The Top Ten [TechKnowledgey Ep.2 S.2]

// July 19th, 2010 // No Comments » // Apple, Electronics, Entertainment, Fun, Gadgets, Tech, TechKnowledgey

Join Devir and Avi as they review the top ten apps in the Apple App Store in just this ONE EPISODE!

“Naturally, one of the first places people look for ideas on purchases is the top 10 list. But the way apple has the top 10 work is by the most purchased, not actually the best. And so one day I had the idea to download all of them, so I could, review them all, and maybe even rearrange them for you into the correct actual order of not most purchased, but which are actually the best – and so, with the help of my buddy Avi, that is just what I did.”

Some iPad Doodles

// May 28th, 2010 // No Comments » // Apple, Electronics, Entertainment, Fun, Media, Photos, Reviews, Software, Tech, iPad

One of the first apps for the iPad that I downloaded was Adobe’s Ideas. It’s a drawing app that I only took a glance at when I first downloaded it. After a few long car rides recently though, I realized that there is really some great power to the app and that I could create some pretty cool doodles. Take a look:

If you’re wondering what exactly I was thinking when I drew those, I couldn’t tell you. I honestly don’t know myself (and certainly neither does my sister – which I extrapolated, by the way, due to her snide remarks as I sketched). But what I can tell you is that I always sort of liked drawing, and the features that this app gives you are really great. You can switch up colors on the fly from a full color palette (although as of now there is no easy way to go back to a previous one), you can zoom in REALLY close to do all the detail work, it’s a pretty slick app for drawing. I’d go download it if you have an iPad and don’t already have the app. And yes, it’s free.

So why am I sharing all of this with you? No clue.

Pocket This Camera

// May 24th, 2010 // No Comments » // Gadgets, Hardware, How To, Media, Reviews, Software, Tech, TechKnowledgey, Video

Nowadays, everyone wants a simple, easy to use, pocket sized, and yet superior HD video camera. Unfortunately, because of that, many companies have created quite an array of pocket camcorders to choose from. Thankfully, Devir was able to narrow it down to just the four best (all of which are great choices), and then seems to have a way with them to get them to talk, and explain themselves as to which one, specifically, is right for you.
