HowStuffWorks: A Wild and Wonderful Cornucopia of Explanations
There is a HowStuffWorks app for iPhone, but I went for the iPad version -- bigger, better, easier to navigate and consume, especially when I want to kick back and learn about how things work. I was expecting a nitty-gritty experience of things like how combustion engines work, or how a potato-launching spud gun manages to blast a tuber 100 yards. Well, I got what I was expecting, but so much more.
