Reaction is a simple little application that “tests your reflexes.” When you open the application, you will get a splash screen. You will then get a pop-up in which you will need to select Play. Once you have selected play, you will see two faces. A larger mad face and a lower smiley face. The larger mad face will change to a smiley face. When it does change you will need to tap the lower smiley face. You will then get a pop-up saying how many milliseconds it took you tap the lower smiley after the upper one changed. If you tap the lower smiley before the upper one charges, you will get a pop-up saying that you need to wait. There is also a “i” icon in the lower left corner that will give you more info about the application. Honestly, I thought that this application was a joke and something was going to jump out at me! Just when I was like all focused and what not…I was convinced something was going to jump out! Personally I do not find this app to be the most entertaining but, let me know in the comments what you think.

Lightsaber Unleashed, formerly known as 
Facts is a fun little app that give you trivia about certain topics. When you open Facts you will find seven categories; Animals, Bad Predictions, Humans, Misc, Science, Superstition and US States. When you select a category you will be brought to a page with an image and a fact. At the top of the page you will also see two options; Back and Seq+. If you select Seq+ you will also get the options; Seq- and Rand. Seq+ will rotate through the facts in order, Seq- will rotate backwards through the facts and Rand rotate randomly through the facts. The Back option will bring you back to the main list of categories. 
It is nice to see a few familiar apps being released for firmware 2.0. 
So while looking for info on Lights Off I found some other projects by the same developer. One is called MobileNuker. It’s a pretty simple app that allows you to crash a windows machine by entering it’s IP address. Here’s a video of it working:
Scribble is a very simple drawing application…think paint no, think much simpler than paint. When you open the application you will be brought right into the drawing screen. Along the bottom of the screen you will find a few options including the four color options; red, yellow, green and blue. The Promo option will open a web browser with a promo for the app zintin. The Save option will save your creation to your iPhone’s Camera Roll (which is pretty cool!). To start drawing, select a color and then drag your finger on the screen. To erase a drawing, shake your iPhone. Very simple…no bells and whistles with this one. I do think the accelerometer is a 
Ok, I don’t know if this is a boy thing or what but…I know quite a few guys who think this application is really cool! PhoneSaber basically turns your iPhone into a lightsaber. When you open the application, you will get a screen with five colors down the left side (yellow, purple, read, green and blue), an image of the bottom part of a lightsaber and an info button. The info option will give you basic information about the application. To choose the color of your lightsaber, just tap on the color. You will get a nice sound affect as the lightsaber starts up (if that is the correct term!). 
Bubbles is an application that creates bubbles…yes, bubbles. When you open the application you will get a screen with quick instructions, “Drag to create & tap to pop.” That is really all there is to it…drag to create bubbles, tap to pop them. When the bubbles pop, they make a nice little popping noise. The bubbles are affected by the iPhone’s accelerometer though, it would be nice if they reacted a little quicker. Also, the bubbles pop pretty quickly on there own, not leaving much time for them to be popped. I guarantee there are two very different opinions of this application; pointless and life saver. Only a parent will truly understand the full value of this application! Even five minutes of entertainment can be a life saver!! 
The update to version 1.0.2 of 
The developer of tt-clock brings us tt-8ball. This is an 8Ball application (you know, like the classic Magic 8Ball, from back in the day) that will play audio of what the 8Ball is displaying. When you open tt-8ball, you will get an instruction screen. You can then shake or tap the 8Ball to get a saying. It will automatically play audio of the saying that appears. tt-8ball is available through the

Sculptor is a just a fun little drawing application. It opens to a blank screen. You can then run your finger across the screen to draw. What makes this application interesting is that the images look as though they have been sculpted in clay. If you would like to erase what you have drawn, just shake your iPhone. Now all it needs is the ability to save or email the drawing. Sculptor is available through the 
CatchPhrase is a mood tracking application. When you are at work you can mark off the phrases that you catch people saying such as, You’re the best, WooHoo, I hate my job…etc. You are then able to create a graph displaying the general mood based on those phrases. When you open the application, it will open to the main screen. You will see four option in the upper menu bar; Popular, Recent, Alpha and Manual. Below there are the phrases. The Popular option will put the phrases you use most often at the top of the list, Recent will put the phrases you used last at the top of the list, Alpha will put the phrases in Alphabetical order and Manual will put them in the order in which you added them. You have to use the application for a little while before these four option become extremely useful. The application comes with 9 default phrases,
