Need to tune your Guitar? Gibson has an App for that.

There are times when I need to de-tune my guitar down to Q and I had no tuner handy. Thanks to Gibson for their iPhone App that includes tuner and metronome.

Partial description:

FEATURES:

  • A professional quality Chromatic Tuner that will allow you to tune any instrument using the iPhone microphone (or iPod Touch with microphone attachment)
  • Alternate Tuning settings so you can quickly and easily tune your guitar to various alternate tunings, including Open G, Low C, Drop D, Eb and others.
  • A Standard Mode Tuner that allows you to tune each string to a sample tone
  • An accurate Metronome with multiple time signatures, visual and audio options, and a set-your-own tempo tap pad
  • A Chord Library with a sample of the essential chords for every player beginner to advanced

Did I forget to mention that it’s free?

Still, there’s no instruction to downtune to Q.

California DMV, there’s an App for that.

If you live in California, need to do any business with DMV and you have an iPhone; there’s an App for that.

I never expected California DMV would have an iPhone App.

News Release
California DMV Now (dmv.ca.gov)
iTunes Page (Apple.com)

DMV Now is also compatible with iPod touch, internet connection required.

Now, where’s my License Plate sticker for 2010?

I just checked iTunes Store if DMV in other States had any Apps, so for I found none.

After a long wait, one of my favorite utilities is now Snow Leopard Compatible.

Enter iStumbler 0.9.9 on February 16th, 2010.

I really missed this app.

Apple enables “Find My iPhone” in Safari Mobile.

Apple has now enabled “Find My iPhone” feature on Mobile Safari. Why would you want to find the iPhone on an iPhone? Well, it would be handy to use a friend’s iPhone to find your mislocated iPhone.

This is one step for Apple to improve MobileMe service. Now, it would even be better to be able to access MobileMe email from Safari Browser. There are times when someone who is also a MobileMe member needed to check the MobileMe email on friend’s phone.
