Would you, as a consumer, visit a mall that has very limited amounts of tenants who offers the product you need?

Have you ever seen any of this before?

This is called QR Code (QR stands for Quick Response). It's purpose is similar to barcode (Normally seen in almost every items in the stores), which is to store information in a standardized manner, and easy to scan.

This is definitely is a must for layout-OCD users who likes to use full screen apps. One of the thing I dislike about OSX is the apps tends to be cluttered (my personal opinion coming from Windows world). This small utilities will save you a great deal of time resizing windows. Just drag the windows to pre-configured sides and it will resize automatically.

Another simple yet addictive game recommended by my partner.

The game is very simple. The main character is a tiny bird that couldn't fly. It aims to move forward and fly as high and as fast as possible using gravity and terrains. The birs will slowly move along te slope automatically. When the bird flew as the result of its high speed, tap the screen to dlap its wings thus resulting the bird to fell into the ground rapidly. Kinda hard to explain, but you'll get hold of it soon enough once you tried it.
