Wes' iPhone Applications of the week:
  • Driving Test - teaches the material and simulates the written driving test and at the end presents you a detailed score which you can e-mail yourself. Works for multiple states, but Mark is skeptical because driving laws can be different.

  • iChess - Play against the iPhone computer or a second player.

Mark's iPhone Application of the week:
  • Waze - free, 100% user-generated, social navigation app that allows drivers to build and use live maps & real-time traffic updates to improve their daily commute.

Mark and Wes at Bo's Barbeque in Lafayette, CA until the wasps and loud band-with-no-banjo forced us out, and then we went to a Starbucks.

Sites of Interest:

Wes' iPhone Applications of the week:
  • Flickr - shoot, upload and share photos & videos, geo-tag your photos or add them to a set. View your photos by set and tag.  (Marked mentioned Google's Picasa software and service.)

  • craigsphone - Craigslist viewer for iPhone 3.0 and above only!  (Will crash on older OS.)

Mark's iPhone Applications of the week:
  • C64 - Commodore 64 emulator along with 5 games.  This is pulled from the app store at the moment, but hopefully will be back.

  • I Am T-Pain - gives you Auto-Tune in the palm of your hand, using the same Antares audio technology T-Pain himself uses in the studio to record his music.
