HTML5 Audio on Safari iOS Browser

Safari on iPhone, iPod Touch and iPad now features good audio support, for web games and web apps, using HTML5.  Check out the details here:
http://developer.apple.com/library/safari/#documentation/AudioVideo/Conceptual/Using_HTML5_Audio_Video/Device-SpecificConsiderations/Device-SpecificConsiderations.html

For graphic and audio-intensive apps, it's probably better to download the app all in one go, but if the cell phone data plan is taken into consideration and caching is used, anything is possible!

iOS version 5 or above is required, so if the device is on iOS version 3 or 4, there will be no audio. Also, if you are on a cellphone data connection, the audio must be user-activated.

Prepare World Trivia Champion!

This is a fun one!  World Trivia Champion Lite is on the iTunes App Store for FREE!


Basically it's a slick trivia game interface, but it has some modern advancements.  There is live chat, a few leaderboards, plus challenging and fun trivia!  Always something new to learn about, even if I don't know the answer.

I upgraded my copy in the Options menu for more themes and in-game access to add my own trivia!  I know some interesting trivia about a few topics...

Best part: now I can challenge my friends and family wherever they are in the world!  Now let's see if I can hit another 10 question hot streak...

Best iPhone and iPad Apps and Games for 2012

Here are my picks for best iPhone and iPad apps and games for 2012!

Games:
Super Blue Fugu (all iOS devices)
Now you can play Blue Fugu for free!  Can you find Red Fugu?  High Scores are ranked on the Game Center app.  I can see how I compare to other players.  It's a fun one!

Apps:
Talkspot Connect (all iOS devices)
If you're new to blogging, or would like a more personal experience, Talkspot is great!  I actually signed up for their service from the app!  The live blogging is #1 on Talkspot Connect, since I can post directly from the app with Rich Text Formatting.  Best blogging app for 2012 with charts of visitors and lots of other features!

Utilities:
Aquarium Screensaver Pro (iPod/iPhone) 
Aquarium Screensaver HD (iPad)
These are great looking screensavers.  I'm looking forward to updates!  It's like a free subscription to new screensavers!  3D fish would be a nice update.

Ultimate Screensaver Collection (iPod/iPhone)
Ultimate Screensaver Collection HD (iPad)
Found out about this one soon after Aquarium, but I got it since it includes free updates.  I would like more artistic screensavers, but my friends are looking forward to something like a virtual picture frame.  I like the Starfield screensaver!  If you can't find where to change the screensaver, tap your Settings icon for Ultimate Screensaver settings.
