If you’ve followed along with our IFTTT article last week, you’ve seen how easy it is to set up some simple email notifications for when your favorite blog (Appbite, wink, wink) posts a new article. But what happens if you have more than a few blogs you’re following and they’re all pretty active publishers? WEll, the gist of it is that you’ll see a ton of email coming to your account. That may be fine for some of us who live in our Inbox, but for others, email is counter-productive. But fear not, there’s an easy way to stay up to date with Appbite and other blogs without worrying about email overload. Enter RSS readers.

In short, a RSS reader is a piece of software, desktop, mobile or browser-based, that allows its users to read RSS and atom feeds. Whenever a blog or publication that supports these types of feeds (and they pretty much all do have it) [...]

I often find myself checking various blogs and websites for new articles they may have posted. Manually doing this for every website takes time, not to mention it’s boring as hell. Luckily there are better ways to do this. How about a quick and dirty solution to email you a notification whenever Appbite.com publishes a new article? The same solution can be applied to almost any web blog, so keep on reading…

We’re going to be using a free online tool called IFTTT (pronounced like “gift” without the “g”). IFTTT comes from If This Then That and is a dead-easy tool to create powerful connections between various online services, called channels. These connections are known in the IFTTT community as recipes and they always involve two services (this and that): a trigger (this) and an action (that). Quick annalogies for this [...]

Find a cheap flight or a car to rent, book a room at a hotel or rent a house…and that’s just the beginning. Once you get there, you have to see where to eat, what to visit, what outdoor activities are the most fun and what to do to make the most out of this trip. And a single thing like not being able to communicate to the people around you because of the language barrier can ruin your trip completely. But that doesn’t mean you should give up traveling. Especially when there are so many apps that can make all these problems just magically disappear. And here are just 5 of them.

What do you do first after picking a destination? Look up flights or car rentals, and hotels that are [...]

The Apple AppStore has been around for four years now, and Hollywood for a whole lot more than that, but it’s only been in the last couple of years that box office hits found their way in one for or another on our iPhones and iPads. Apps that aimed to introduce us to the world described in the movie, or games that stranded from the original movie plot.

I’ve quite enjoyed the Cowboys and Aliens game that came out last year, but dreaded the money I spent to watch that movie. I really liked 2012 the movie, but found the game to be too…away from the movie.

This year, so far, only a handful of Hollywood box office hits found their way to our iPhones and iPads. And we want to tell you about the best ones. [...]

It’s time for some latest tips on how to better take advantage of your iPhone and iPad. A lot of the times we were asked how you can send multiple photos from your camera roll via email to friends.
