Dragon Dictation


iPhone users should rejoice as they no longer have to type out messages. Dragon Dictation is a free app made by the same people who brought you Dragon Naturally Speaking, the desktop software. It converts all your voice into text for SMS or e-mail. The new version 1.2.0 adds support for the iPod Touch, enhanced user interface and an end-of-speech detection feature. What's best? It's absolutely free, so there's no reason why you shouldn't have it.




Google Mobile App


Tired of typing what you want to search in Google; well, here's a quicker way to find things on your favourite search engine. The Google Mobile app lets you use the microphone of the iPhone and simply speak into it what you want to search and it will find it. It's pretty accurate as well and you can choose if you want to search the Web, Images, Map, etc.

Dictionary - Word Web

This is a very handy application for students, bloggers or anybody for that matter. It's an easy to use British English dictionary and thesaurus. It includes quite a comprehensive database with over 2,85,000 words, phrases and more. The search feature also includes alphabetical listing, spelling suggestions, fast pattern matching search and customizable search options. Definitely worth checking out.



Nimbuzz





It first created waves in the mobile segment when it was launched as a Java App and now we have it for the iPhone as well. Nimbuzz integrates some of the popularly used Instant Messaging clients and Skype in one handy application. This has now been updated to 1.5.1 and has full support for iPhone 3.0 OS.

It would have been handy to add iTunes links to the apps. The 'Dragon Dictation' app doesn't exist in the iTunes app store! Fail!

What do you mean it doesn't exists. All I did was type "dragon" on the search bar and it was the first search result under the apps category.

That's because you weren't browsing the US App store. I did mention in the begining that its best to go to the US store as you'll be able to see all the Apps.

In addition to these, you should check out "Awesome Emoji" which enables picture-messaging on your iPhone/iPod. Pretty neat stuff. Great picks, by the way.

It would be nice if, after "selling" the app, if one was able to find it in the app store. e.g. Dictionary - Word Web.
