Crosswords for Your iPhone!
I’m a bit of a crossword puzzle fanatic, but I am so anti-newfangled technology that I greeted this news with mixed emotions. But it’s interesting nonetheless.
According to Publishers Weekly, Simon and Schuster has launched a new app (whatever the hell that is) that lets owners of the iPhone or iPod Touch play crossword puzzles for just a one-time payment of $4.95. Yup, that’s right, no subscription needed, and you get, like, a gazillion crosswords. Actually, I think you get 365 crosswords, which is good enough, since Simon and Schuster says they will update the puzzles regularly and also provide holiday and bonus crosswords.
You can download the feature at the iTunes store. The puzzles have appeared previously in Simon and Schuster-published crossword books and have been edited by John M. Samson, who created the series of Simon & Schuster Mega Crossword Puzzle Books.
Crossword lovers more technologically-savvy than I will be able to choose puzzles by degrees of difficulty, title, or author. The iPhone/iPod “pen” or “pencil” mode (again, I have no clue, I just thought the story was cool) can be used, and players can check their answers.
Yay for digital crosswords! Woot-woot!

Comment away, my little snarkie-pies. But please play nicely. Poopy-pants comments (spam, hate speech) will be flushed down the shitter.

WHAT IS A SNARK?
The Snark is a creature created by Lewis Carroll in his poem "The Hunting of the Snark". To give a proper description of Snarks, one must look no further than Carroll himself, who summed them up in one word: Unimaginable.
But this much we do know: some have feathers, some have whiskers. Snarks sleep a lot, yet they are an ambitious lot -- with very little sense of humor. They love bathing-machines and tend to bring them wherever they go; they are also handy for striking a light. Snarks live on a far-off island, a place filled with chasms and crags, and are constantly on the lookout for Snark-hunters. Their mortal enemies are hope, care, thimbles and forks.
