In a rarely-precedented fit of housewifeliness, I hoovered downstairs today.

The hoover* emitted smoke.

Hmm.


In other news, now that I haz a iPhone, what apps do I need? Tell, pray tell.




* actually it's an Electrolux but who cares

iPhone Apps

Instapaper, you set up a little account and then you can save any article (fic as well, although, alas, not ones with warning pages) to your phone to read later. I sprang for the paid version, I use it constantly, but the free one is fine.
Echofon is great for Twitter, to which I'm addicted.
Stanza, for access to free books (out of copyright) and to buy others, although I find ebooks ridiculously pricey. Very readable format.
Weatherbug or Weather Underground is better than the stock weather app.
Wikipedia app is not bad.
Tonepad is adorable.
The Google app is great for voice searches, otherwise don't bother.
Paid app, Hipstamatic is lovely, it takes weathered 70s photos.

I haven't looked up from mine since October!
