For a lot of people, the ability to totally change the way an iDevice looks is the primary motivator behind performing a jailbreak. If you are new to the jailbreak or themes concept, by installing Cydia on the device, users can download an almost endless string of themes for use with the WinterBoard application which allows total customization of the iDevice.
I don't know about the rest of you, but I personally have a deep rooted inquisitive nature which makes me want to know what is going on in the world around me. I have a need and a thirst for knowledge, and because I have a passion for technology, I love to see the manufacturing process behind things. One of my favorite television shows which is aired daily in the United Kingdom via satellite TV is 'How it's Made' and basically goes through the full process about how everyday products are produced which is like some kind of heaven to me.

For anyone who regularly opens up Cydia and refreshes the repositories to see the most recent additions and available updates, it won’t come as a surprise that each day seems to bring a new Siri-based tweak or enhancement. When the iPhone 4S was launched, Siri was one of the driving forces behind said device, making it such a consumer success and helped Apple to announce record first day sales, as well as posting record breaking financials for the final quarter of 2011.
What kind of world would we live in without gravity? A phenomenon defined as a force by Sir Isaac Newton, something which attracts all objects to other objects, with Albert Einstein chipping in with his theory that gravity is the result of the curvature of space-time. These two theories are the most widely accepted, and although we may never get a fully complete explanation of what gravity actually is, we all know it's a pretty awesome phenomenon nonetheless.
Even though kids as young as three can now be spotted using iPads and whatnot to entertain themselves, this hasn't always been the case for younger generation.
One of the most talked about Cydia tweaks so far in 2012 has to be the fabulous Zeppelin modification by developer Alex Zielenski, which offers users the ability to not only set a custom image to display in place of the carrier name, but also to easily create and add their own logos of whatever they desire.
