How can you upload pictures to the net ??? Just tried a couple of sites like imageshack but the choose tab is greyed out, any good free image hosting sites that work with the iPad

 

[Scottland]

I'm not sure if any sites will let you upload from a site due to the (lack of ) iPad file manager. There should be plenty of apps that will let you upload to Imageshack/Picasa/Flickr amongst other sites.

Love the Marvel Comic app, haven't spent any money on any comics yet (doubt I will) but reading the free ones is awesome

Anyone know any chance of a DC app? I want Batman on my iPad!

Just seen a new browser advertised call Life Browser, quite clever seems a bit better at preserving pages and not reloading them if you have too many open. Did crash out tho...

Just got iSequence for iPad, can jot down musical ideas on the move... it's a real joy to use and sounds very good.

Hey

Does anyone know a app that works well at logging and handling expenses? I seen the 'expenses' app which looks great, but it is in dollars and I much prefer GBP

Thanks

Chris

Cool site for a lot of old ebooks is PROJECT GUTENBERG it's got thousands of books all free and legal as most of them are old ones which has something to do with the copyright, they have epubs on there which means they can be dragged in the books section in itunes and transferred over to you iPad simples

 

[DailyGeek]

They are all on iBooks anyway mate

Best apps ive enjoyed so far and highly recommend:

Plants vs Zombies - 5*
I cant put this game down! Lots of stuff to do. A must have.

Flight Control HD - 4.5*
Just like the iPhone version but a lot more chaotic.

Hotel Mogul - 4*
Great little hotel building game. Great for the odd 10 minute game.

Angry Birds HD - 3.5*
I had the iPhone version, was slightly disappointed that the HD app was just the same with larger graphics.

 

[b0rn2sk8]

Broken sword is good, though i was a little disappointed with its iPad implementation.

It is an iPhone app running in X2 with HD slapped on it, it has black boarders all the way round!

Excellent game, but because of the lazy developer 3* only.
