What Is The Deal With This Stupid Lighter iPhone App?

What Is The Deal With This Stupid Lighter iPhone App?

Smule has built in social and viral features that are helping this spread like mad, and they also give this ridiculous but effective incentive to use the app all the time. France and Japan are going absolutely crazy with users, which you can see quite clearly from the virtual globe and the screenshot to the right. With 69,000 downloads * .99 cents = US$68310
US$68310 - 30% Apple takes = $47,817

Beejive. instant messaging anywhere

I used instant messaging for poetry around the exchange of metaphors and similies. This was of course a relavent form of discourse to the MSN-Gen. The BeeJive developers are proud to offer 24/7 connectivity, meaning you can receive IMs even if the app is closed. They accomplish this feat by connecting you through their servers and sending you updates through email if you receive an IM while the application is closed.

First Look: Heart Monitor - The Unofficial Apple Weblog (TUAW)

This application can measure your heart rate using one of two methods. One way is to place the iPhone, microphone-down, on the bottom of your wrist, or chest — this method produced poor results.

The other method, which works well, is to use the standard Apple headset/mic combo and place the microphone portion on your neck. Both methods are sketchy in a noisy room, as Heart Monitor uses sound to detect your heart beat.
