The Week in iOS Apps: Sci-fi and fantasy
Sci-fi and fantasyThis week's roundup of new and updated apps features new entries from the Star Wars and Lord of the Rings franchises. Need we say more? AirbnbThe free Airbnb has revolutionized travel by making it easier for average folks to find non-hotel options for lodging on the road. This week’s update to the iPhone app offers new features for the hosts, letting them manage and reply to inquiries from a new Host Home page. It also offers tips about meeting “hospitality standards” and helping guests have memorable trips. ARTPOPThis free iOS App from Lady Gaga … well, let’s let the developers explain: “Altering the human experience, we bring ARTculture into POP in a reverse Warholian expedition. Exploring Gaga's existence as a cultural interface, the user will share in the ‘adrenaline of fame’ as they build and share their own projects, chat with one another, and watch in real-time on a virtual globe as ARTPOP explodes onto the physical and virtual universe at once.” Uh ... yeah. What they said. CuratorThe free Curator app might be thought of as a cross between Pinterest and Evernote—a place where iPad users can collect ideas and images from the Web and cloud sources like Dropbox, Instagram, and Flickr. Users can drag and drop content to organize and make presentations of their best “visual ideas.”To read this article in full or to leave a comment, please click here
