360 Panorama now available on Android Market
Tired of NOT being able to take panoramic pictures on your Android device? Wait no more. Occipital's 360 Panorama has officially hit the Android Market for all of you running Android 2.3 or above (no Honeycomb support as of yet). The app was first seen on the App Store for iOS devices and it hasn't changed much (or at all). What makes this app great is that it is... Read more » App Review: SugarSync
In today's field of mobile technology, cloud storage has become an increasingly popular trend for storing media, documents, and other data that you would normally access on your phone, tablet or computer. The number of options has recently increased largely for anyone wanting to join in on the cloud revolution. SugarSync, an app made by a developer of the same...

HD Widgets is a collection of a dozen or so beautifully tablet-optimized widgets available for $2 in the Android market. These widgets have a few tappable functions: Tapping the clock opens the alarm clock, and tapping the weather will display a custom fullscreen information panel about weather in your area. All in all, what's not to like about HD Widgets? It's... Read more » Widget Watch: Go Weather
One of the best things about Android, and one of its distinguishing features, is widgets. Widgets are ment to be added to the homescreen of your Android device, and usually contain some sort of information, or act as a switch for an action. In my personal homescreen layout, every page has a widget. Whether its weather, Twitter, Power Control, contacts, calendar...... Read more » App review: Go!Chat for Facebook
As crazy as this sounds, I still have friends who don't have a cell phone. Those same friends, believe it or not, all have a laptop, desktop, or iPod Touch (since Android is seriously lacking in an alternative at the moment) which they use to stay glued to Facebook. So if I can't easily text or call them, what am I supposed to do? Facebook has a chat client built... Read more » App review: Alchemy
Did you know that if you mix fire and water, you get alcohol? Did you know that if you mix alcohol and wheat, you get beer? Or how about if you take beer, and add a brick house, you make a bar? Welcome, to Alchemy. According to the Merriam Webster dictionary, alchemy is "an inexplicable or mysterious transmuting." Alchemy for Android is an interesting puzzle...

Every now and then, I happen to stumble upon a game that it so good it makes me wonder why it took so long to discover it. I'll start playing, everything looks great, the game feels fluid, and then it starts to set in, "oh, this is why more people aren't talking about it." Robotek from Hexage falls into that category. For the most part the game is amazing, but... Read more » Root Reviews: Notification Restart
Today's Memorial Day edition of Root Reviews will be a short one, but the featured app is one I've been waiting a long time for. As you may have guessed, from previous Root Reviews, I love CyanogenMod 7 themes. The theme engine makes it so incredibly easy to apply them, and the number of themes is growing ever larger. The only thing I don't like about the system, is... Read more » Game Corner: Stupid Zombies
Over this weekend, during a five hour trip to Chicago, I had a lot of time to burn. I decided I wanted to try a new game, and I vaguely remembered trying a game on a Xoom that had to do with shooting zombies. Unfortunately, all I could remember was a cartoonisn icon featuring a zombie in crosshairs, and name with zombie in it. I began my search, came across... Read more » Game Corner: Dillo Hills
Finding games that really push the Nexus S to the limit of its processing power are surprisingly hard to come by. Out of all the graphic-heavy HD games I've tried so far, only one has been able to really stress the device: Dillo Hills. I originally found Dillo Hills by searching for Tiny Wings, an iOS game, in the Android Market. Dillo Hills isn't necessarily a... Read more »
