Planetary by Bloom is a pretty cool way to browse your music: Stars represent artists, planets are albums, and moons are songs whose orbital speeds are determined by the lengths of the tracks. All I have to say is my Radiohead System is going to be huge.

The Hasbro My3D looks like something that Fisher Price should have made out of the Viewmaster. Available in black or white, and works with a specific set of 3D games on the iTunes store.

Everyday is an app that enables you through an adjustable grid to take almost the same pic of yourself every day so that you might one day compile an aging timelapse video of yourself á la Noah Kalina.

If you’ve been itching to help ideas happen by funding them, here is something to get behind on Kickstarter.

Lifelike Craig HD is an app that makes craigslist into a newspaper-like classified ads section. ($1.99)

I love my Sonos audio streaming system at home. It’s got me covered for music and internet radio, separately streamed to each area of the house. First came the ZonePlayers which hook up to existing audio systems, then came the standalone S5 players. So far, you can use their controllers, or the free iPhone, iPod touch, and iPad apps (the best one). Now in beta: their controller app for Android.
Welcome to the future. Apple is rumored to be looking into a chip that will link your phone to your bank. I already use the Starbucks app to buy coffee, and I have to say I like the convenience. Soon you will be able to buy almost everything with your phone.

If you were looking forward to Apple reveling about how we will subscribe to content in the future, you’re going to have to wait. The Daily is being delayed a week to address iTunes integration issues with their new subscription platform. For the full story read this piece from the WallStreet Journal.

The Word Lens iPhone and iPod Touch app is a visual translator: live, augmented reality, text translation using the camera on your device. Magical.

Raising the bar. Richard Branson iPad only digital magazine Project came out this week. I like what I see. It’s not a groundbreaking experience, but it’s on its way. Compared to the current staple of digital magazines currently available, this one is a winner. You can shop the content, connect to the web for further reading and just enjoy it. The one interesting “experience” I am getting from this magazine, I feel like its content is only available here? Which makes it seem special.

If you recognize that plug, you know it’s an OBD interface for your car’s engine. What’s that black box, you ask? It’s Innovate Motorsports’ 3831 OT-2 OBD-II Wi-Fi Interface – which transmits engine diagnostics via Wifi to your iPhone/iPod Touch/iPad, displayed on the free LogWorks Mobile App (after the jump). You can even directly wire in other sensors, such as air/fuel ratio or temperature, and yes, you can use it to wirelessly reset those “check engine” warnings.
Calvetica is one of the best looking calendar programs for the iPhone that we’ve seen. It’s minimal, Helvetica-bound, and easy as hell to use. It syncs with your iCal in the background, and supports all of its features simply and elegantly.
Up ’til now, prototype videos of the iPhone-controlled Parrot AR.Drone Quadricopter have been floating around, but it’s now available for purchase. Pretty slick quadricopter design allows for multidirectional movement. While it’s obviously cool that the app for iPhone/iPad/iPod touch serves as a remote control for the drone’s movement, it’s even cooler that it displays a video feed from the front of the vehicle, and even better are the game apps that track scoring in dogfights and other types of augmented-reality battles.
