Getting your music outta a tight Jam

by Erica Sadun (Feb 14th, 2013)

Jam (free) is one of those little apps that has found great traction over here at TUAW. From a pair of charming Australian developers, it helps you create silly, but engaging auto-tuned tracks in a variety of styles. It does have, as we discovered, one major flaw. It expects you to use and ...

Ecamm introduces iPad document management with PadSync

by Erica Sadun (Jun 7th, 2010)

Cocotron lets you develop in Cocoa for Windows, with a little extra work

by Mike Schramm (Nov 3rd, 2008)

It kind of sounds like a developer's dream: create an app in Cocoa that automatically works on Windows, too.

by Brett Terpstra (Apr 3rd, 2008)

It's always seemed to me that the image that comes from the built-in camera on my MacBook Pro should be more adjustable. We've previously mentioned iGlasses, a webcam utility (from the makers of the handy Call Recorder for Skype) which provides all of those missing controls. The utility recently ...

by Mike Schramm (Aug 13th, 2007)

The iPhone application community continues to amaze me-- this time, Engadget's got the heads up on an iPhone video conferencing system, made possible by not only a cool little piece of code (designed for a C4 contest) that fetches an iPhone's camera input and feeds it out to another iPhone via a ...
