Holiday Gift Guide 2009: Best iPhone & iPod touch apps

Posted in:

http://i.zdnet.com/images/200910/2009giftGuideHeader_480x83.gif It's that time of the year again! It's hard to believe, but this time last year, we only had 5,000 apps to choose from in the App Store – this year there's more than 85,000 apps to choose from. What a difference a year makes. Whether you're looking for an app for yourself or to give to the iPhone or iPod touch user on your list, look no further. I've got a couple of recommendations that will help you keep up with Twitter friends, store all your passwords, be more fuel efficient, count calorie and have a little fun in the process! Can't decide? That's ok too, you always give your special someone an iTunes gift certificate, they're great for apps and music. TweetDeck for iPhone TweetDeck is best Twitter client on the desktop, so it's not surprising that it's also the best Twitter client on the iPhone (App Store, free) and iPod touch. It features multiple accounts, growl notifications and a unique column interface that allows you quickly swipe between all friends, mentions, direct messages and saved searches – or any combination thereof. You can even sync your column preferences between the desktop and iPhone apps. TweetDeck for iPhone could use a better trends interface, but it's other Although there are literally hundreds of Twitter clients on the App Store, TweetDeck is still the top dog. (Don't agree? Tweet me your pick @JasonOGrady) [Vendor site] [App Store] Bonus pick: Boxcar is a free app that displays a push notification any time someone mentions you or sends you a DM, and it works for Twitter and Facebook.
