Frapstr Digest II: Nov. 1-8, 2008

Date November 9, 2008


There’s no doubt about it.  The App Store has exploded.  In the early days, for the first couple of months, I was able to keep up.  It was a challenge sometimes, keeping up with all the new freebies, but I managed it every few days.  But it has picked up more and more, and I [...]

Frapstr Digest: October 2008 In Review

Date November 2, 2008


A few weeks back I had planned to start doing weekly digests of the previous week of releases on Frapstr, the Free App Store Review.  Partly to maintain a connection to its original home, but also to bring some cool stuff (and some crap stuff) to those who may not know about Frapstr or don’t [...]

The Great Hudson Giveaway: 3 Freebies, 3 Days, 3 Cheers

Date October 9, 2008


It’s Tokyo Game Show time in the land of the rising sun, and it’s making veteran developers HudsonSoft giddier than a Japanese school girl.  So giddy that, from now until until midnight Sunday (Japan Standard Time — noon EST) they’re giving away three of their games to anyone who wants them.  Free!  Aqua Forest, Catch [...]

The Free App Store Review XX: Frapstr’s New Crib

Date September 30, 2008


Alright, enough teasing.  Although I’m not entirely done with it yet, I’ve decided to pull off the wraps and give up the big reveal.
Yes, those of you who have been wondering, perhaps even anticipating the Big Mystery over the last couple of days need wonder no more — though perhaps some of you have already [...]

The Free App Store Review XIX: Lost in the Parking Lot of Life

Date September 27, 2008


Yep. We’re back again. Frapstr celebrated its 18th by getting smashed off its face and ending up two miles out in the Nevada desert with no memory of the preceeding events, and the only clues being an empty bottle of MD 20/20 in one hand, a rider’s crop in the other, and the [...]

The Free App Store Review XVIII: Frapstr Becomes a Man

Date September 19, 2008


Welcome to another edition of the Free App Store Review, the free app roundup that features the latest, the greatest, the worst, and the indifferent of the freebies that can be yours from Apple’s fine online marketplace, served with a side of accolades and lashings of spicy snark sauce.  Today, the Free App Store Review [...]

The Free App Store Review XVII Special Edition: The Cool and the Crap

Date September 14, 2008


Alright. I’m not even going to try and make any pretense of keeping up. The App Store has sprinted ahead of me, so I’m just going to take a shameless shortcut in order to get ahead of it and spread some caltrops across the road behind me by saying bugger the whole “chunk” [...]

The Free App Store Review XVI: Chunk the First: Late to the Party

Date September 6, 2008


In case you hadn’t noticed, I’m late. Quite late. No, the Free App Store review hasn’t disappeared, there’s just been a combination of a lot on my plate and not enough sleep to energize me to the point where I was able to deal with it all. With the contest wrapping up, [...]

The Free App Store Review XV: Dinner and a Movie

Date August 29, 2008


Yes, things have been a bit slow around here — not that the world of iPhone and iPod Touch news has been slow by any means, but with Jody currently being away, Adam having only just gotten back from a whirlwind west-coast tour, and me having my head stuck in the creation of the Snapture [...]

The Free App Store Review XIV: Sorry I’m Late, I Was Stuck in a Traffic Cam

Date August 21, 2008


Y’know what I like about the iPhone 3G? I can download apps on the go and play with them without having to be at home. That, and I can point and spit snark at the ones I don’t like without disturbing my wife. It’s a tremendous time saver, even if the people [...]

The Free App Store Review XIII: Beauty is In the Eye of the Beer Holder

Date August 16, 2008


Break out your galoshes, because we’re about to wade through another flood of freebies.  Yeah, I know I’m a little late, but your mom just would not let me get dressed.  (Badda-BING!)  Anyway, there are a few pretty choice apps in today’s issue, which is cool, because I like it when I get to enjoy [...]

The Free App Store Review XII: Deus Ex Machina

Date August 12, 2008


Well now, that’s more like it. I was beginning to worry that the tide of freebies had slowed to a trickle, but it seems it was merely a temporary lull, because we’re back in full force with another chunky vat of fresh freebie slurry cascading down the sluice for y’all. (And the award [...]

The Free App Store Review XI: The Wisdom of Light Sabers

Date August 10, 2008


Well shave my yak if it isn’t time for another freebie roundup. It seems the last few days have been a wee bit slow in that department, with only a baker’s dozen new titles to plow through, which means I might actually finish this roundup in a respectable amount of time. Oddly, there’s [...]
