Want to graft a baboon head with rattlesnake eyes and tongue onto your ex-girlfriend’s body? There’s an app for that and it’s called Juxtaposer. Load two photos into Juxtaposer and you have your own pocket Island Of Dr. Moreau. The first photo loads full-size to form the base for your evil work. Choose a second photo, and it loads in thumbnail size, ready to be shaped, re-sized, and moved into position on the base. The final result can be saved and used as a base for a second round of pixel mutation.
The fight between who is going to be able to jailbreak all iPod touch's and iPhone's for both Mac and PC first has been getting very aggressive in the past week.

If you've ever been to Amazon.com and looked for some cheap cases, you've probably seen the cases that are $0.01 to 1.00. Most people are very skeptical when it comes to these types of cases because they might be rip-off scams that won't deliver what they promise in the description. So we decided to risk $0.01 for the case and $ 2.99 for shipping and handling to put this case to the test.
What we found was that these cases are pretty legitimate! The one's we ordered, were comparable to the durability of those cases made my Griffin and Speck which are usually at a much higher price of around $25.
I dropped the case a few times with an iPod touch 2nd Generation inside and I was surprised to find that the case broke open and absorbed the impact of the fall like it is supposed to. (Similar to how a motorcycle helmet with a crack in it is a good sign.)
My iPod has not since yet incurred any severe dents or dings, and it only cost me $3.00. I am very pleased with this case.
Today at Adobe's MAX 2009 conference in Los Angeles, Adobe unveiled that, from our knowledge, is unknown by Apple. Developers will now be able to create iPhone apps in Flash CS5 and export the app in .ipa file format. If you didn't already know, .ipa format this the file style that apps for the App Store are created in.
A member of the Adobe Flash team was quoted saying:
"We've done a lot of work to make sure that applications are quick and interactive, and give you the kind of experience that you would expect from Flash, as well as the kind of experience that you've come to expect on your iPhone.The apps that are created in CS5 are 100% compliant with Apple's app store regulations. This means that it has now become much easier for anyone to create iPhone apps. For a few examples check out Chroma Circuit, and Fickleblox which are currently on the App Store and have been created using Adobe Flash CS5. This also means that it is possible that iPhone apps can be created on a machine running Windows OS.
Here is a video demonstrating CS5 Applications on iPhone.
Adobe Flash CS5 is not expected to be released until after the end of 2009.
Today Adobe also confirmed that a native flash player for the iPhone or iPod touch will not be coming out any time soon because of Apple's restrictions on apps that can be admitted into the App Store. Hopefully Apple will wise up and give an exception to Adobe.
