Gelato Mania - Sunday Funday 1

Gelato Mania is free in the App Store for iPhone only.

Though the game is free there are a few paid upgrades which include…

• $0.99-$4.99 buys you 5 - 50 “recipes” which are walk throughs
• $9.99 unlocks all levels (Which you can do for free by beating the levels)
• $0.99 removes ads which is AWESOME

How To Play:

It’s a simple puzzle game where you have to match up the gelato to the one in the example picture. You use tools and colors in the right order to make your gelato perfect. The faster you do it and the less moves you use will get you more points! 

Sonar - Social Saturdays 1

This is my review of Sonar which is free in the App Store for iPhone only.

Sonar is an app that tells you how you are connected to people that have checked in near you via FourSquare. It tells you how you may know that person by showing you your connections with them through FaceBook and Twitter. 

This app is best used in big party situations where you are trying to remember how you know people or you want to strike up a conversation with someone. 

This app does have a small creep factor when being used out in the wild. Especially if some pervo guy uses it as an excuse to talk to you LOL Though it does have a great out in the wild use if you are trying to remember how you know someone. 

Of course all people playing must be checking in to FourSquare to use it and probably should be on at least FaceBook or Twitter.

Snap Seed Review! Creative Thinking Thursdays Episode 1!

This is my review of SnapSeed which is available in the App Store for the iPhone and iPad for $4.99 and you only have to buy it once for both the iPad and iPhone optimized copy.

In this video I show you have to change the contrast and brightness of the overall picture as well as changing the brightness in specific areas of your photo. 

I also show you how to crop and rotate the picture. 

I show you how to utilize the center focus function to focus your photos after the fact.

I explore the many filters this app has to offer even though it seems to only have a few you can alter them by touching the  ☆ —> ★  and/or the texture editor (which looks like a checker board) then swiping right and left to change the saturation.

There are frames… which I am unimpressed by.
