Cisco Flip Video, which makes video shooting and sharing super easy, launched a new version of the FlipShare Mobile app for the iOS and Android-powered devices. Version 3.0 promises even simpler way to share any mobile video or photos to Facebook, YouTube and Twitter; or directly to friends and family.

Best of all, no Flip video camera is required all you need is a compatible smartphone and you are free to share up to five mobile videos and/or photos at once. Moreover, there are options to post a comment, share, or "favorite" a video with the click of a button, as well as filters for navigating and organizing your video library.

If you, however, have a Flip Video camera, you can also create and manage FlipShare Groups, comment on other Flip clips, access your contact list and view all of the videos shared or received in one convenient place…

If you are a coffee lover like I am, chances are you have one of the new-fangled coffee machines kicking around your home or office. You know what I am talking about.. The Keurig, Nespresso and Tassimo brands are among the best out there, and I am not ashamed to say I am the proud owner of two of the three brands I just mentioned. My very first purchase, the Tassimo, has been a long time favourite for me… and the coffee-loving experience is about to get a little bit better due to a new iPhone app from Tassimo. Let me explain.

The new app (from Kraft) is a free app that allows coffee drinkers to re-order via the convenience of their iPhone. Nice. Simply pop open the app and you can browse beverages by type or brand, manage your customer account, and even set up recurring orders. If you go through a steady amount of T-Discs, the recurring order system ensures you will always have an adequate supply of coffee on-hand for your morning cup.

In the end, if you have a Tassimo and iPhone, the installation of this one is a no-brainer. Its a freebie, and trust me, if you are a coffee lover you’re going to get a kick out of browsing the store for new beverages.

If you are big into Apple, chances are you have not only an iPhone, but a MacBook Pro, MacBook or iMac somewhere around your home or office. These iOS and OS X powered devices are adored by those that use them, and scoffed at by those that do not. If you are an adoring fan, I came across an app that you may be interested in checking out. Called Mactracker, it provides detailed information on every Apple computer ever made.

There is really not much more to it than that. Open up the app, and you will be greeted with an easy to browse directory of desktops, notebooks, displays and more. Heck, even the "Newton" is found in here. Discover the introduction date, discontinuation date, the machine ID, model number, initial price and much more for each and every piece of Apple hardware ever built.

Mactracker is a cool reference tool for any Apple-junkie… and while there are some shortcomings with the app, its still worth a download, especially when you consider the darn thing is free.

I stumbled across a fantastic golf game for iPhone. Called "Fore!", this one is a gem for any golf fanatic. Developed by the folks at Cobra Mobile, the game features 54 holes in 3 locations and the graphics, gameplay are brilliant.

The first thing you will notice is the crisp and vivid imagery used throughout the game. You really get a feel for elevation changes and slopes when looking at the hole layouts. The graphics do indeed make the game a joy to experience.

Playing the game is dead easy. Touch the screen in the area around the ball, drag your finger back, and then swipe it forward to contact the ball. The faster the swipe, the more power you’ll put into the shot. When the ball is in the air, you can maneuver it left, right, forward or back by tilting your device. Shot going a little long? Tilt your iPhone back to apply some stopping power.

Fore! is available in the App Store right now for $2.99, but if you would rather try before you buy there is a lite version available for free. In the lite version you will be able to try out a tutorial, and 3 holes. If you like it, show some love to unlock the full version, and 54 holes of golfing goodness.

SoundHound, which we know as Shazam fierce competitor, updated its mobile apps with improved social sharing features. As a result, users are now able to instantly see and edit their entire Twitter or Facebook share, as well as post the same share comment to e-mail or text message without retyping. This multi-sharing capability enables single-tap posting to Twitter and Facebook, as well as optional auto-share and comment personalization.

In addition, the sound recognition company also unveiled a new feature called "Recommended Songs" for its paid offering SoundHound Infinity. As you can imagine, it recommends top picks for songs you might enjoy based on the artist or song you are checking out. The new feature is now available for download for iOS-powered devices as part of the new SoundHound version 3.6.1, and will most likely hit other platforms in due course.

I am not sure why "Recommended Songs" requires a paid app cause you can get similar functionality from other apps and services. To be fair none of those other services does sound recognition…
