FREE for today only!

오늘은 총 8개의 어플을 소개하겠다. 먼저 TweetTheBeat는 이름에서 알 수 있듯이 현재 듣고 있는 노래를 트위터(Twitter)에 올려주는 어플이다. 음악을 웹 상에서 바로 공유하고 트위터에 링크가 된다면 더 좋을 것 같은데 이렇게 동작하지는 않는다. 현재 듣고 있는 음악의 정보가 트윗(Tweet)되며 음악은 전자우편을 통해 공유할 수 있도록 하고 있다. 평상시 1불에 판매되는 어플이지만 제한된 시간 동안 무료로 제공된다.

BattleFleet Embedded는 다소 특한 게임이다. 먼저 바다 위의 배를 보여 주고 배를 감춘 뒤 배를 미사일로 맞추는 게임이다. 맞추면 Hit가 표시되며 맞추지 못하면 Miss 메시지가 출력된 뒤 배의 위치가 다시 표시된다. 평상시 2불에 판매되는 어플로 제한된 시간 동안 무료로 제공된다. Motionless Detector는 소방관이 위험한 장소에 가면 경고를 내주는 PASS 장치와 같은 알람 기능을 제공하는 어플이다. 평상시 1불에 판매되며 10월 12일까지 무료로 제공된다.

Knowllenge는 단어를 맞추는 게임이다. 단어에 관련이 있는 간단한 설명이 나오며 단어의 첫 글자가 출력된다. 이 첫글자를 보고 전체 단어를 맞추면 된다. 연습 모드와 경쟁 모드가 있다. 평상시 1불에 판매되는 어플이며, 제한된 기간 동안 무료로 제공된다. Nerd Workout도 평상시 1불에 판매되며 제한된 기간 동안 무료로 제공되는 어플이다. 어플을 실행한 뒤 아이팟 터치(iPod Touch)를 계속 흔들면 흔든 시간과 소모된 칼로리를 표시해 주는 어플이다.

TiltBox는 아이폰(iPhone)이나 아이팟 터치로 비트박스를 할 수 있는 어플이다. 아이폰이나 아이팟 터치를 다른 방향으로 돌리면 음악을 들을 수 있다. 또 녹음하는 것도 가능하기 때문에 이 음악을 이용해서 비트나 리듬을 만들 수 있다. 평상시 1불에 판매되는 어플로 제한된 시간 동안 무료로 제공된다. iBlipper는 아이폰이나 아이팟 터치를 포켓용 광고판으로 만들어 주는 어플이다. 평상시에는 1불에 판매되며 제한된 시간 동안 무료로 제공된다. iVerb는 는 10월 13일까지만 무료로 제공되는 1불짜리 어플로 동사에 대한 간한 뜻을 출력해 주는 어플이다.

BattleFleet Embedded 1.0(Games)[[iTunes][2]]

Price: $1.99 -> Free

Congratulations! You get BattleFleet Embedded for FREE! Download now 100% FREE for a limited time!

Try for FREE at iphonebattlefleet.com

Before there was an App Store, there was BattleFleet. And it was good. How good? At the time it was called "The best game for iPhone" by TUAW. Then Apple opened the App Store, and BattleFleet faded into iPhone folklore...

Until Now! Put on your Admiral's Hat (not the one from World of Warcraft, unless you must) and gear up, 'cause it's time for... BattleFleet Embedded!

BattleFleet is the game of "Hit or Miss!" played for generations in schoolyards on grid paper. You and your opponent secretly place 5 ships on a 10 x 10 grid: The Aircraft Carrier, the Battleship, the Destroyer, the Submarine, and the PT Boat. The players then take turns trying to sink each other's ships. If you miss, your turn ends. If you hit, you get to shoot again until you miss.

The game ends when one player runs out of bombs, or sinks all of the other player's ships.

All of your favorite fast-paced gameplay is here, including easter-eggs (wink, wink).

New in this version:

• Sleek new user interface.
• No internet connection required to play

Plus expanded game functionality in future updates.

-Have fun!

Note: If BattleFleet is unusually slow, reset your iPhone by holding down the power and home buttons simultaneously until your device restarts. That will clear any memory leaks that have accumulated on your iPhone or iPod Touch.

Motionless Detector - a PASS device clone 1.0(Utilities)[[iTunes][3]]

Price: $0.99 -> Free

Motionless Detector performs the same alarm function as the firefighter's PASS device. When a firefighter goes into a hazardous location, their PASS device will sound an alarm if they stop moving due to injury or incapacitation. This app should never be used for any official firefighting business but it is an educational tool that some may find interesting or useful to detect non-movement.

This app will be free until October 12th

THIS APP DOES NOT REPLACE AN ACTUAL PASS DEVICE IN ANY WAY. It's not loud enough and the iPhone shouldn't be used as a safety device. Also, actual PASS devices have radio components that transmit alarm information to other units.

Basically this app counts down to 0 from 15 and when it reaches 0 an alarm is sounded. To stop the alarm and reset the counter at any time, simply nudge the device. The 15 seconds is customizable up to 1 minute.

The uses of this app are quite limited but with several customizable preferences, it can be adapted to be a useful tool for measuring breaks during working out or a louder alarm for when the dryer is done. Unfortunately this is the only other use for this that I can think of other than to demonstrate how a PASS device works. It requires a device with an external speaker to properly operate.

If you find some use for this, have a question, comment, or concern please email me at gadgets@ericsalerno.com and I'll update this meta information. Motionless Detector - a PASS device clone

Nerd Workout 1.0(Healthcare & Fitness)[[iTunes][5]]

Price: $0.99 -> Free

ON SALE! FOR A LIMITED TIME GET IT FOR FREE!

Experts agree: Any exercise is better than none. With that in mind, we offer:

Nerd Workout

Designed by a nerd, for a nerd, the Nerd Workout combines two of your favorite things -- expensive personal electronics and a rapid back-and-forth hand motion -- into something you can get away with calling a workout.

The main reason sedentary people don't get more exercise is not laziness, poor self-discipline or genetic disadvantage. It's because they can't do it with one hand while sitting down. With these people in mind, Nerd Workout was designed for convenience and ease of use. Just fire it up and start your workout. What could be easier than that? I mean, besides not doing it?

It relates your workout to calories burned and to portions of common (and not-so-common) foods.

"Nice workout. You just burned off 11% of a breath mint."

Everyone will know you're serious about working out because they'll hear the grunts and groans coming from the device while you're shaking it up and down. Of course, you can turn off the sound effects if you're too modest.

Be sure to switch hands now and then, so one arm doesn't get too much bigger than the other. (That brings all kinds of unwelcome attention. Trust me on this.)

FEATURES:

• Counts calories with each workout - customizable for your weight
• Remembers lifetime calories burned
• Relates calorie counts to portions of common (and not-so-common) foods
• "Heavy lifting" sound effects (may be turned off)

TiltBox 1.0(Entertainment)[[iTunes][6]]
