All the modern Christian needs is the BibleXpress iPhone application (okay, they'll need an iPhone or iPod Touch too), which offers a bunch of different translations of the Bible, "from conservative to contemporary". Naturally, the app uses the iPhone's touchscreen to let you ... http://www.iphonehotpicks.com/2008/07/biblexpress-brings-multiple-bible-translations-to-iphone/ I'm quite fascinated by molecules and DNA these days, although more in the form of colourful pretty pictures than the ins and outs of how they actually work.

But enough about my nights out. Netter's Musculoskeletal Flash Cards is a new iPhone app that explains ... http://www.iphonehotpicks.com/2008/07/the-hip-bones-connected-on-your-iphone/ The first official WordPress iPhone app came out today, allowing you to post to your blog on the go.
