As most of us age, the outlook for most is what we have by the time we reach the retirement age. And while some may have savings, making sure that they are sufficient is something that deserves some looking into. But now you don’t have to do all that pencil pushing and computations separately. There is an app for the iPhone made especially for that and it is called the NestEgg Retirement App for iPhones.

As you would guess, this is a retirement calculator that allows consumers to make projections and goals. This has a lot to do with annual savings and expenses, something critical during these hard times. Considering the times, this would be a wise app to have especially if you are reaching your peak years. The app is totally free for download at the iTunes App Store so I would suggest that aging individual grab a copy now!

Depending on how you intend to use it, the iPhone can be a handy recorder now, a job that is normally left to the usual mini tape recorders. But thanks to larger memory storage and innovations to the iPhone, all you need is an app to make your iPhone more than just a phone.

The app is called the HT Professional recorder. It allows iPhone owners to record conversation in a room. This could be handy if you are slow in writing or absorbing the discussion at hand. You can record and then review the discussion later on so that you can be consistent as far as creating reports or referrals. Just make sure you ask permission or do it quietly so as not to create a distraction though.

For students, it can be handy as well for lectures. With the fast pace of learning these days, the need for something reliable to aid in education can also be solicited from the HT Professional Recorder.

The app was developed by Apple Voices LLC and can be purchased from the Apple App Store for only $0.99.

One of the many features of iPhones and the iPod Touch is to accommodate video streams. And today, a church will become the first group to experiment on streaming their services via video. The New Hope church thus becomes the first non-profit group to feature such a service, something that is cheered on by many of New Hope’s church attendees.

“Typically, churches are years behind other organizations when it comes to technology and innovation. We have tried to reverse that trend and pioneer new ways to spread the Gospel using the most current tools available,” explains New Hope’s Technology and Innovations Director, Michael Sharpe. “We don’t mind the long hours and stress that comes with innovating because we know that if we can come up with something useful, it can be used by other churches around the world.”

All of this was made possible with the inclusion of HTTP live streaming in Apple’s iPhone 3.0 software. The streams will be available via their website starting July 4. The live stream requires an iPhone or iPod touch with the 3.0 software update and an active Internet connection.
