Unless you've been living under a rock, or perhaps an oversized Android phone, the chances are you know that both Samsung and Apple have been at each other's throats for some time now, with both claiming and counter-claiming all kinds of weird and wonderful things.
The jailbreak community presents the perfect opportunity for developers to plug the holes which exist with each and every iOS release. Apple's fifth iteration of its mobile operating system has brought forth some great new features, but there is, and always will be, room for improvement.
Social networking is an integral part of many of our lives. From Facebook to Flickr, most smartphone users are logging in, posting content and interacting with each other.
