<p>It’s really interesting to see how developers put their  talent behind applications that are of little or no help but there is nothing  wrong in doing that as this is how some of the top applications have been  launched, trial and error! It&#8217;s better to do something and improve it to make it better and successful than just not doing it AT ALL!</p>
<p>Here goes the list&#8230;</p>
<p><span id="more-3890"></span></p>
<p><strong>WantBack iPhone App:</strong></p>
<p>According to  the developers this app is suppose to be the “life of the party”, the  application was made to be smart and sarcastic but unfortunately I don’t see  any of it happening.</p>
<p>I am sure  most users of this app will agree with me. Check the video out to see what I  mean..</p>

<p><strong>iSnort iPhone App</strong>:</p>
<p>This application is inspired by  Virtual Pint and takes virtual doping to the next level but this is as  pointless as virtual Pint!</p>
<p>Check it out in the video below.</p>
<p align="center"><object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" width="425" height="344" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true" /><param name="allowScriptAccess" value="always" /><param name="src" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/-j-DGrWry6k&amp;color1=0xb1b1b1&amp;color2=0xcfcfcf&amp;hl=en&amp;feature=player_embedded&amp;fs=1" /><param name="allowfullscreen" value="true" /><embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="425" height="344" src="http://www.youtube.com/v/-j-DGrWry6k&amp;color1=0xb1b1b1&amp;color2=0xcfcfcf&amp;hl=en&amp;feature=player_embedded&amp;fs=1" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true"></embed></object></p>
<p>Download this Pointless iPhone  App from <a href="http://www.theisnort.com/isnort.html" target="_blank">here</a></p>
<p><strong>Disco Ball iPhone App:</strong></p>
<p>The best way to listen to music  from 70’s is to go back into 70’s, how? With Disco Ball obviously, NOT!</p>
<p>Developers of this app claim that the right way of listening  to BeeGees and ABBA on your iPhone is by launching Disco Ball with the numbers  playing in the background!</p>

<p><strong>Moo iPhone App :</strong></p>
<p>This is another applciation which does not do much other than Moo&#8217;ing every time the phone is flipped or turned.</p>
<p><img align="center" title="moo" src="http://tnerd.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/06/moo.png" alt="moo" width="332" height="219" /></a></p>

<p><strong>Eshaver iPhone App</strong>:</p>
<p>Geeks are taking the idea of virtual life a little too  seriously. This applications acts as a virtual shaver which does nothing but  makes sounds when the iPhone is rubbed against your face!</p>
<p>Watch this video to see how pointless this apps is!</p>
<p align="center"><object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" width="400" height="302" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0"><param name="allowfullscreen" value="true" /><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always" /><param name="src" value="http://vimeo.com/moogaloop.swf?clip_id=2573086&amp;server=vimeo.com&amp;show_title=1&amp;show_byline=1&amp;show_portrait=0&amp;color=&amp;fullscreen=1" /><embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="400" height="302" src="http://vimeo.com/moogaloop.swf?clip_id=2573086&amp;server=vimeo.com&amp;show_title=1&amp;show_byline=1&amp;show_portrait=0&amp;color=&amp;fullscreen=1" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true"></embed></object></p>

<p>Following applications may be pointless but are certainly  amusing and in some cases eye candy!</p>
<p><strong>CandyClock iPhone App</strong>:</p>
<p>This  is a clock application with some really nice and soothing background video effects.</p>
<p align="center"><img src="http://tnerd.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/06/candy-clock.png" alt="Candy Clock" width="420" height="286" /></p>
<p>Download this Eye Candy iPhone  App from <a href="http://itunes.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewSoftware?id=308354439&amp;mt=8" target="_blank">here</a></p>
<p><strong>Holograms iPhone App:</strong></p>
<p>I won’t  call this application pointless but it eye candy for sure!! This application  smartly captures images and then adds 3D, Hologram and other very nice looking  effects.</p>
<p>I really liked 3D and Hologram effect, watch the video to  see what I am talking about!</p>
<p align="center"><object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" width="425" height="344" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true" /><param name="allowScriptAccess" value="always" /><param name="src" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/eTt1zCXKyY4&amp;color1=0xb1b1b1&amp;color2=0xcfcfcf&amp;hl=en&amp;feature=player_embedded&amp;fs=1" /><param name="allowfullscreen" value="true" /><embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="425" height="344" src="http://www.youtube.com/v/eTt1zCXKyY4&amp;color1=0xb1b1b1&amp;color2=0xcfcfcf&amp;hl=en&amp;feature=player_embedded&amp;fs=1" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true"></embed></object></p>
<p>Download this eye-candy iPhone  App from <a href="http://itunes.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewSoftware?id=309076878&amp;mt=8" target="_blank">here</a></p>
<p><strong>MouthOff iPhone App:</strong></p>
<p>This is an amusing but pointless iPhone app. I don’t see  it being used more than a couple of times. Yea, it can be fun for the first  couple of times but not after that!</p>
<p>Description of this application  actually goes to suggest that it can be used to lighten moods at the business  meeting, really? I don’t think so!</p>
<p>Anyway watch the following video  to see how this app works..</p>
<p align="center"><object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" width="425" height="344" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true" /><param name="allowScriptAccess" value="always" /><param name="src" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/ZxeUyxqm4Eg&amp;color1=0x3a3a3a&amp;color2=0x999999&amp;hl=en&amp;feature=player_embedded&amp;fs=1" /><param name="allowfullscreen" value="true" /><embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="425" height="344" src="http://www.youtube.com/v/ZxeUyxqm4Eg&amp;color1=0x3a3a3a&amp;color2=0x999999&amp;hl=en&amp;feature=player_embedded&amp;fs=1" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true"></embed></object></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img height="154" width="216" border="0" align="right" alt="iShoot App" src="http://tnerd.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/02/ishoot.png" />Ethan Nicholas, the developer of a gamed called iShoot  struck gold when his game hit the #1 spot on Appstore.</p>
<p>  It&rsquo;s a simple and easy to follow success story. Ethan  started working on this game in his spare time; he released a free version of  the game which at a point suggests the player to buy the full version of the  game for <strong>$2.99</strong>. Out of <strong>2.4 million</strong> users who downloaded the free version,  <strong>320,000</strong> users bought the full version of the game. </p>
<p>  This put the App on the <strong>#1 </strong>spot for about 3 weeks and helped  Ethan make about <strong>$37,000</strong> in one day. This not only highlights that the iPhone  App success stories are here to stay and we will see many more of these in the  time to come.</p>
<p>  Ethan who worked with Yahoo! Publishing Tools team as a lead  engineer was the original author of the Swing-based Yahoo! SiteBuilder web  design application he also worked on developing JAXX, and XML-based user  interface for creating Java desktop applications, even this was done during his  spare time at Yahoo!. Ethan quit this job at Sun Microsystems after his App  made a fortune for him. </p>
<p>  These days <a target="_blank" href="http://twitter.com/EthanNicholas">Ethan</a> is busy answering and tipping his followers  on <a target="_blank" href="http://twitter.com">Twitter</a> (<a target="_blank" href="http://twitter.com/tnerd">Follow TNerd on Twitter</a>) on how to be better at iShoot and replying to e-mails he receives from other iPhone game developers asking for his suggestions. </p>
<p>  <span id="more-2794"></span>The original paid version of the App &ldquo;iShoot&rdquo; was released  in Oct 2008 but only witnessed a limited number of downloaded before it faded  away, this is when Ethan decided to release a free version hoping it will  revive the original app. That&rsquo;s what happened exactly!</p>
<p>  What Ethan tried as an experiment is turning out to be a  guide for the individual App developers as they are all set to release a free  version of their paid apps. </p>
<p>Click <a target="_blank" href="http://itunes.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewSoftware?id=293798654&amp;mt=8">here</a> to Buy iShoot or <a target="_blank" href="http://itunes.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewSoftware?id=301050621&amp;mt=8">here</a> to <a href="http://tnerd.com/tag/ishoot-lite/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with iShoot-Lite">iShoot-Lite</a> (free version) and watch the video below to see the game in action..</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="alignleft alignnone size-full wp-image-1781" style="float: left; margin-left: 5px; margin-right: 5px; border: 0;" title="quickgold" src="http://tnerd.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/quickgold.png" alt="" width="280" height="248" /></p>
<p style="text-align: justify; "><a href="http://tnerd.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/quickgold.png" rel="shadowbox[post-1780];player=img;"></a>iPhone has various applications dedicated to various tasks, like audio, video games and so on. However, with such growing number off applications on you favorite iPhone and the luxury of having disk space to be able to afford such big number of application, it gets a little cumbersome to handle and launch such applications.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify; ">Think of this as growing number of applications in your windows operating system. After a while you feel a need to have a mechanism to launch these application with a combination of key strokes. Vista has a pretty good start menu search facility to cater to this need but in XP you are almost begging for a feature like this.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify; "><span id="more-1780"></span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify; ">So the point I am trying to make is that with growing number of applications in iPhone you&#8217;d have a a scenario like that of Windows XP at some point of time. Windows XP however now has good number of third party softwares that you can use as launchers. We did a post on TNerd on various launchers available for Windows environment. You can find that post <a href="http://tnerd.com/2008/08/22/launcher-productivity-software-application-app-launcher/">here</a>.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify; ">A similar kind of service called <a href="http://code.google.com/p/zataangstuff/wiki/QuickGold">QuickGold</a> is available for iPhones (<a href="http://tnerd.com/tag/pwned/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with pwned">pwned</a> iPhones). This kind of application will never be able to make it to <a href="http://tnerd.com/tag/apple/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Apple">Apple</a> Store because of the restrictions and hence is only available for jailbroken iPhones. Think of this application as <a href="http://www.applenewbie.com/archives/quicksilver-launcher/">QuickSilver</a> for iPhones.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify; ">I am sure a few smart searches will help you with various pwange tools and you&#8217;ll be able to use this application as an application launcher in your iPhone.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a id="Top" name="Top"></a>iPhone is about to launch in India (22nd Aug), I thought it would be a good time to write about some of the known and very popular applications. These applications can help you decide if you want to buy an iPhone if you are in two minds about it.</p>
