After decades of research, countless Erlenmeyer flasks, and several weeks of hapless finger-painting, we’re finally able to announce the launch of The Onion Microfiche. The first-ever iPhone app that delivers a world of Onion headlines directly to your Oxford shirt pocket.
(FYI- Some of our favorites apps are listed at the end of this post… but they only appear if you read the whole thing

This July will mark the one-year anniversary of Apple’s App Store opening for business. Applying the music store commission model to applications meant that developers (after school entrepreneurs to full-fledged software companies) can not only develop for cutting edge devices & technologies with support, but also find digital distribution at the source with freedom to charge as they see fit. Now having just surpassed 25,000 apps (Fortune), it’s interesting to see what some of the most successful have been. Games to software extensions to business portals: what users consider to be their personal “top apps” likely range all across the board. Some of the best are undoubtably simple lifehacks & convenience apps, likely from the same time-saving minds who develop browser extensions & plugins.
