Tea Time! Is a timer app that lets you know when your tea is done.

You simply select they type of tea, then how strong you want it, and finally what state it is in.

A temperature scale will appear at the bottom letting you know the recommended temperature that the water should be and then you tap on the “start timer” button to begin the timer.

When the timer is complete a bell alarm rings until you tap a button to stop it.

You can change between Celsius to Fahrenheit by tapping the “i” icon.

Meditate Now 2

Mobile Version


Pros:
-Professional voice & audio
-Easy interface to switch between audios

Cons:
-Photo in audio is hard to discern, if unfamiliar with technique.
-The info icon leaves the app unexpectedly

4/5


Meditate Now 2 is an application that contains a series of audio clips that capable of helping you alleviate stress and allow you to relax. The audio is narrated by Stin Hansen, whom is an extremely experienced speaker and an award wining meditation expert. Her voice is absolutely perfect for this type of application. Most of audios range from about nine minutes long to about 15 minutes long (with two exceptions being at three & five minutes)


The audios include:

(the following was paraphrased from the iTunes description)
-Be Grateful – Relax and feel more gratitude in your life
-Anchor your Spirit – bring substance to your life
-Breathe It Out – breath meditation that is perfect for anxiety and feelings of panic
-End Pain – bring relief to arthritis, labor, chronic, and surgery pains
-Your Best Self – Connect with your full potential and move beyond daily concerns with the meditation
-Serenity Prayer Meditation – recited at a time of trouble. Used in recovering alcoholics and addicts.
-Center Your Chakras – Center and align your energy centers
-Emotional Acupuncture – for emotional emergencies (also utilities a picture to show you how)

I also found that Stin offers a free podcast through the iTunes store. So if you are hesitant to get his application, you can always check out her podcast. I definitely recommend this app to anyone that listens to audios for meditation. While the ‘Emotional Acupuncture’ audio displays a picture, it is a little hard to understand what it is exactly saying to do. To alleviate this, it would be nice to have only certain parts of the picture visible that relate and change with the audio.

webapps-finder-screenshotPrice: Free (link to App Store)

If you were around for the first iPhone, you remember that everything that Apple didn’t provide came in the form of a web app.  And they were pretty awful.  And then the App Store cometh from Apple.  And it was good.  All of a sudden, web apps were a thing of the past.  Why would we need to be limited by apps of the web when we could have apps of the store?

Well, we all turned our backs on the poor little web apps, but some of those gangly teenagers grew up to be hot.  And WebApps Finder is sort of like the “where are they now” to our yearbook.  Seriously, have you checked out some of these new and improved web apps?  It’s worth it.

WebApps Finder provides an App Store-ish interface that features some web apps while providing categorical listings for the others.  

Know of any good web apps?  Leave them in the comments.

yahoo-inquisitor-iphone-screenshotPrice: Free (link to App Store)

Inquisitor for iPhone — a new app from Yahoo! — searches.  Easily.  As much as I hate to admit that any search other than one that rhyme’s with “oogle” is valid, Yahoo’s release of Inquisitor for iPhone is really easy.

The application uses suggested keywords, similar to a normal, web-based Yahoo search, which is really handy on a mobile device like the iPhone.  The app also acts as a “search-enhanced browser,” with the destination site loaded within the application itself.  You can then go back to alter a search term or look at a different result.

You should definitely check this one out to see how you like the user interface compared to Google Search App for iPhone.

TED Conference App for iPhone – Free

The TED Conference (Technology, Entertainment and Design) is truly a gathering place of great ideas. Attendance to this annual conference is basically by invitation only and features a series of talks by some of the leading thinkers, creators and innovators. Basically, this is the conference I dream to attend!

For years, none of the TED Talks were ever shown outside the conference, but that changed a few years ago, with the addition of the TED videos on their website as well as on iTunes.

Now, you can get them on your iPhone or iPod Touch with the TED App for iPhone. If you are stuck at the airport or on a bus, you can feed your brain. The videos are good quality on both wifi and 3g.

Amazon Kindle for iPhone App screenshotPrice : FREE (link to App Store)

Amazon released the Kindle for iPhone app this week, and it is free!  This is fairly surprising since the Amazon Kindle 2 just started shipping within the past few days or so.  This free app allows you to sync any Kindle purchases from your Amazon online account with the iPhone app.

Amazon claims they have over 240,000 different titles available for immediate download to your Amazon Kindle for iPhone app, with most books available for $9.99.

What do you think about the difference between the Amazon Kindle and the Kindle iPhone app?
