Bloapp – New Project (Bloggers’ Own App)
The project that I have talked in my previous post is Bloapp. It’s now live and all of you are welcome to use it :)
What’s Bloapp?
It’s a free tool for bloggers to create their own iPhone app for FREE. It supports self-hosted blogs, plus blogs that are hosted in these blogging platforms; Blogspot, Posterous, Tumblr, Weebly, Blogdrive and Tripod.
I have already created my iPhone app with Bloapp, here is how you can get it:
- Download the app from iTunes click here.
- Scan this QR code or search for my blog “Ades” and you are done! You can now read my blog in your iPhone.

Wunderlist – My Favorite To-Do List Manager
Wunderlist is my new favorite task manager tool. It is free, cross platform (Windows, Mac) and has mobile version (iPhone app) which makes it easy to sync your to-do lists between your PC and iPhone.
In a few weeks time, they are coming up with iPad, Android and Browser versions as mentioned in their blog post here.

Now one of my to do list is to upgrade my website hosting soon and gather all my sites together in on hosting plan. But the problem with this is that when the server goes down all of my sites goes down with it. Hmmm…
Facebook launches “Places”
Facebook launched Places, an extension to its iPhone application where people can post their location via Places to their Wall on FB. You can also tag your friends who are with you in the same place. Another feature of Places is, you can find friends who are nearby you. Seems like going to be interesting. Unfortunately it’s only available in US at the moment, in Malaysia you only see this blank screen to the right.
Places will directly compete with foursquare, another most popular location tagging application at the moment. Foursquare is not easy to beat though, since it has a competitive advantage; people can use foursqare to get discounts in restaurants, boutiques, shops etc, users also receive funny badges and become a mayor of the places…
It’s going to be interesting in the next few months, how these two apps will be competing with each other.

App costs just $2.99, much cheaper than the iPhone 4 investment :)

My Favorite iPhone Apps (Free)
AlJazeera English Live (News)
One of the best news apps around, it comes with live video streaming. Every morning 20 minutes of this app is enough for me to be up to date with current events. Best part is the videos are really watchable, you won’t experience any lagging with wi-fi and it auto adjusts the quality if you are viewing it in 3G.
