Looking for Easter eggs in iOS and its apps

by Mike Schramm (Apr 25th, 2011)

TUAW's Daily App: Super Blast 2

by Mike Schramm (Jan 3rd, 2011)

I have to admit that I never played Super Blast, but the sequel has entertained me for a little while now. It's a straight-up shooter game with a nice, easy control scheme. All you do is tilt your device to aim and shoot, and you can occasionally tap the screen to clear it with a bomb. It's a ...
