Ladies and gentleman, boys and girls, we have hit that time once again in the jailbreak cycle when we can all breathe a huge sigh of relief and raise a glass to the jailbreak producers while we overload their servers attempting to download the new and shiny utility that will provide our devices with freedom. Yes, that is right, I am indeed talking about downloading Absinthe 2.0, the latest version of the Chronic Dev Team tool that brings an untethered jailbreak to the majority of our iOS 5.1.1 devices.
In what comes off as a rather unusual and quirky move, Facebook has just released Facebook Camera for iOS. Aptly named, the app is essentially a standalone app that lets you manage and post photos on the social networking service. There's more to it than that, though; the service also offers 14 filters for you to "decorate" your photos with. In many ways, the app offers functionality that's very similar to that one prominent photo-sharing company they acquired last month for $1 billion. Now, I proceed, I just want to give Facebook credit for creating such a pleasantly-designed app; coming from a company that's notorious for terrible mobile apps, this is quite something.
In fast-paced world of tech we all know and love, we're forever looking for those killer apps that make everything just that little bit simpler.

To take the fun even further, Epic Games have pushed out an update for said title dubbed as “Vault of Tears”.
In terms of technology giants and famous names from the web of old, they don't really come any bigger or more well-known that Yahoo!. Once upon a time, the company was pretty much at the forefront of everything that happened, and at that time when the internet was growing and becoming an emerging tool. However, in more recent times, the company has fallen behind its competitors such as Google and has been plagued by behind the scenes corporate issues.
With a handful of new camera apps now arriving for iOS on a daily basis, the onus is most certainly on developers to bring something a little new to the table each time. Social plug-ins and filter effects have been implemented to the maximum, so in order to offer iPhone users a feature less prevalent, Macadamia Apps has put together a nifty number called StillShot.
When asked to look something up online, more often then not, you'll be told to "Google it," such is the prowess of the web company in the search department. Although Bing has a stronghold over in China, the Big G's search engine is the one consulted by most when the power of the internet's sparse knowledge comes to call.
Whew, that took a long time! It was always inevitable that Microsoft was going to bring its famed Office Suite to mobile devices, since it's too lucrative a market to miss. Still, the Redmond-based Windows maker is now said to be finally working on ports for tablets on both iOS and Android, a foreshadowing - we presume - to a Metro iteration in a future Windows 8 tablet.
