Apple’s Web Apps Portal

• Apple launch­es a Web apps por­tal
  Now, how about a SDK for native iPhone apps?

Still no word on when or if Apple will offi­cial­ly allow 3rd-par­ty apps — but some of these are real­ly cool, so long as you’ve got wi-fi or AT&T EDGE. Here are my new favorites:

• Weather.com // Way bet­ter than their old mobile site, with fore­casts, and maps.
• Fan­dan­go // Set your loca­tion, and movie times are not far behind. This is also way bet­ter than their old Mobile site, (as well as Movie­Fone’s).
• Tipr // It takes your check total and a spec­i­fied tip per­cent­age and gen­er­ates a total that is a palin­drome — so you can ensure that you’re not get­ting ripped off.

And, some oldies that haven’t yet made it into the directory:

• Pock­et­Tweets // The iPhone client for Twit­ter.
• Ta-da Lists // The Web’s best todo list app, with a nice iPhone-only skin.
