Sleipnir Browser for iPhone and iPad is the Best Free Mobile Safari Alternative
Safari for iOS is undoubtedly the best browser on any mobile platform. Chrome Beta for Android comes close but it’s available to only a small minority of users and it’s still in beta. Due to variations in hardware and software capabilities, it might not be possible for Chrome Beta for Android to give the same experience that Mobile Safari provides. We could be wrong though given that Google knows very well how to make a good browser.
Steve Jobs Presentation Video from 1980 Shows His Forward Thinking On Computers, Hardware and Software

Apple is best known for its secrecy which surrounds its product plans and launches and how there’s a lot of strictness in its offices to ensure that the secrecy remains intact.

Tether HTML5 App Lets You Share Your iPhone’s 3G Internet Connection Without Any Jailbreak or Hack
Apple introduced the personal hotspot capability in iOS 4 for iPhone but due to carrier’s stubborn ness, they don’t allow this due to reasons that would never make sense to us.

Watch Every iPhone Ad Campaign Aired to Date in One Place
One of Apple’s strongest skills, even during its dark nineties, had been their marketing and advertisement. They’ve always spent heavily on both and created ads that were to the point and get that point across to the consumers as well. A large number of anti-Apple consumers actually claim that Apple sells products only because of great marketing and not because they’re worth it – which is obviously a rubbish thing to say.
Instagram 2.1 Released with Lux feature, Updated UI and Sierra Filter
The guys behind Instagram slowly but gradually keep working on their iOS app to add new features and filters every now and then. One of the most significant features that they had recently added was tilt shift effect and how users could easily manipulate it with multi-touch for the desired effect. If done right, it can easily fool users into thinking the image is taken through a pro camera. But now, the team behind Instagram has taken things one step further by introducing a feature already available in rival apps called Lux.

But, no surprises there when you realize that none of them are even close to what Siri offers in terms of intelligence and integration with iOS.
