Spezify is a search engine displaying amazing results in a visual manner, mixing text and medias. I was very surprised by the quality of the results, and it’s especially good at extracting relevant information from Twitter.
We take web search further, away from endless lists of blue text links and towards a more intuitive [...]
Interesting benchmark. As JavaScript (in WebKit) is available on every iPhone, Palm Pre and Android phones it’s a fair comparison; and the iPhone 3GS blow them all.

Cook is a great manager, a whiz when it comes to managing supply chains and keeping the trains running on time. He is vital to Apple. Jobs cannot do what he does. But neither can Cook do what Jobs does. The fact is, Apple needs both of them. Forgive me for the [...]

As the video shows, in our OpenGL ES testing, the 3GS is generally close to four times faster than the 3G. Results will vary depending on the application but this is remarkable to say the least.
It’s no surprise giving the new graphic chips in the iPhone 3GS but it worth mentioning. And [...]

So, to [...]
I can’t believe MMS is hot again. With the iPhone 3.0 software update, everyone is talking about it and can’t wait to try it.
MMS has been around for more that 7 years but so badly implemented into devices that it was simply unusable.
It’s crazy! We had to wait for Apple to show these guys how [...]
John Gruber,
The conventional wisdom at the moment seems to be that the iPhone is only a consumer device, but the conventional wisdom is wrong. Think about all the hospital/medical demos from recent iPhone events, for one thing.
