Most people have had the unfortunate task of looking for a restaurant last minute while trying to seamlessly mesh their location, preferred style of food and price point. Then someone, who would definitely be my friend, created the Urban Spoon app. Urban Spoon sticks out for me as not only a useful app but also one that is really fun to use, for the following reasons. Its utility stems from the fact that the app tells you information about a restaurant that you could only otherwise learn from a computer, reviews from blog posts, critics and user reviews. It makes choosing a restaurant fun because once you choose an area in any U.S or Canadian city, a style of food and a price point (one dollar sign to multiple) the app “shakes” until it finds the right restaurant for you.
Its not only fun to watch the screen shake until it lands on the right restaurant but reading the reviews and learning the location of the restaurant in so little time makes you feel like you won’t go wrong with your choice. Did I mention it’s free? And serves both U.S and Canadian cities? This is an app I would have on my iphone and be using all the time. No more mistakes in choosing restaurants. This app will do it for you. The one thing to consider is the consistency in the information provided for each restaurant, while some include the option to view the menu others don’t. However, a small price to pay for an amazing free app that will improve your eating out experience. Enjoy!

iPhone developers has taken it upon themselves to develop applications for nearly anything that would make your life easier on any given day, yet, through a great deal of research, I’ve discovered that America’s gridiron league can’t be found anywhere near the iPad. Since its creation nearly a century ago, the National Football League has acquired an astounding fan base that averages almost 70,000 people per game, but whether the fans are on the go or tailgating in the parking lot, they aren’t getting their game-time information through the world’s new technologies. I think it’s about time developers collaborate with NFL.com to create an iPad application that would allow its fans to read player bios, check scores from any team, get news about the NFL, and maybe even watch live footage of the game. Developers start your engines!… because there isn’t an app for that. I can only hope there will be one by the 2010 Regular Season.

Here are two apps that are dealing with the same subject, recipes, and are extremely effective but in different ways.I would argue that while they are dealing with the same subject, the apps are for two different audiences. Allrecipes.com is the app for the less advanced cook, someone who still relies on by the book ideas for meals. This is demonstrated by the apps straightforward search engine. However, Big Oven is more of an app for the advanced cook, someone who wants to be creative and get a little crazy with mashed potatoes, for example, coconut mashed potatoes being one of the recipes in their “What’s for Dinner” section. Both apps are free and offer cool extras beyond recipes. Below i’ll offer the Pros and Cons of each app to really break it down for you.
Pros
The search engine, that also serves as the home page for Allrecipes.com is unique because it allows you to search not only by ingredient, but by “ready in time”, giving the cook with a lot to do, the ability to search for a meal that will only take 20 minutes to complete. Big Oven’s homepage is also really neat because it offers an index of cool ways to organize your account on the app. There is the favorites list, the my try soon list, the really important grocery list where you can search recipes and choose items from it that you do not have at home, it adds it to the list so that when you make the trip to the store you know what you’re missing. There is also the leftover wizard that allows you to add ingredients that you have left over and compiles a relevant list of recipes, the whats for dinner? tab allows you to see what people around the world are eating that night for dinner, the random recipe tab and the ultimate, the Big Oven Glossary. Needless to say, there are so many different ways a person can take advantage of this app. You have to sign up by email, but it is a simple two minute process that results in a complete and most effective use of the app.
Cons
The simplicity of Allrecipes.com might not be enough for the cooks who want to challenge themselves, while it makes finding recipes easy, according to its search engine, it just doesn’t beat all the cool extra stuff that Big Oven offers. I mean coconut mashed potatoes — they would never be on Allrecipes.com. Big Oven definitely wins in the “cool” factor. However, the same way that Allrecipes.com may be over simplified, Big Oven is a little complex, there isn’t really a way to navigate it quickly especially if you do have a time crunch, Allrecipes.com is the way to go. All in all, using either app will make you feel really hungry and make you wish that you had more of an urge to use the oven over the microwave. Its important to know what you want to get out of the app and what takes precedence in your search criteria for recipes; time or creativity. Once you have that nailed, either app will come through in providing a recipe that’s right for you.

 With the help of the recently updated Maplets application, Zaia Design has initiated the development of an app that will make the navigation of new places easier. In an effort to efficiently update the app, Maplets is continuously adding maps of various landmarks, public transit routes, state and national parks, zoos, and ski resorts, yet in its preliminary stages, the app is currently limited to what information it can provide. If the map you need doesn’t exist… just send a request with the touch of a button and the developers might add it. The application also recommends points of interest that could be suitable for your trip. It even provides you with contact information and a short description of the place. In the end, whether you’re riding a donkey through the Grand Canyon or making your way through the bustling city of Boston, the Maplets application will show you the way.
