Evzdrop update (Free)

Evzdrop   What Is About? So cial networking app Evzdrop lets you get the lowdown on what's happening in a given place by tapping into social network feeds from people who are there.
What’s cool? Checking in to different locations with social networking apps is fun, but Evzdrop takes things a step further to allow users to make updates from those locations that others can see across a number of social networks. That means you can let people know what's going on in a given location by creating a “drop,” or check out what's happening in a place the same way to get an idea of what's going on before you arrive. The app's updates add better interaction with Facebook and allow users to comment on drops from others more easily.
Who’s it for? If you're the kind of social networker who likes to know what's going on in locations, rather than with specific people, check out Evzdrop.
What’s it like? More location-based social networking is available from Foursquare, and Sonar makes finding people you know online in a given (real life) place easy.

AccuWeather update (Free)

AccuWeather What is About? Weather forecast app AccuWeather is packed full of weather information and has received a spiffy new interface design.
What’s cool? You probably already have an idea of what AccuWeather can do – it's a powerful weather app that brings you forecasts from around the world. The app can send you Push notifications and can be geared to give you forecasts for specific activities, which means it can let you know if you should skip that jog or capitalize on a good day for fishing. You can also get hourly forecasts and even check the weather radar in your area. Along with its latest update, AccuWeather has gotten a brand new redesign that's optimized for smartphones and tablets, as well as customizable widgets and more.
