LittleSnapper Arrives for IPhone
Last December, Realmac Software launched LittleSnapper, an iPhoto-like utility for snapping, organizing, and sharing screenshots. If you don't always have a Mac available with which to get snapping, though, LittleSnapper is now available in a convenient travel size for iPhone and iPod touch. LittleSnapper for iPhone--maybe they should have called it "LittlerSnapper"--brings the most essential features of its big brother to the iPhone OS. You can use the iPhone's camera to snap a photo, pull a photo from your device's library, or capture a Web page via the program's built-in browser. You can then add a title, description, rating, tags, and specify a photo type (screenshot, websnap, illustration, etc.) to your images, then share them to QuickSnapper, Realmac Software's image hosting and sharing service, or Twitter.

Spb Mobile Shell 3.0 accounts for two different smartphone use scenarios: at work and at play. The application offers distinctive 'professional' and 'lifestyle' desktops, integration of picture contacts with Facebook, account-sensitive email indicators, handsome time and weather screens, widgets, responsive kinetic scrolling, signature 3D animation engine, and other appealing assets that change the way a Windows phone is used altogether.

Touchscreen Protection with a Conscience for iPhone, BlackBerry and others!
