I have noticed that the application’s ranking in the top 100 entertainment list has, in fact, been changing every 2-3 hours or so.

Only about a week ago, this was not the case. When my application “War: The Soundboard” was on the list, it took around 6 hours for the list to refresh and the rankings to change.

I believe apple has made it so that the App Store updates and refreshes more often.

What could this mean:

1. Apps come out faster after they are accepted
2. Prices change faster after developer changes them
3. Reviews come out quicker
etc.

Has anyone else noticed this?

So, that said, I have submitted an add-on application to “Fart For Free” called “Fart For A Buck.”

“Fart For A Buck” will include 16 more fart sounds that are even more high quality. So not only do you get all 16 of “Fart For Free,” sounds, but you get 16 more great fart sounds.

Here are some screenshots:

Really really cool.

Kind of tells you how much this country enjoys bathroom humor. I mean hey, a fart can easily make me laugh :)

So, if any of you readers have ideas for iPhone apps and would like to see them made, feel free to relay them to me!

I love new ideas for iPhone apps. They keep me active and they keep me thinking. If the idea is possible, I’ll try to make it :)
Please though, try to keep it simple, I am no genius.

GabeJacobsProductions.com

Gabe Jacobs Productions is the name of my company that produces iPhone applications. I figured it was necessary for it to have its own site instead of having it be fused with my blog. These sites will function as separate entities, one as a blog and the other as a place to display my portfolio of iPhone applications.

Check it out.

It gives you over a hundred great riddles, brain teasers and educational problems. I don’t know about you, but I love riddles. I always love when people give me hard riddles to try to figure out.

If your like me, you’ll love this application. Here is a just a sample of the kinds of great puzzles you will get if you buy this app.

I bet you thought there was no way to do it without breaking the bottle…
