123D Make is an app that lets you turn 3D models created in any tool but saved as STL or OBJ files into a real-world product made out of flat (2D) material that can be cut and assembled into a 3D model.

Have all the fun of extreme skateboarding without the pain of wipeouts

Extreme Skater may not be the most intense sports game for your iOS device, but with its well-designed interface and easy-to-understand gameplay, it proved to be a fun way to while away the hours.

We like that the game is tilt-controlled, which means it's very responsive and also a little forgiving. Initially, you can swipe up to jump or tap onscreen controls to grab an object. As the game progresses, you'll … Read more

Collage your pictures

Picture Collage Maker Lite for Mac is a free, nicely designed, easy-to-use photo collage maker for creating greetings cards, collages, or scrapbooks for special moments, and it has 150 great templates. Unfortunately, almost all of them are locked, despite the fact that the promotional material talks about more than 100 being available, which is annoying.

Although the design resembles other applications available on the market, such as CollageIt for Mac, Picture Collage Maker doesn't just copy its competitors. At first launch, users will be asked to choose a template from the long list of those available, but this is … Read more
