That new scrubbing bubbles toilet gel stuff? It actually works. Smells kinda weird though. Not a fan of the smell so much, but it *DOES* keep the toilet clean.
iphone apps:
TrailGuru - tried it, did not like it. I tried to use it when I went running. The first time, the timer didn't work at all because after I started it, I missed that it popped up a window asking if it could use my current location. Second time I tried it, I got the timer to work, but it said I went all of .2 miles, when I know I ran 3.1. The third time I tried it, despite waiting for the "can I use your current location" window, something happened to the timer, and it said that I had run for all of 5 seconds. Got rid of it after that.
Chess Puzzles - Just got this one yesterday. Not sure about it just yet. It gives you a chess board, mid-game, tells you it's your move, and you need to figure out how to get checkmate in the number of moves they give you. But the problem is, you have to do it *their* way. In one puzzle, it said checkmate in two moves. Despite seeing a way to get checkmate in one move, it wouldn't allow me to make that move. So you have to move the exact piece to the exact square in the exact order. Sometimes, yeah, there's no other way. But they don't even let you try it. If you try to move the wrong piece or to the wrong square, it doesn't move it and tells you to try again. It would be far more educational if they let you make the mistake and it only tells you you failed once you've exceeded the maximum number of moves.
To Do's - There are many to do lists that are simply called To Do; this is one of them. It's the one with the red icon. I like it. Fairly simple, but allows me to set 3 different priorities as well as re-order the list items. You can also include a note along with the list item.
