2009 Count Down App Screen Shot

2009 Count Down App Screen Shot

I’m taking a couple of days off pre-Macworld Expo and while chilling down in Florida with my family my wife suggested looking for an iPhone app that played Auld Lang Syne and/or had a New Year’s Eve countdown timer. I find them all rolled into one – for free.

New Year’s Blowout Horn! (iTunes, free) is a fun little iPhone app to help you ring in 2009. It combines a countdown timer (to NYE obviously) and a blow-up noisemaker that you engage by blowing into the iPhone microphone (think Ocarina). It also plays Auld Lange Syne at the stroke of midnight or when you click on the “i” icon.

The perfect combination of silly and free.

    My first comment! HOLLA!
  • Tom
    Still no button for Facebook. There must be a Facebook Connect component for WordPress.
  • Tom
    So if you hit the "Comments" box under the post it barfs and says "Can't be found". That can't be good.
  • Tom
    ok, actually says "Not Found".
  • Tom
    Same for forums, but kind of expected that. Some hooks missing?
  • most of the social links are broken but we're working on that. good idea about the facebook button. will add it
  • chrisbarylick

  • Tom
    But...but...you didn't DO any replies. Are you trying to undermine our nation?
  • chrisbarylick
    You know what's really fun?

    Replies!!!
  • Tom
    So what is the PP going to use for the forums? Will that just be hooked into the current system, or is it getting updated too?
  • Tom
    Heh! See this is the cool part...I'm already logged in to Disqus so I just hit the page and I'm all ready to comment away!
  • Tom
    ...but I'm apparently not up to date on some of the features since I'm not sure what I just did with that link command. =-/
