iPhone apps: Ziibii, Q Contacts, Glue

  • Ziibii (free) blends together Facebook, Twitter, Flickr and YouTube, plus any other favorite web content into one app. Users will find two different views, River and List. The river turns all of the stories into "rafts" that will float across the iPhones screen on a river. The speed and direction of the story "rafts" can be adjusted by using swipe gestures. The list view provides a more traditional view of news stories, placing them all in one list.

  • Q Contacts (free) allows users to start typing in a contacts name to search. Results are continuously updated as you type and options for calling, texting and emailing are available without the need to actually open the contact card.

  • Glue (free) is a companion application to the Glue plugin for Firefox. It allows users to see movies, books and other everyday things are popular amongst their friends. Glue also allows users to browse the things they like and find what is most popular with others around the web.

  • IM+ ($10) is an all-in-one mobile messenger that has support for various networks including AIM, MSN, Yahoo, ICQ, Jabber, Google Talk and MySpaceIM. This allows users to communicate with all of their IM clients from one mobile application. The latest release of IM+ has added a new IM Push feature that sends messages as emails so users can stay connected during calls or when running other applications.

  • PhotoKast PRO ($3) allows users to broadcast their photos as well as help others to broadcast theirs. Users can post a photo from their camera or photo album and it will be sent to other PhotoKast users in their area. IF they like the picture they can vote to sent it to other people near them. So the more people that like a photo the faster and farther it will spread. Users can then see the buzz generated by each of their photos and track its popularity all over the world.
