Voice Fantasy iPhone App
This is Voice Fantasy, and it has nothing to do with satisfying any sexual desire, honestly. The game is all about creating a character that is made by the power of your voice. There is a video at my Source so that you can see a scale that judges your tone and such. Once the

Eee PC 1015PN with Windows 7 Home Premium now shipping… in Germany
The Asus Eee PC 1015PN is one of the most powerful netbooks on the market today, if that’s not an oxymoron. Sure, it doesn’t come close to matching a notebook with a Core i-series CPU, but this 10 inch netbook has a dual core 1.5GHz Intel Atom N550 chip and the latest generation of NVIDIA ION graphics, which make it a tad faster than most Atom-powered netbooks. It’s also capable of handling 1080p HD video playback and some gaming.
There’s just one problem. The model that’s available in the US comes with Windows 7 Starter Edition — which requires you to reboot the computer every time you want to switch between NVIDIA ION and Intel dedicated graphics. You could just leave ION enabled all the time, but in my testing, the computer gets about 60 to 90 minutes of extra battery life when it’s using integrated graphics, so you kind of have to decide whether you value HD graphics or battery life more.
Or you can upgrade to Windows 7 Home Premium, which does support NVIDIA Optimus technology, which automatically shifts between the integrated and dedicated graphics depending on what you’re doing with the computer. If you’re just surfing the web, integrated graphics should do the trick. Want to watch an HD Flash video? ION graphics will kick in until it’s done and then switch back off.
Asus has started to offer the Eee PC 1015PN with Windows 7 Starter and support for automatic graphics switching in Germany. The laptop runs about 449 Euros with Windows 7 Home Premium. That’s about 70 Euros more than the laptop costs with Windows 7 Starter Edition.
I checked in with Asus North America today and I was told that the company has no plans to offer the netbook with Windows 7 Home Premium in this region because it would drive up the cost. So if you want automatic graphics switching, it looks like you’re going to have to upgrade the laptop yourself.

Itching Thumb for Android: WebOS Look-Alike
The app can become the default launcher, which lets it take over use of the Home button to trigger the graphical task manager. Apps currently running are displayed in a revolving carousel method, or a simple flat display can be set in the preferences. The carousel of apps can be swiped left or right to spin through running apps, and tapping on one brings that app to the forefront for use.
Itching Thumb uses gestures in a unique way to interact with apps. Swiping up on an app’s card closes it (like in webOS), and swiping down triggers a gesture editor to assign a gesture to that app. Once a gesture has been assigned to an app, drawing the gesture at the bottom of the Itching Thumb screen will fire up that app. It is simple and works well.
There are a lot of settings to configure Itching Thumb as desired, most of which control the look of the app carousel. I haven’t decided if Itching Thumb will remain as my full-time task manager, but it’s a fun diversion in the meantime.

Insanely awesome: this 58″ multitouch iPhone table is real
www.youtube.com/watch?v=TCbSwOgNzZg
If the iPad screen is still not big enough for ou, try this: a huge 58″ multitouch table that runs iOS. This table is actually connected with the iPhone. It is required to launch an app to connect the iPhone with the table. Then, users will be able to swipe, pinch and control anything on the table directly. Most people think this is real. This is insanely awesome to browse photos .
