"While Microsoft seemingly crawls toward the release of their first-party Office iPad app, it is being beaten to the punch. There are umpteen text editors for iOS, some full office suite alternatives, and of course, Apple's own iWork set to compete with. But now, SlideShark has chosen to concentrate solely on presentations. So how does it fare? Read on to find out!"

"One academic task the iPad lends itself towards is screencasting. After all, the iPad is portable, powerful, and has been used with other presentation mediums (Keynote, PowerPoint, and Prezi) since its release because users have the option to create, save, and share all in one compact and visually-robust device. However, it's been less obvious how to find screencasting software for the iPad."

"We woke to find Flipboard iPad news viewer has been updated. All good news for those that love their news presented visually and quick to get through. First up is the addition to the opening page of Flipboard - Cover Stories! No worries, that addition isn't going to cut the quantity of news you can have showing, the updated Flipboard supports another page to add your favorite feeds to."

"I stumbled across a great free app the other day. Haiku Deck bills itself as the alternative to Keynote and Powerpoint. After trying it out, it was very easy to use. I will be sure to use it the next time I present at a conference or professional development session. I immediately tried it out in a classroom of fourth graders who thought it was a slick app to make vocabulary cards with a little encouragement. "

I hope I get to catch 1 of Jethro's presentations this weekend.

USE APP COOKER TO - Prototype right on your iPad, connecting wireframes to form a fully fledged mock up. - Import and edit graphics then use the interface designer to combine these with all the regular iPad and iPhone interface elements and application templates. - Manage your store information then localize this into any of 18 supported languages. - Estimate the cost effectiveness of your app by testing a range of scenarios to find the perfect pricing strategy. - Automatically receive advice on your project based on your app's area of focus. - Once mocked up, export your prototypes to PDF or wire to a TV to present your app to the world.

As the walls that divide television, computers, and cell phones crumble, it is increasingly clear that any device's fate will be decided by its ability to gather and present information on demand. And the cell phone has emerged, for now at least, as the single most important device in the global marketplace. Nokia has never managed to leverage its position as a world leader in handset sales to achieve similar dominance in the United States, where it has only 7% market share

"But understanding that much of the world's presentation work happens in PowerPoint, the company has branched out to launch its SlideShark product , enabling you to display PowerPoint via your iPad."

A stroke of genius.

"n hindsight 60 apps in 60 minutes was a bit ambitious. I kind of felt as if we were auctioning off apps. (Perhaps a Nifty Fifty pack would have been a better fit.) For those of you who missed our session…or those of you who attended and caught whiplash from the sheer speed of it, here is a list of all of the apps we (John Samuelson and I) featured."
