Ember is a great Campfire application Federico and I occasionally use when we’re mobile. Jason Fried must have thought it was so great, it was worth buying the app from Overcommitted, then making it available for free on the iTunes App Store.
You can download the Campfire app (renamed) at this link. If you have a Campfire client and you’re interested in the mobile app, you can read our original review of Ember here.

“Look how far we’ve come”, the folks over at AppAdvice say. And they’re right: this video perfectly shows how many things have indeed changed in these three years of iPhone, from the original one (the “2G”) to the latest iPhone 4.
Check out the video below. Try not to be nostalgic.
Another interesting update just showed up on iTunes: Osfoora, for Twitter (the iPhone version) has been updated to the 1.5 version, which introduces support for the Retina Display, a better geo-tagging and lots of bug fixes.
We previously reviewed Osfoora for iPhone here (but it’s got a lot better since then) and Osfoora HD for iPad here. I’m currently using Osfoora on my iPad but Twitterrific on the iPhone. Could this new update make me switch again? We’ll see.
Osfoora, for Twitter is available at $2.99 in the App Store.
UPDATE: Roger Byrne (@imrogb) reports that if you’re still running iPhone OS 3.1.x (it seems like he’s running 3.1.2) Osfoora won’t work. A bug? Maybe. If you experience it, please report to @Osfoora.
I’ll admit that while playing SNES games on your iPad or iPhone might be pretty cool, it’s near impossible to virtually replicate the use of the left and right bumpers on screen. Thanks to CP Design, they’ve finally created the iPhone gamepad we’ve been waiting for: one that actually has bumpers.
A Reeder for iPhone update in iTunes is always big news. But when everyone’s favorite client gets Retina Display support and a redesigned icon…well, that is huge news.
That’s right, the latest 2.1 update of Reeder introduces full support for the new iPhone 4 display, a shinier icon, some iOS 4 bug fixes. No new features, but I guess it’s ok for now, right? With that screen, Reeder is perfect.
As usual, you can go download the app for $2.99 here.
Apple and related smartphone manufacturers probably aren’t happy with this one. The Library of Congress has announced new anti-circumvention exceptions to the DMCA policies that legally allow people to jailbreak or root their phones.
Today I have designated six classes of works. Persons who circumvent access controls in order to engage in noninfringing uses of works in these six classes will not be subject to the statutory prohibition against circumvention.
Computer programs that enable wireless telephone handsets to execute software applications, where circumvention is accomplished for the sole purpose of enabling interoperability of such applications, when they have been lawfully obtained, with computer programs on the telephone handset.

If CIMM is reading this right now, I’d love to be a part of this focus group. With a million available for funding, CIMM (a research initiative formed by TV networks and advertising agencies) plans to hire the Media Behavior Institute to study 1,000 iPhone loving users to research what they’re viewing, who they’re with (what kind of cliques do iPhone peeps hang out in), and if they were multitasking.
Most importantly if you’re one of the lucky 1,000 participants, you get to play with a free iPhone.

I’m still waiting for someone to one-up the whole iPad iDish thing, but this comes pretty close. We’ve learned that eating off of gadgets can be a pretty sensual experience, but sometimes our techno-lust can lead to unpredictable cravings that can only be solved by bacon. If the thought of a Retina Display infused in your morning slice of bacon doesn’t excite those tingling taste buds, then just wait until you see what Japan has in store for us this time.
Audiobox.fm is a great online music service I reviewed a while ago while it was in its early stages of development. The developers are based in Italy, and this - compared to the fact that the service was very promising - couldn’t make me happier. During these months the developers have been working hard on improving the reliability, UI and accessibility of the app, and it shows. It’s almost a new webapp, with a redesigned dashboard interface and lots of more options, plans and extra apps.
Among these apps the iPhone client, which has been approved by Apple and it’s now available for free in the App Store.
