Facebook 3.1 Update

Joe Hewitt, the developer of Facebook for iPhone has detailed some of the upcoming features in Facebook 3.1.

ReadWriteWeb had a chance to talk with Hewitt and learn more about the app's roadmap. In the interview he mentioned three new features...

Contact list synchronization between your Facebook friends list and your phone's contact list
"It's a Terms of Service thing more than a technical limitation,"

Push notifications
"I plan to have it in the next major update, the 3.1. It will be the same kind of notifications you get on the website. I probably won't right off the bat give you chat notifications. If you've ever used Facebook's SMS notifications, you can have pretty granular control and it will be the same level of notification in terms of whose notifications you see and what categories you see."

Saved, site-wide search
"I hope but I can't promise to get that into the 3.1 update," Hewitt said. "We're still working on getting that into the API. I'm also hoping to let you save a search to your home screen."

No word yet on the planned release date for Facebook 3.1; however, we will let you know as soon as anymore information is available.

VirtualDeck: iPhone / iPod touch DJ app mix & scratch demo

This demo shows how to beatmix with VirtualDeck 1.9.2 , available for the iPhone and iPod touch.
Using two iPod touches and a mixer, the video first shows how to beatmix. The volume slider is left open so you can hear what is happening. Normally, the volume slider is down while cueing so the audience doens't hear the two records when they're not in sync yet.
After the beatmix, some simple scratching is performed.

Topple - Cool iphone Game

The puzzle game from Ngmococombines elements of Tetris and Jenga, challenging the player to stack the highest tower possible via a collection of random shapes. As with Tetris, you rotate the shapes provided, dropping them into place. As for the similarities to the wood block game Jenga, Topple makes you work to keep your shapes from losing balance and collapsing the tower—the game ends if four pieces fall off the board.

Topple picks up where those classic games leave off, adding its own spin on things. For instance, Topple’s blocks are alive, with facial expressions that react to their position on the board. Place a block in a stable position and it’ll smile contentedly. Stack a block in a precarious position and a look of caution or outright panic will emerge, warning you that the block is in a shaky situation.
