McSweeney’s app for the iPhone
By Paul Biba
Came across this because of a review on Macworld which gives it 4.5 mice out of 5. McSweeney’s is an independent publishing house in San Francisco which publishes the Quarterly (mostly short fiction), the Believer (monthly interviews, reviews, columns and essays), books and DVDs of short films.
The iPhone app consists of the “Internet Tendency” section which pulls content from McSweeney’s Website (which offers daily pieces of short, humorous fiction), while “Small Chair” contains a larger, weekly feature pulled from the McSweeney’s network.
The app costs $6. Anyone use it? Let us know.

Yes, I do. It’s very cool – and attractively formatted. New Yorker magazine – please take note! I’d love to see a similar app from them.
