One of their latest apps is Globe Investor: Globe Investor is your guide to help you take control of your investments. Our new app delivers Canada's most authoritative business...

I've always found applications that give you quick fun information to be, well, fun to have and play around with. I spent a good chunk of time Wolfram Alpha when I first discovered it and I'm now doing the same with "On This Day...". With this application you can find other important events, births, and...

Many of us have already joined Google+, a social network operated by Google which was launched only two months ago and has already reached 25 million users. If you've already entered the circles of Google+ and also have an iOS device at hand, this app is what you need to import all your photos from Facebook, Flickr, Instagram...

One of the main complaints I hear when I try to convert my Crackberry friends to iPhone is that they can type faster on the berry and that they would not be able to be as fast on a touchscreen. While I disagree and say that touchscreen typing is superior, some of them can type...

I find the board game Risk fun, but unrealistic. How can fighting be the only way to win a dispute? This is how Civilization Revolution became my favorite Risk game. It's world domination, taken physically, or verbally. While the computer is their flagship console, they have recently been licensing to other consoles, including iOS. As...

Pandora Radio is a service that allows for free streaming of internet music. While highly praised in the US, Canada has been left out of the service all together (you can use Onavo to access it via 3G though). I just recently stumbled across what I am convinced is Canada's Pandora alternative, AUPEO!. The service...

Verbs IM is a fairly new (coming on the App Store last December) Instant Messaging application which boasts a elegant, easy to use, and a breath-taking design that will put all other IM clients to shame. Plain and simple, this is one of the most beautiful apps I have used on my iPhone. Verbs IM looks...

A relatively new app is now available for Saskatchewan transit riders. Stoon Ride is the companion app you've been waiting for, as it provides data from Saskatoon Transit.

Apple has finally pulled the plug on The Financial Times official app for iOS which apparently failed to comply with Apple's in-app subscription guidelines, after a two months deadline which recently came to an end. According to Apple's terms, an app that requires monthly subscriptions must allow payment processing though the iTunes which gives a...
