Week 2 of the new feature, here’s my top 5 from last week:
1) Acorn 2: Every time I open this app, I’m struck by how much the interface has improved and how enjoyable it is to use.
And while I can’t photoshop my way out of a wet paper bag, I’ve heard enough horror stories from the pro’s to believe that a lot of people could save themselves some pain by using a smaller tool like Acorn for various tasks.
2) Tweetie 2: I’ve been using the app since the Loren pushed out the beta, but it was only last week that I noticed you can flick scroll through maximized tweets (timeline, replies or DM’s).
It’s the little things.
3) Alela Diane (iTunes link): Maybe it’s just a fact of getting old, but my musical tastes are definitely changing. Perhaps expanding is a better word. Folk music such as this, or what iTunes classifies as Singer/Songwriter genre, is becoming a big part of my music library.
4) Shortwave: this is old news, but if you want a nice fast way to search items from within your browser, Shortwave from Shaun Inman gives you a great list of default options.
5) YouVersion: the most well designed Bible study app I’ve come across on the web. Also comes with an amazing, free iPhone app.
