I downloaded this app for iPad. It's pretty and obviously innovative. But it's actually a little confusing. There's almost too much richness. I'm sure they'll figure out the right mix of experience and editorial.
Apple recently filed documents with the US patent office that show they're working on a social media app for the iPhone called "iGroups'' (their fourth patent application related to social media that has become public this year). According to the documents, the app will allow iPhone users who are in the same meeting or event form a group through a secured network and to stay connected. And I'm sure it'll do much more than that...
This is awesome data, and not unexpected. The iPhone is the 21st Century entertainment device. What's also very interesting are apps like The Hidden Park which is about shared experience, not just keeping the kids occupied.
Also interesting:
- 59% let their children use their phones
- 41% download games specifically for their children
- 42% regularly use their phones at the grocery store

When I was a kid, I used to love SpyTech. I had all the gizmos and gadgets there were, and probably drove my family bonkers by playing spy – dusting lamps for finger prints, listening in on conversations and generally, well, spying. These days, kids have a whole new set of toys to play with...a seemingly endless supply of gadgets that do what ours did but to the 10th power. Here are some of my favorite SpyTech gadgets and their iPhone (3.0) equivalents. I love technology. 
SpyTech finger print kit and Fingerprint Security Pro. 
SpyTech long range microphone and iHearClear. 
SpyTech note taking set with security alarm and Evernote. 
SpyTech periscope and Snapture Labs zoom lens.
