This week in iPad ep 52

Cold Open
Today on This Week in iPad, we talk killing horses, and onions...

Planet of the Apps

Unpleasant Horse
Jacob's first app this week is Unpleasant Horse, a game where you jump through the clouds, and drag adorable white ponies to a comically gruesome end. The game was the result of a 24 hour hackathon by Pop Cap games, and it's free.

The Onion
Michelle's first app this week is from the fine folks at The Onion and is called The Onion Tablet. It features all the content of the website, and is a great example of how media can be displayed on the iPad.

CNBC Real Time
Jacob's next app is CNBC Real Time. It's a vast improvement over the Stocks app on the iPhone, and while it does have banner ads, it's very well designed, and it's free.

Hitpad
Michelle's next app this week is Hitpad. This app takes content from social media sites and aggregates it for you. It has a great interface and it's free.

News.Me
Michelle's final app this week is News.me. This app takes the links that are being shared on twitter and uses them to find trending stories.

See you next week!
