The saga of the booming iPhone App Store continues with a stream of new apps for use on the world's favorite smartphone (according to surveys) pouring out every day. Here are some of the latest and greatest:
Plank: A first in iPhone gaming, playing this puzzle game is based exclusively upon the iPhone accelerometer (the device's movement detector that, among other things, switches between scenery and portrait view when you tilt the phone). A different type of marble game, Plank includes movement controls like tilting and shaking the device.
Slifter: A local stock hunt tool for iPhone-using consumers across the country. Users can share promotions and prices and hunt more than 350 million products from over 200,000 sell stores. It allows you to hunt availability in local store inventories, sort searches by distance or price, view stock images and maps to the stores.
Radiolicious: And while we're on the field of localization (as it is, after all, the hunt rage of the advent age), this agenda helps iPhone users to listen to local radio stations straight through their iPhones.
As well as the above listed iPhone Apps, one that cannot be ignored is Google Maps.
Check this out - just after Google released its Google Android mobile operating system, a new contender in the so-far ineffective race to top the iPhone, Goolge makes one of its most favorite offerings ready for use on its new important competitor's device.
The offering: GoogleEarth. And the latest platform supporting it: the iPhone. In a classic case of two great tastes tasting great together, Apple devotees users can now access GoogleEarth from their iPhones as well as their iPod Touches, downloadable straight through the iTunes Store.
GoogleEarth is the revered 3D geospatial mapping tool that superimposes aerial photography and satellite imagery to come up with the most accurate, interactive, and localized mapping tool ready to date.
One highlight that the iPhone brings to GoogleEarth is its deft and dexterous multi-touch interface, making interaction with the favorite agenda even easier than ever.
The funniest part of all this? GoogleEarth has yet to be made ready on the Htc G1, the first Google Phone. How backwards is that?
