Its developers have now released an adaptation of the IPAD program and from the moment one of the best for the team.

Prince of Persia Retro on your iPhone / Touch / IPAD

One game I remember most fondly is the famous Prince of Persia original. Before giving his jump to three dimensions, the game of prince became a classic lifelike animations by combining the characters and fluidity of movement not seen in a videogame.

From today we can play the classic game Prince of Persia Retro on the iPhone / iPod Touch / IPAD, and just made its appearance in the App Store. Despite being the original adventure, graphics correspond to the second part of it, Prince of Persia 2: The Shadow and the Flame. The controls leave a bit to be desired, especially taking into account that games platforms are most in need of a good control when you press the buttons and implement actions in due time. Unable to set the position of the same, which deducts points in this assessment. At least this comment is that the iPhone version, I do not know how will the user experience in an IPAD. Best of all is that, for very little money, 0.79 euros, can play a classic video game that has aged extremely well over time. And, as in the original game, we only have 1 hour to save the princess. That if we get used to the controls, which is already an adventure in itself. More info | Prince of Persia Retro

Home Firefox, Mozilla Application for trying to enter the iPhone

In Mozilla seeking to enter the iPhone from a totally opposite to that taken by Opera a few weeks ago. Everyone was amazed with the acceptance of Apple’s iPhone application for this browser, but the results were not as good as should have been.

Mozilla is not going to try to publish a browser, Firefox Home publish an application that will allow you to sync all data from the desktop Firefox. From Mozilla declare that to the possibility of a full browser is rejected in App Store, either due to technical or policy of the App Store, prefer to bring the possibility for any Firefox user can access the most important data from your desktop version. The history, tabs, bookmarks will be accessible through this application and loaded by Safari. Apple tyrannical policy on occasion, can lead to nonsense like this, that the user does not have something as basic liberty (and a priori harmless) as the choice of which browser to use. But with this implementation at least, we will ensure access to quickly and easily to the data that we have been using our desktop Firefox browser. The application, which will use Firefox Sync, promises to be free but as you can see in the video there is still time for the application appear in the App Store. More Info | The Mozilla Blog

Changing application icons in the menu bar of Mac OS X

All know how to change more or less straightforward application icons in Mac OS X. However, there are some icons that we are always visible in our office and whose alteration is not so easy, the bar menus.

So, let’s see how to change the icons on the menu bar of Mac OS X applications resident, easily and with an example. Before we begin, we explain a little what these icons and to serve: Used to show the user applications on which residents can interact. There are residents of the system applications, including selection of Wi-Fi Airport, the administrator of battery, clock or even Spotlight. And then there are those that each user is installed, such as Evernote, Dropbox, Remote Buddy … The particularity of these icons is that they can have several states. For example, a mail notifier picture change if we mail or otherwise, or for example the implementation of Dropbox has different icons to indicate which is being updated in the cloud, for example. We can change only one of these icons, but to be consistent, we should change them all. Let’s see how.

Seesmic comes to iPhone and iPod touch with interesting news

Now that we have a fantastic application for Twitter and above is free, now that we have an updated version of Facebook with a great design, now comes an application that promises to do all that but in a differently. Seesmic and is called “grace” of the matter is that it is capable of handling more than one service at a time and therefore save time.

The idea is simple, instead of having to open an application for each service you want to update your status from Seesmic you can make them at once. At present only at a time can update Facebook and Twitter but that alone can save us some time. The operation of the application is quite simple and is based on panels to display each of the timeline for each service. We can add more panels to search for users, tags and even with our replys to access them very quickly. Another small details of the implementation is integration with Evernote, so that we can share notes with Evernote and content easily from within the application. The application also has versions for Mac and PC and even a web version to access from any device but has no native application to him. If you like to quickly update more than one service at a time or even if you like being a day of an important tag is a very useful application for it. Downloads | App Store

ShinyTweet, a Twitter client with a different style

Despite being a fan of Twitter, one of the biggest faults that I find today to IPAD are horrible service applications available to the App Store. Almost all try to imitate their versions of the iPhone and it does not work in the IPAD.

ShinyTweet is an application that breaks the mold and offers an interesting alternative to existing customers for the IPAD Twitter. If it is something rare in its workings and it might look not very well thought out, the truth is Once the video that after working in the same impressions are pretty good. The idea is to use sliding panels to try to provide emerging information in a horizontal format, thus the content generated by the program (links, tweets, users … etc) are grouped horizontally, can expand or reduce them so simple. The program is priced at 2.99 euros, a bit pricey but we have to start for developers accustomed to HD or IPAD words mean more expensive programs with the same features undoubtedly is one of the best applications available to date to Twitter.

Although there are many programs for this same purpose, the program emphasizes Free Keka mainly because of its ease of use. After start it and configure the program, it is only necessary to drag the file or files you want to compress the Dock icon for the program do the rest.

We may also protect the file with password to be decompressed by those who should not. The program has a version to add to the fostering system libraries that we can perform compression from the context menu, this way we use it will be faster because we use from the menu by pressing the right button any file. Thanks to Daniel Madrazo for the tip. More information and download | Keka page for Mac OS X

10 Applications for iPhone that helps us to develop new skills

I recently read an entry on Mashable curious where we showed 10 applications to learn new skills easily and step by step. The diversity of applications for the iPhone OS and IPADE is tremendous, that no doubt, but it is funny how we can enforce these applications to develop our skills a bit more and why not, discover new hobbies and hobbies which in principle we had no intentions to practice but after reading this post can be presented as we wish.

As you will see below that we suggest applications are focused on small tutorials or guides that can teach us a trick and introduce some discipline, are free and I think this model makes sense to share applications on the App Store so is as it should be, if someone wants to deepen in some field or go to any more specific guidance and detailed, then surely some other application is more elaborate, more detailed and of course more expensive. Come on with it the list of applications that can be found in the extended entry. Ability 1: Learn basic Origami With Dollar Origami Lite we learn our first steps in the and ancient Japanese art of paper folding, origami. The application presents various forms of origami using dollar bills, but do not understand currency origami, we can apply to any type of ticket. It’s great to hang out when we have nothing else to do and our hands are free. In the application itself is free, of course, but it is imperative to have a ticket (or alternative waste paper) at hand. (# ) Ability 2: First Aid Workshop is clear that in an emergency situation you can not cry “Stay around the world that I will open my iPhone and study how to do the word of mouth. In any case, when we have some time we can review what we proposed to apply CPR & Choking. There we can watch videos on tips and tutorials for managing cardiac massage and other procedures that may aid the future may be useful. Although it is clear that we must never venture to carry out these practices without knowing all the details, we can cause more harm than good if you do not have adequate training, with this application we can get an idea of the basics, but we can never take us this matter lightly as if it were child’s play. Skill 3: Learn to tie the knot at a time Are you still relying on a relative to do your tie knot? Do you have a wedding and have never known make the knot? Well suffer no more, with the application vTie – Guide Necktie know the procedure to perform some typical tie knots for those occasions where you need to wear a tie. While yes, you do not expect to go first, this becoming the knot (and I speak from experience) requires much trial and error. Ability 4: Make magic tricks in no time It is clear that this application, Magic Shop, is not focused on us to become the David Copperfield overnight. Instead, he presents 10 basic tricks and interesting to implement in a time where you want to draw attention, using everyday objects and mundane effects can make quite funny. Ability 5: Typing for iPhone With the implementation iTextSpeed Lite you can improve your writing skills with the iPhone keyboard. Promise that through games and exercises we propose the application will be able to improve our typing speed and reduce the rate of typographical errors. It also has the ability to review our statistics display screen to see how we improve. Skill 6: Be a teacher of the sailors knots If we are interested in learning to perform using rope or cord knots, Knots Free is our application to learn the first steps, we can see pictures and learn one by one all the movements necessary to build a good reef knot. There are plenty of situations where make a good knot, tie ropes, tied to the mother to the chair, provide some structure and application … always good in the least expected moment we have the chance to make a good knot. Ability 7: The morse is not so difficult when you have the bases If we have Free Morse Code we use the universally recognized code of dots and dashes. We come in handy in situations where no other means of communication is possible, we can use that code to send messages using sound or visual signaling distance. Remember that many people must learn the code and use it to communicate when circumstances oblige him. So if we have an application that serves as a translator so we can communicate and ask for help how to interpret all the information you sent us. Ability 8: Learn to play a song on the piano (# ) Well, this application but there is nothing to learn to play a song, using an interface similar to Guitar Hero can see which keys to play, in what order without one iota of music theory, only learning based on repetition. If you want to impress someone and there’s a keyboard around, perhaps with the implementation Pocket Universe Lite Piano Song you can sign a little and learn four notes to show that you know much, when in fact know how to play a song or none. Skill 9: Know the basics of chess In Chess.com have the chance to learn tactics and small little strategies * to choose either our first motions in the game of chess also allows users to play against others if we check the service for free. Everything is focused on web service, but allows some games and keep improving the level gradually. Skill 10: Prepare the best cocktails Want to four recipes for some of the most famous cocktails? Mixology: Drink Recipes has that and more with this free application can access a lot of cocktails and do little tricks for making them. So you know, not all games, applications the camera or to connect to our social networks, also disponéis a wide range of applications gratutias with which to improve and learn new tricks and new hobbies, but yes, as I announced the beginning of the entry, are very focused on being a commencement, to the bases, never to become a reference guide, if anyone has thought deeply into any of these 10 skills to be a course, buy a detailed book and to devote time and effort. Courage! Via | Mashable

LoadMyTracks, a program to convert GPS tracks

If you use a GPS and assisted GPS kit outdoor routes or TwoNav, both compatible with the load paths, you may have found that the majority of files uploaded from sites like Wikiloc are not compatible with these programs. To support these files is fairly easy with a program called LoadMyTracks.

This software can read most file-tracks, waypoints, routes and laps and convert most used formats such as GPX or KML. Convert any file is as simple as dragging the to the program file or open it from the menu, and select the type of output file. The program is also capable of detecting various brands of browsers, they have nothing to do with the iPhone or iPod touch, and import those files directly while making the format specified by us. With a price of zero euros seems like all a must for users who use these routes or simply want to export files from their browsers. Download | LoadMyTracks

The new iPhone could come around June 21

Due to a change in plans for some users in the U.S. network AT & T along with the iPhone 3G, have raised suspicions about the launch date of its successor bets place this time around June 21.

MobileCrunch A reader reported the following: Do not know if everyone has noticed the same thing [...] but the rights of renewing my contract phone on my AT & T has just passed on 21 November June 21 recently. I bought a 3G on launch day last year, and since that date was Nov. 11. Other colleagues in my office have also seen that the dates have moved forward in their accounts. On June 21 became a date that raises concern, since the beginning of that month will be held at WWDC 2010, and certainly will be at the keynote of the annual event where Steve Jobs unveiled the new phone from Apple. Already there were rumors that its release would be almost immediate, but if we ignore him at that time in the case of the AT & T, could be that the June 21 release date was. Either that or the iPhone would be launched the day after the keynote, but the owners of a 3G upgrade will not be able to within a few weeks, as a control measure to help minimize delays in shipments. The moment , it’s certain that as of June 21 AT & T customers will enjoy a discount if you want to update your iPhone, which leads us to say that very likely already have a new model in the street for those dates. It is less. Vía | MobileCrunch Image | Myuibe
