Remember Unbound? I called the iOS app “the best dropbox browser I have ever used,†and it’s still up there in the top two (the other is the excellent Heliog). Now — or at least soon — Unbound will be coming to the Mac. What’s more, it’ll be compatible with the neat little Leap Motion box that lets you control your Mac with wavy hand gestures.
The Leap is the motion-detecting dongle which lets you talk to your Mac [Read More...]

Eleven months ago, we reported that Andy Miller, the executive once in charge of Apple’s not-so-successful iAd operation, decided to leave the hallowed halls of Cupertino for new opportunities. Miller, who joined the company as VP of mobile advertising in 2010 following his work at Quattro Wireless, left the iDevice maker (where he reported directly to Steve Jobs) to become a general partner at Highland Capital, a Boston-based venture firm that initially funded Quattro Wireless.

iOS devices receive a lot of criticism for their static app icons, which, although often pretty, are a little boring to look at. Other than the Newsstand icon, which changes depending on which publications you have installed within, iOS icons do nothing. If you’ve got a jailbroken iPhone, however, you can make them a little more exciting. Motion is a nifty tweak available from within Cydia, which will animate the app [Read More...]
