    App Update - Momento

    One of my favorite apps has just been updated to the latest version, 1.0.1. 

    Included in this update are several new features, including the time of Flickr photos being taken rather than being uploaded, and several minor changes, as well as the usual bug fixes that all apps have.

    Make sure to check out my previous review of Momento here.

    Full list of new features in 1.0.1 include:

    - Regional time formats are now supported.
    - Flickr now imports photos using the date the photo was taken instead of uploaded.
    - Fixed an issue where some Facebook status updates were not downloaded.
    - Fixed a display issue with Moment editor date & time picker.
    - Fixed an issue where deleting an "edit draft" affects saved photos.
    - Fixed an issue that caused a crash on iPhone OS 3.0.
    - Fixed an issue where some days appeared empty/blank.
    - Fixed a crash that sometimes occurred when entering a new location.
    - Increased speed of saving and deleting Moments.
    - Updated calendar and improved loading time.

    Review: Reeder

    RSS isn't dead, and the plethora of RSS apps in the App Store is a hint, especially with Google Reader. However, if you're looking for one of the best ones around, look no more than Reeder by Silvio Rizzi.
