Make Your iPad Your Second Screen

image

 

Seems that your iPad can now serve one more function than it did already. It can be your second or third display screen if needed. Joel Evans at The Mobile Gadgeteer got to use and review a new application called Air Display from Avatron Software, so we’ll let him explain his experience and tell how to use the $10 app. Read his impressions HERE.

Available from the iTunes Store.

Fingers on the Pulse

image

Alphonso Labs put up version 1.1 today of the dynamic loading RSS reader, PULSE, for the iPad. It creates a visual mosaic of 20 feeds that can be seen all at once, enabling the reader to jump instantly to what interests most.

JAMM gives iPad owners this heads up because PULSE looks to be filled with promise, but therein lies the rub. It can only accept 20 choices for feeds so far, does not yet support video playback, and has some occasional glitches with Google integration. But if what Pulse does do is any indication of what it will do, then I suspect you will give up your Latte one morning and buy PULSE instead.

It is available from the iTunes Store for $4.99

Read the story of PULSE at the Alphonso Labs Website

Also planned are versions for the iPhone, as well as other platforms.

Quick Look: Atomic Web for iPad…the Browser I Wish Had Been Included

IMG_0235

At 99 cents, this one could be considered as good as included with your iPad, and for many of you, this could be the best 99 cents you ever spend.  Now, I am not hear to tell you about some significant problems with the default Safari web browser on the iPad.  All indications, including my own use, are that it is a fantastic browser, and I cannot really disagree with that opinion.  There is one significant feature missing from Safari, however, tabbed browsing.  This means it is all but impossible to hold several browser windows open at the same time.  For that, you will need Atomic Web for iPad.

So, what does Atomic Web bring to the table?  Obviously, tabbed browsing, as you can see above.  This is absolutely fantastic, and it is a key feature which I have always felt was missing from the Safari browser on iPad.  In addition to the tabs, I found surfing in Atomic Web to be quick and easy.  Load times were extremely fast, and really seemed pretty comparable to Safari.  So, you are getting essentially the same browsing experience, but with the added benefit of tabs, making it quick and easy to switch from one site to another (and back).

IMG_0238

If all this one had to offer was tabbed browsing, then I would be pretty much ready to recommend it, but that is just the beginning of the feature list in Atomic Web.  A tap of the plus sign on the bottom of the screen brings up the sharing menu.  This allows you to bookmark the url, send it as an email, post it to Facebook or Twitter, and plenty more.  For the most part, if there is an easy way to share links, you can do it from here.  That being said, I am sure someone is going to chime in now and say that there is some other site or method they use to share links which is not represented here.  For this reason, it would be nice if this list was customizable so you could add any sharing sites or methods to this list.

IMG_0240

Next, you can check out the cog for all of the advanced settings, and I was really impressed by the level of customization included here.  You can set pretty much everything to meet your needs, including blocking ads (which we at JAMM do not recommend), search engine settings, bookmarks, tab style…and on and on. 

IMG_0241

You also will not want to miss the full screen mode.  This is the only broswer I have used which allows you to expand the view to the full screen and maximize your viewing experience.  You can see what a difference this made on JAMM, allowing you to view an extra five lines of text without scrolling.

Finally, Atomic Web takes full advantage of the multi-touch screen.  Not only can you use the standard pinch to zoom motion, but you also have a full menu of short gestures at your disposal, allowing you to switch tabs, change the font size, navigate to another site, and pretty much control any aspect of the browsing experience using gestures. 

photo (11)

Just be careful with this.  I have been known to drag my fingers on the screen when reading.  If you do this, you may want to turn off short gestures, as it can lead to inadvertent page switching or other actions you did not mean to take.

I have to say that I absolutely love using Atomic Web on my iPad.  It feels an awful lot like Safari…only better.  More like Safari+.  The tabbed browsing, full screen mode, url sharing, short gestures, and other advanced options are simply unparalleled by any other browser available on the iPad today.  The only downside I found was there there is no way to change your default browser to Atomic Web.  This means that anytime you click a link, it will always open into Safari.  Too bad, because I would absolutely switch to Atomic Web as my full time browser if I could designate it as the default browser for opening links. 

Atomic Web is probably the best 99 cents iPad users will spend in the iTunes App Store for iPad.   Still not convinced?  Feel free to check out the Lite version for free.
