If you have used one of those avatar creator software kits, you are familiar with how these apps work. Uface is not that different. It comes with an easy to use interface that lets you choose from 330 various males and female items, so you can spend plenty of time getting exactly what you want from your sketched image. The characters have a hand-drawn feel to them, which make them quite unique and fun.

I found the interface to be pretty easy to use and the variety of elements available to be more than enough.  The upload to Facebook/Twitter capability is a big plus as well. So is the ability to edit saved images.

All in all, if you are into social media and want to give your profile a whole new look and feel, Uface is a dynamite app you should try.

Let’s say you want to create a flyer on your iPhone and want to pick up an app that helps you do that. You certainly want to pick an app that gives you options (e.g. templates, design options, …). SocialFlyr has you covered here. It comes with a handful of templates to help you create your own flyer from your images on your iPhone. You can customize text, font, and other aspects of your flyers as well.

The interface is pretty easy to work with. Whether you want to create ads, posters, or cards, the included templates can help you do that fast. You can use your camera to take images for your flyers, but you can always use your existing images on your iPhone as well. Overall, a solid app for anyone looking to create e-flyers.

You get to customize face structure, hair style, lips, beard, and everything in between. You can also move, rotate, and use color tool to customize your avatar further.

Once you have created your avatars, you can attach them to your existing contacts on your iPhone using the built-in contact manager. You can also share your avatars via e-mail. Of course, you can use your avatars on Facebook, Twitter, and more. What I like about Avatar Creator is the fact that it lets you reload avatars for future edits. That certainly comes in handy if you are a perfectionist.

All in all, if you are looking to add more spice to your social media life with avatars, Avataor Creator makes the process easy and fun.

The app is pretty straight forward. It’s integrated with Facebook and gives you access to your friend list on the go. If your friends happen to be running Mobcast on their phones, you’ll get to see them on your map. The app automatically updates your location, so your friends know where to find you on their maps.

What I love about this application is the fact that it facilitates face to face meetings. It’s one thing to connect with people over social networks. It’s a whole other thing to get connected and meet someone in person. With Mobcast you won’t have any excuse.

You’ve got to love the Stealth Mode in this app. That allows you to pick and choose those who you want to see your location. So you can always avoid those annoying acquaintances. Mobcast has a lot of potential and the developers promise to bring the app to other platforms. It would be nice to be able to connect with friends via Mobcast regardless of the platform their cell phones run on. For a free app, Mobcast gives you a whole lot of value.
