iPhone App Review: 1337pwn
I have a nice free iPhone app for you Xbox players. The app is called 1337pwn. To educate the non-geeks 1337 mean leet or Elite. PWN means to “own” someone or you are domination them. Who said you don’t learn anything at The House of Husar! So next time you are yelling at your kids tell them you are 1337 and you are going to PWN them!
Anyway, 1337pwn lets you view your Xbox friends list on your iPhone. It tells you who is online. It also tells you what they are playing and what part of the game they are in. For example, in the screen shots below you can see that CJWag72 was playing the Too Human demo tonight when I took the screen captures. In some cases it will even tell you what chapter they are playing in the game. You can see how many points your friends have earned in each game, Their gaming icon is displayed as you can see by Skibit’s support for McCain/Palin and his non-support for DRM The last time they were online is shown as well. All the stuff that you would normally see on your friends list on the actual Xbox 360. There is also a button that links out to the Xbox website and lets you send a message to them. Pretty slick all around for a free app.
I have been using the app for about a week now and is does just what it claims. If you have an iPhone and an xBox Live account then this app is one you will want to add to your app list for sure.

Hey Scott, McCain and Palin?
Yes, for several reasons, but the primary one is I do not want socialized medicine. I pay enough in taxes already.
I hear ya on that topic.
