| Gizmodo’s 20 Essential iPhone Apps Posted: 14 Nov 2008 01:00 PM CST digg_skin = 'compact'; digg_bgcolor = '#f1f8fa'; digg_url = 'http://digg.com/apple/Gizmodo_s_20_Essential_iPhone_Apps'; It's been four months almost to the day since iPhone 2.0 came, and we've been hitting the App Store hard every week ever since to sift through what's new in iPhone App land. This week, we've decided to hold back for a second, take a breath, and compile a different kind of list: the apps that many of us on staff actually use on a regular basis. If you have a new iPhone or iTouch just waiting to be filled up, or you feel like you may be missing some essentials in your collection, this is the list for you. Pageonce Personal Assistant: Combines myriad online accounts, from banking and investing to bill paying to airline frequent fliers. Rather than hit 15 different sites for your montly bill pay/pain time, use this single app. AOL Radio: Four letters: KCRW. AOL Radio pipes in the legendary LA station and for this we are thankful. Fring: The only IM/messaing client you need. Covers Google Talk, AIM, Skype, MSN, Yahoo, ICQ, Twitter, plus VoIP calls over Wi-Fi if you're low on minutes at home or in the coffee shop. Remote: One of the first apps we saw, and still among the best in terms of usefulness. If you use iTunes frequently at home and especially if you listen away from your desk via a stereo hookup or Airport Express, you need the Remote. AirSharing: Our favorite file storage app—shoots files to the iPhone's flash memory via Wi-Fi for storage, transport, and easy retrieval. Yelp: Taps into Yelp's community reviews to find good bars and restaurants based on your location. Essential for cities like San Francisco and New York where Yelp reviews are solid. When I'm out in the city and need a drink ASAP or the restaurant I was planning on going is too crowded/sucks, Yelp is what I reach for.

| New Watchmen Trailer Censors Out Dr. Manhattan Bits Posted: 14 Nov 2008 12:00 AM CST newVideoPlayer("/watchmentrailer2.flv", 506, 423,""); There's a new Watchmen trailer and this time around the blurry blue gonads are GONE. That's right, Dr. Manhattan's CG wang has been edited out by true-to-comic hating censors. But don't let half-second flashes (or the lack of them) of superhero man meat let you down, the rest of the trailer contains explosions, ass kicking, and proof that the Silk Spectre can do more than just strut around and kiss people.
