Simon Maddox strikes again! One of Europe’s most prolific iPhone (and Android) developers, the latest work from Mr Simon Maddox has hit the iPhone app store this evening. It’s a soundboard for Alexander the Meerkat called iSimples. Who? What? Yeah, unless you’re a regular viewer of television advertising in the UK, you probably aren’t going [...]

Bluesquare.com launches mobile web app
Kudos to the Bluesquare Betting team who, capitalising on the fact that they now process 10% of their bets via mobile (as apposed to only 3% back in early 2009), decided to launch a dedicated mobile web app for iPhone.

Nosey Parker helps you find car parks
Here’s another application that’s a piece of genius. I simply love applications that really do help with the challenges and frustrations of day-to-day life. A friend of mine drives up and down the UK every week meeting businesses. One of the biggest arses she has to deal with is finding and locating public car parks [...]
