“According to 148Apps’ App Store metrics, not only the delay is slowly reducing, but it reached a new low this November. Having an app approved in November took only 4 days on average and that is with 376 apps per day being submitted.”
I guess Apple has read some blogs this year.
If you’ve been wondering why I chose to redesign MacStories a few months ago, that’s because I wanted my blog to look (of course) better but most of all, I wanted it to look like my real desk. A pencil, papers all around, a mouse, some coffee. I should have added even more coffee maybe, but still. Anyway, I stumbled upon this little nice application called “My Desk”, which basically puts a virtual wooden desk on your iPhone, with the addition of some features like Twitter and to-do management. Is it really good?
Find out after the jump.
Nice script.
Reportage is an awesome and unique Twitter client for iPhone which takes a brand new approach to mobile tweeting. As I wrote in my review back in November “Reportage rather than give you a list of unread Twitter updates, lets you “listen” to your Twitter followers as if they were radio stations” and “It’s different from any Twitter client you’ve tried, has a stunning UI (that kind of UI I wish Tweetie 2 will have someday) and it’s smooth”.
The application has just been updated to the long awaited 1.5 version, which brings many new interesting stuff: built-in browser, Instapaper support, old style / new style retweets, geolocation and many refinements and bug fixes. Also, it’s priced $1.99 now!
WhereCloud gave me 5 promo codes to giveaway to celebrate the 1.5 update. Details after the jump!
A few months ago I stumbled upon this new browser for Mac called Stainless and I immediately realized the developers had big plans for it. The browser was fast, stable, it featured a simple and uncluttered UI and some good features which made it stand out from the crowd. I really appreciated the “tabs as single processes” thing, inspired by Google Chrome.
But now that Chrome is out on the Mac as well and Mozilla is working hard on the next version of Firefox (the much anticipated 4.0 version that will hopefully refresh the whole interface) is Stainless still the new kid on the block of Mac browsers worth a look, or is it just a geek alternative to Safari, Chrome, whatever? Could it be your new default browser?
I recently had this problem and this guide was extremely helpful to help me solve it.
Pretty good list, but I wonder if anybody paid something to actually made it into that list. I mean - Flight Control, Best Camera and Taxi Magic?
Yeah, best apps of the year.
So,you bought a Mac and you think you’ll never have to mess with caches, logs and disk space wasting space anymore, right? Well, this is wrong. You should know, in fact, that your Mac will store these kinds of files overtime, and these files will start wasting a lot of of your hard drive if you don’t use a 3rd party cleaning software, or just do it manually. That’s why apps such CleanMyMac exist. Today another similar app has been released, it’s called Purity, it’s created by Tim Parnell (one of the devs of Tinygrab) and it’s amazingly simple.
