Siri is a fine personal assistant (and by, "personal assistant," I mean, "glorified search engine shortcut,") but she isn't too worldly. If you live in the United States and have an iPhone 4S (or if you've installed Siri through other means) you can ask where nearby restaurants are, and Siri will … [Read more...]
Dashtweet Is A Free Twitter Widget For Dashboard X On iPhone, iPad And iPod Touch [Cydia]
iOS 5's Twitter integration is somewhat underwhelming by default. It allows you to send tweets with attachments within apps, but it doesn't provide a quick way of sharing an unaccompanied tweet.

Mobile Tor Anonymizes ALL iPhone, iPad, Or iPod Touch WiFi Traffic, Not Just One Browser [Cydia Tweak]
We've covered Tor-capable browsers like Covert and Onion Browser in the past, but being restricted to just one app for anonymous internet use limits the utility of those apps.

Get Rid Of That Annoying Blue Double Bar When Using Personal Hotspot With Tetherize [Cydia Tweak]
This is an article about a data tethering issue (aka Personal Hotspot) and not about tethered unlocks or jailbreaks.

MIUI is a custom ROM for Android devices that, among its other features, allows for custom themes.

SwipeSelection Lets You Quickly Select Text From The iPhone/iPad’s Virtual Keyboard [Cydia Tweak]
I'm glad we have copy and paste on iOS, but highlighting text on the iPhone can be a pain. To select text normally, you have to move your finger off the virtual keyboard and press it over a word, and then drag the blue tabs until they cover the letters you want. Apple's system is intuitive, but it … [Read more...]
