iPhone Tracker
Awesome and scary at the same time: Everytime you sync your iPhone with your Mac/PC, iTunes will make a backup of your location data. Alasdair Allan (@aallan) and Pete Warden (@petewarden) discovered this and decided to create an open source application called iPhone Tracker that visualises this data.
Got an iPhone? Download the Mac application and try for yourself: LINK

iPhone Game Using Facebook Photos as Powerups
After all the interactive ad campaigns using social profiles, this game called It’s Just A Thought seems pretty fresh!
Converse AR Sampler App
Converse has released an iPhone app that allows users to try on any shoe from the footwear brand’s catalogue simply by pointing an iPhone at their feet. The app uses augmented reality (AR) to place a virtual shoe over the foot, giving users an idea of how those trendy kicks will look, minus piles of shoe boxes, tangled laces and disgruntled store assistants. When they find a style they like, a few clicks will take them through to the store where shoes can be purchased. Unfortunately it’s US App Store only, so I couldn’t test it myself.
Find the App here (US App Store only): CLICK!

Nike+ Facebook Motivation
The Nike+ iPhone app just got a really interesting update which makes it possible for your Facebook friends to cheer you on while running.
Connecting the Nike+ app to your Facebook account will result in an automatic Facebook post reading: “Cheer me on with a comment and I’ll get it on the run.” Every following “Like” or comment will automatically pop-up in your Nike+ app. On completion of the run, the app will update the Facebook thread with your distance and pace, thanking friends for their cheers.
I like this new way of social running a lot! Knowing social support could definitely push my run to the next level.
