Ipod Touch App Falling Gems

First of all Happy New Year! I hope you are off to a great start.

I downloaded this new game called Falling Gems. It was free for some reasons and normally costs about a dollar. It is a very fun and addictive game.

If you ever played games like collapse or tetris, then I think you will enjoy this application.

Falling Gems is an addictive game based on the classic match-three concept with the addition of innovative features, designed from the ground up for the iPhone and iPod touch!

The rules are simple: swap adjacent gems to make sets of three or more gems of the same color.

Straight line, L-shaped and other forms are all valid!

Gameplay is intuitive: just swipe your finger on the screen to swap gems.

And remember they fall with gravity! Just rotate your device to make gems fall in different directions.

Perfect for killing time at the airport, during boring classes or at the office!

If you like games like Tetris, Bejeweled 2, Fling, Line Up, Chuzzle, Bookworm, Trism, Jewel Quest, Aurora Feint, Enigmo, Parking Lot or Blocked, you'll love Falling Gems!

Additional features:

■ Game state is automatically saved when you receive a call or close the app.
■ No boring stories to read, just pure gameplay!
■ Color-blind mode.

Ipod and Netflix = Phoneflix

This new free application Phoneflix I downloaded makes it convenient to manage my netflix queue. No, I still can't watch streaming netflix movies yet on my Ipod Touch, but I am sure it will eventually happen.

I found a video of the app on a different device but it works identical. Funny, the youtube video is OK, but the guy needs to sound more normal than a robot.

Learning more about what my 1st apple ipod touch can do

I literally use my 1st apple ipod touch everyday multiple times of the day. Surprisingly enough I use it most now as an mp3 player which is what it initially started out as to be. My wife downloaded a great 1 hour meditation song for me that I use to fall asleep to. It is some slow melody with rain noise in the background. We got it free from Amazon with their free 3 mp3 offer for black Friday.

I actually like to use my ipod touch to browse my netflix queue and wish I could play movies on it. I looked it up on the Internet to see if they have plans to enable the devise, and I guess rumor has it that it will one day. The main problem is the operating system and platform won't support it yet.

While doing this search I did find this other site to help me get more knowledgeable about my gadget. Check it out and I hope you find if useful too.
