With features such as Piles and four walls and a floor to throw your stuff around on, BumpTop’s interface is a versatile workspace to organize your files.

How-To: Use Facebook to Assign Address Book Photos
In theory, the idea of having a photo assigned to each Address Book entry is both smart and simple. Make sure you remember the right face with the right name. It’s incredibly handy if you also have an iPod Touch or iPhone. However, dragging and dropping hundreds (if not thousands) of photos onto names in your Mac Address Book? Tedious and ineffective.
In today’s MacApper How-To, we’re going to show you a little app to bridge the divide between Facebook and your Apple Address Book.
1) Head on over to the Apple.com downloads section, and grab a handy little app called AddressBookSync.
Movie Genie Review: IMDB gets portable
When we reviewed Movie Brain back in January, we praised its effort to create an IMDB-in-your-pocket experience but were more than a little disappointed with the results. Now, months later, Movie Genie has stepped up to the challenge of becoming the de facto mobile movie database that Movie Brain could not. Does Movie Genie deserve a starring role in the AppStore? Or is this just another b-level horror show gone wrong?
5 (Free) iPhone Apps Every Parent Should Have
One of the best things we can do as tech-saavy parents is get our kids acclimated early to the wonders of a digital life. I’m not saying kids can’t be kids, but I think it’s pretty darned cool that my 4 year old is the only kid in her class who knows how to work an iPod Touch or bring up web-based games in Safari. At the end of the day, growing up around technology could really give kids a leg up when they get out into the real world. And so, with that in mind, MacApper is proud to suggest five free apps that every parent should share with their kids.

SOHO Notes Review: Organize Everything!
Anyone whose ever used a computer to take notes knows how frustrating it can be to have hundreds of Word documents or TextEdit files. You want something quick, but with enough flexibility to link in other files like PDFs and websites. Then inevitably you go to look for notes a week later, you can’t remember where you put them on your drive, and so the treasure hunt begins. Well note-takers, the treasure hunt has ended.
Books Review: The Virtual Bookshelf
