When the iPhone first launched back in 2007, it came with a number of default apps that were bundled with the software we now know as iOS. Native Messages, Mail, Stocks and Calculator apps have all stood the test of time as Apple continue to iterate through firmware versions with each new device, but one of the more popular but less frequently discussed is the fantastic and visually appealing Weather app. If you are one of the many jailbroken iPhone or iPod touch owners running iOS 6.0 or above, you will be happy to know that the popular WeatherIcon tweak is now compatible with the latest firmware version.
Taking a screenshot in iOS is easy. Apple has offered the feature since day one, and as long as you can master the simultaneous pressing of the sleep and home buttons, a screen capture will automatically be deposited into your camera roll.

Learning to play a new instrument, particularly if you've never familiarized yourself with anything like it before, can be a little daunting. But the Web is a vast library of learning resources, and now, it only takes an Internet connection and access to a decent app, video or tutorial in order to get started. The very first thing one must master - particularly when using a stringed instrument - is tuning; and although it can be a tricky process, it's also essential for getting a good feel of the instrument.

I guess that must mean that the Carla theme for jailbroken iOS devices is one of those stand out creations that makes the grade.
