Posted by: Timothy Tibbetts on: 12/28/2012 02:41 PM in Apps - Utilities
We normally don’t even mention these apps because no one should have to pay to look at images of a car but this developer got smart and lowered his ridiculous fee of $1.99 to FREE. The app is simply that, a bunch of supercar photos to browse through.

Posted by: Timothy Tibbetts on: 12/17/2012 08:49 AM in Apps - Utilities
That’s right now you can download Top Gear to your iOS device and read how wonderful European cars are and how shitty anything American made is.

New: Math Car Racing for iPad
Posted by: Timothy Tibbetts on: 12/09/2012 03:59 PM in Apps - Games, Apps - Utilities
I remember when our son was growing up trying to teach him spelling. I was really good at it so it frustrated me that he didn’t pick it right up and I was a horrible teacher. Nowadays we have apps that masquerade as games to teach the kids. Math Car Racing is one such game that can help your little nipple nibbler learn math.
