Here’s how mine is loaded at the moment…
Facebook – iPhone and Facebook, they were made for each other
Dragon Dictation – a ‘gee whiz’ app – converts speech to text with surprising accuracy
AppBox – a plethora of useful little apps, including a great unit converter
Around Me – like the POI function of a GPS – I haven’t had occasion to use it yet, so can’t vouch for accuracy
Mixology – cocktail recipes at your fingertips – can even suggest recipes based on your bar and mix inventory – bottoms up!
Bump! - bump iPhones to transfer contact info. - nifty!
TSN Mobile – The Sports Network – good for news, not so much for boxscores
Sportsnet – easy access to boxscores, but meh for news
Sportacular – for broader and more in-depth results tracking
Slacker Radio – create your own radio stations – love it! - I’m going to subscribe
Flycast – somewhat like Slacker, but provides access to real radio stations from across the U.S.
Shazam – another ‘gee whiz’ app – point the iPhone at a music source and Shazam will tell you what’s playing – amaze your friends!
Gibson – yeah, THAT Gibson – comes with a built in guitar tuner which should prove very handy
IMDB – gotta have access to movie and TV info.
IGN – have seldom referenced this – reviews seem to lag behind the main site
Bejeweled 2 – a fave from Xbox 360 Arcade – one of the very few apps I’ve purchased
Peggle – see Bejeweled 2 – another great Pop Cap title worth shelling out for
Words with Friends – if I could only have one app, this would probably be it – mobile Scrabble is big fun and a great way to stay connected
FloodIt 2 – highly addictive – Joyce has been playing the life out of it on FB
Slingshot Plus – a silly little time waster where you take out cows and gophers with a slingshot
Fingerzilla – another time waster - devastation and destruction literally at your fingertips – try it!
Gold Miner – for the platform gamer in all of us
Hatch! – crack the egg and out pops a cute little animal – two year old grandson Koen loves it
Zombie Farm – a surprisingly “deep” sim for a handheld – just getting into this one
Web Pages – fave sites accessible from my home page…Hockey’s Future Boards, SensChirp, The Gear Page, We’re Not Here and, of course, Memory Almost Full
So what’s on your iPhone?
P.S. Barb, this would be the perfect opportunity for you to step out from behind the shadow of anonymity and post your very first blog.

Pete- As I see it- Jim has so little of his own with 4 kids and a wife..I always tease him- that he has a shark cookie jar and the blog...the rest we invade- so even though Jim offered to make me a "writer" I am going to stay in my favorite role as his biggest fan! Plus you know I post everything on facebook anyway ;)
Hey Pete, already downloaded some of these to my iPhone: Dragon Dictation, Mixology, FloodIt 2, Fingerzilla, Slingshot Plus & Slacker Radio. May I suggest that before you subscribe to Slacker that you check out Pandora? Pandora seems a little more user friendly in setting up your own stations, IMO.
Also, for THE ultimate time waster, you have to get Paper Toss. See if you can beat my score (on Easy) of 188!
And Barb, stop being silly! :-)
Did you have those apps already?
I just downloaded Paper Toss. Can't find Pandora though. I've looked before. Guessing it may not be available in Canada.
Barb, I know that shark cookie jar well!!!
