App Of The Week! Party Edition!

Just in time for the Saturday night, we have our App of the week. Were you guys thinking that this weekend was the perfect weekend for doing an Hour of Power? Yeah?

Excellent.

For those who are unsure of what an Hour of Power (Power Hour) is, excellent. It’s one shot of beer every minute for an hour and it looks like you’ve just found your Saturday evening activity. (Or Sunday morning – look at you!)

You’ll need Ali Spagnola’s Power Album: Party Hour Playlist Maker. It uses your own music, cutting the songs down to 1 minute each and giving you the option to add sound effects for when you have to drink.

It will also connect you to others doing exactly the same thing as you are (for Cyber Power Hour High Five’s obviously), tweet out your power hour party photos, and give you access to Ali Spagnola’s own personal power hour mix.

It’s $1.99 from the App store. Worth it. Happy weekend!

Special iPad Apple Event announced! Details here!

According to those master secret finder-outers Re/Code new Apple event is coming, this time focusing on the iPad. On Thursday October 17th, Tim Cook will suit up and get ready to (allegedly) announce updated iPads, as well as the likelihood of new Retina iMacs and the official public release of OS X Yosemite.

The event will be held at Apple’s Town Hall Auditorium.

The updated iPad Air and iPad Retina Mini are both said to come with better A8 processors (the same as in the iPhone 6), an upgraded camera, and Touch ID. There is talk that the iPad Air will also be available in the Gold color we’re familiar with from the recent iPhone incarnations.

And, finally, while their on their ‘big things’ roll, there are rumors that Apple will also announce a new 12.9-inch iPad, expected to launch the 2nd quarter in 2015.

Exciting!
