information in the website link that was incorrect and untrue and made them rewrite the apology and move the link to the front page of their website where it can easily be seen; a harsh sentence and unusual, too.

spunkSpunk and Moxie is a fun and unique platformer that stars a couple of piles of goo grown in a secret lab by an evil scientist. The scientist was developing a formula to give himself extreme athletic powers and that formula mutated into the gooey duo known as Spunk and Moxie.

The two goos are filled with energy and will bounce endlessly through the level. You can control their jumping, but Spunk and Moxie will zip through each stage on their own, meaning all you can try to do is corral them into the right direction to complete a level. Read More »

iPadlifeskillfeatWe’ve all seen the story about using the iPad as a motivator to toilet train a child, which elicits some well-deserved eye rolls from parents, but anyone who is skeptical about the iPad’s ability to help a child learn to manage money and chores, tie his shoes, brush his teeth, or clean his room should think again. Plus, you don’t have to bring a tablet computer worth hundreds of dollars into the bathroom.

What are your favorite life skill apps for kids? Among the many expected suggestions, I’ve got one unorthodox entry — Minecraft Pocket Edition. Read more about it after the break.

RR3

EA Games has finally launched the much-anticipated Real Racing 3 for iPad. It is better looking than its two predecessors and, at a download price of free, is potentially the most expensive game in the trilogy.

Real Racing revolutionized mobile gaming by being the first game in its class graphically. Not only was it beautiful to look at, it was also fun to play. The follow up, Real Racing 2, was just as fun and had even more improved graphics. Now that the new iPad has a Retina display screen and a processor that is at least twice as fast as the third-generation model, the game developers at EA have maxed out the tablets performance.

AirTurn BT-105The iPad has revolutionized a lot of things about the way people write, play, and record music. Last week, we told you about IK Multimedia’s new iLectric Piano, which turns any MIDI capable device into a vintage electric piano from two or three decades ago. This week, we found a device that revolutionizes the way you read music.

The iPad lets you take your music mobile. It lets you build a recording studio on the move. It even lets you turn your creation into a visual art performance. Some musicians will tell you that the iPad has made it easy for them to bring all of their sheet music with them wherever they go without lugging around 15 different songbooks.

kickstartbattAnthony Vilgiate travels 200 nights a year for business, which means the man spends a lot of time fighting for precious electrical outlet space in airport terminals. To keep his iPad and other gadgets charged up and ready to go, he invented a range of ultra-high capacity batteries which are all about the size of an iPhone. His product is so new that Vilgiate has yet to formally name it, but iPad-toting business travelers can get their hands on one of his units on Kickstarter, where the project has blown out its funding goal.

tweetbotpiracyJailbreaking iDevices has become quite popular, as evidenced by the download rate of the recently released evasi0n jailbreak. The newest jailbreak was installed on more than seven million devices just four days after it came out.

While jailbreaking proponents often explain that they jailbreak their iOS devices for greater customizability (and there are quite a few high quality apps available only for jailbroken devices), there is no denying that jailbreaking is often done to obtain pirated versions of apps. You may not know this, but developers can tell when their apps have been illicitly obtained, and oftentimes, it can cause quite a loss in revenue.
