One of the more interesting aspects to reviewing and testing the massive amount of apps that come through the FeedMyApp doors these days is to spot the ones that could be the next Instagram or the next Pinterest. Most don't have a hope in hell of reaching that pinnacle but occasionally you come across an app with unique features and a social element that you know has a chance of reaching the top of the mountain. ClipClock is one of those apps. This video and photo sharing app for mobile not only let's you see and share the best videos ... Read more
So...hands up all of you who know what a jQuery Slider is. Yes, I thought so - not many of you unless you are a web designer. Well, I'll tell you then, shall I? Funnily enough, it is one of the most used elements of web design these days and is a great help to designers who want to display lots of content in a small space. The jQuery Slider Shock is capable of presenting both images and videos that are hosted locally or from external sources like RSS, YouTube, Hulu, Vimeo, Flickr, Twitter and Instagram and presents them in ...

I don't know why people freak out so much about zombies. I mean, they move so slowly that it would be quite easy to just sidestep them and then whack them through the head as they squeal for "brains...more brains" wouldn't it? The success of TV shows like "The Walking Dead" has put zombies firmly in the spotlight again though many of us grew up on movies like George Romero's "Night Of The Living Dead" so we know what it takes to defeat those flesh-eating monsters. So, what do you think you or your friends would look like if they ... Read more
I have a photographer friend who undertook a project a few years ago to take a picture every day that said something about his life and would post it every day on Facebook. Luckily, he was a pretty good photographer and he posted some some great photos that said as much about his work in the fashion industry as it did about his photographic stylings. Threadshare takes that concept one step further with this free dedicated photoshare app for iPhone that is all about fashion but takes it social. Get dressed up, snap a photo, warp it to your own ...

There's a certain disgraced ex politician named Anthony Weiner who would probably still have his job if he had an application like Private ME on his iPhone. You might remember that Mr Weiner shared some rather racy photos with about 40,000 of his supporters last year. Now, if he had this photo self censoring application on his mobile he could have sent his pictures with his face obscured which might have protected both his dignity and his privacy. Now, that wasn't the only mistake Mr Weiner made that night and Private ME would have helped him there, too, because this ... Read more
Judging by my Facebook feeds of late, it would appear that the latest fad in photo presentation has changed from Instagram to multi-Instagram with frames. I'm sure most regular Facebook users would agree that their friends' are serving up 2, 3 or 4 photos and turning them into collages that make them look like film posters. Well, maybe that's a bit of a stretch but you know what I mean. Nostalgio is a very cool free photo application for iOS that features a whole bunch of templates for creating photo collages, borders and filters to sparkle-up your social media feeds. ... Read more
Developers' IT-Effects might not realize it but they might well have produced an app here that will be of great benefit to small children and the disabled. V.I.P. is a photo application that works on the voice control concept and delivers an interactive slide show of pictures from the net. And with mobile iDevices like the iPhone, iPod Touch and the very user friendly IPad the norm these days, V.I.P. proves itself to be a perfect way for the very young or the physically disadvantaged to have control of their slideshows. On the other hand, if the rest of us ... Read more
There had to be a better thing to be done with your iPhone camera than taking random films of your friends being silly or shaky long shots of your favorite band. Cineverse is a creative movie-making app that lets you film a short movie on your iPhone, add captions, images and text to it along with character photos of your friends. Create a title and end credits and you've got yourself something far more amusing than a film of your friend stuffing a whole burger into his mouth, don't you think? Cineverse is a movie-making video application where you ... Read more
So have you ever built your own website or even thought about putting one together? Website builders often offer huge, complicated behemoths of design that are not only hard to create but also cost a fair amount of money. Quite often they are so complicated that you end up hiring a professional design team to do it for you. This is fine for big business but, if you are a small business or a creative professional, that's often not an option. Plebu is a 'software as a service' web design and website creator that makes it easy and cheap to ... Read more
There are several different reasons why it is wise to add some sort of a site map or on-page guidance for your website. On the one hand, of course, there is the simple answer that visitors want to find what they are looking for easily and not to give them any reason to give up in frustration and go elsewhere. This streamlining of your information is the sort of thing that turns trial customers into paying customers. But there's also the matter of your call-center costs and customer support to take into consideration. Improving the traffic flow through your site ... Read more
