Waste of Time - 'Famous Objects from Classic Movies'

Bored? Facebook not enough to distract you from homework? Well there is a great flash-based game making the rounds on the internet. If you're a movie buff this one is especially for you. It's called Famous Objects from Classic Movies, a silhouette of an object appears on the screen from some great/classic movie and you have x amount of chances to guess what movie it is from. Try it out for yourself, let me know how many you can get in a row before missing one. I got 34 my first time around, but I'm also a movie freak.

Play the game here. [via /film]

MobileNotifier takes iPhone notifications to a new level.

The iOS notification system is not the best around as most know. But for those of us who are jailbroken, Peter Hajas has come up with a replacement called MobileNotifier. It takes some of the elements from Android and the best parts of iOS and combines them to make a neat notification system. It's still in beta so there might be some bugs still, I haven't seen any yet, also curious how it will work out with biteSMS. I have to check it out some more. Try it for yourself though...
You can add the repo: http://phajas.xen.prgmr.com/repo to Cydia then search for MobileNotifier and download it.
Or check out the full article here at LifeHacker which includes a video that shows off the app a little more.
