Looks like the Google team is at it again with their non-stop "iPhone-optimized" web pages! Their hard work is good news for the rest of us. Just yesterday they announced an optimized page for Google Books. This essentially turns your iPhone into an eBook reader, and will allow you to search their extensive database of...

Every now and then when I'm bored and looking for something to do, I will check the Top 25 Free apps via the App Store. This list is constantly changing so it's always interesting to see what will appear in the listings. Most of the time developers will create a killer app and give it...
