Flight Control

The absolute best iPhone app on the market right now has got to be Firemint’s FlightControl. You are an air-traffic controller tasked with routing planes (and helicopters) to the correct landing strip at one of three different airports.

CableDrops FTW!

  • General Stuff
    • Crush the Castle is an awesome Flash game. You will become addicted. (Luckily you’ll also quickly finish the whole game, so it’s not that bad.)
    • The vendor/client relationship is often quite funny.
    • I need to get about two dozen of these kick-ass CableDrops. (Or you could buy me some for my birthday!)
    • The black Crocs Santa Cruz loafer is quite possibly the most comfortable shoe I’ve ever owned. I bought a pair in Maui to wear on the beach, but I’ve been wearing them to work lately because they’re so great. I like them so much I might just buy another pair in a different color.
    • I’m GatorDavid on the World Golf Tour if anyone wants to challenge me. That game is like crack.
    • Sure, sure… explosionsandboobs.com is a lot of fun. But have you seen explosionsandbobs.com?
    • Anything is possible at zombo.com!
  • Techie Stuff
    • jqPlot: Pure Javascript plotting
    • WPTouch is a WordPress plugin that will easily skin your blog for the iPhone. It’s pretty sweet.

iTunes Tuesday: Beatles and Bob

If you put a gun to my head and forced me to pick my favorite band, I’d have to go with The Beatles. (You could just ask me, though. What’s with the gun? Chill out, psycho.) I have — as far as I know — every track they ever recorded, and it’s not a stretch

A few years ago I was trying to determine what cocktails I could make with the alcohol I had at home. I searched the App Store but couldn't find an app that would let me do that, so I built one.
