CES 2012 Flashback: Seth Green's favorite 3 apps
Last year we ran into Seth Green at CES and asked him his favorite 3 apps. As we reported later, Shodogg (an app Green has invested in) is an app for easily sharing videos across devices wirelessly. We're at CES this year and will keep you posted on any cool products we find.
My top 3 apps: Rod Roddenberry
Just a couple of weeks ago we saw the final Space Shuttle launch and all episodes of Star Trek the original series, Next Generation, Voyager and Enterprise become available via streaming on Netflix. Earlier today our daily Mac app was Time, a clock which simulates the LCARS interface on your Mac. Oh, and last week we saw CBS Interactive introduce a PADD Trek database app. Continuing this Star Trek theme, here are Rod Roddenberry's top 3 iOS apps. Rod is the son of Star Trek's creator, Gene Roddenberry. We ran into Rod at Macworld Expo and discovered he's new to the Apple side of the force, so it's cool to hear what apps he uses. The last one, Heytell reminds me of the communicator from Star Trek if you had to account for the delay from messages sent long distances via subspace. And we all know how bad AT&T's coverage is near Rigel IV. Rod's top 3 apps are: iTeleport (iPad) GV Connect Heytell
Top 3 iPhone apps: Gedeon Maheux
This week's top 3 apps features Gedeon Maheux, a designer (and one of the founders) at Iconfactory, the company behind App Store hits like Ramp Champ, Astronaut and Twitterrific among other applications for iOS and your Mac. We asked him his top iPhone apps (aside from those awesome Iconfactory apps) and he told us: PhotoPad - a free photo editor for iPhone and iPad Gowalla - A location-based check in service like FourSquare. Iconfactory did some work for Gowalla and if you compare the design of that app versus FourSquare it shows. Last Temple - a puzzle game
Top 3 iPhone apps: director Axel Braun
This is the latest installment in TUAW's Top 3 Apps; click the link to see other interviews. I ran into Axel in Las Vegas back in January, as CES and the Adult Entertainment Expo overlap. Yes, Axel is an adult video auteur, but that's not all. The son of Lasse Braun, who helped legalize pornography in Europe, Axel has a Ph.D in psychology and is a member of MENSA. He's also a big fan of Apple products and was very excited to show off his white iPhone (this video was recorded in January, remember). He installed the white mod himself, which means he's pretty handy with a screwdriver as well. This video was recorded outside a very loud club (obviously), and the reason Axel forgets Shazam at the end? My iPhone crashed on the first, perfect take. We had to do multiple takes to get his 3 apps recorded, possibly a wider shot-to-screen ratio than some adult videographers are accustomed to. Video is on the next page. Axel's top 3 apps? Words With Friends More Cowbell Shazam

My top 3 apps: Brian Brushwood
Brian Brushwood is a magician (he doesn't pull rabbits out of hats -- he's a "bizarre" magician more likely to pull a card out of his abdomen or eat fire) and host of Scam School and NSFW. We caught up with Brian at CES in January, and he told us his top 3 apps. Brian's apps are: Livestrong Calorie Tracker Drop7 TweetDeck
My top 3 apps: Tom Merritt
Tom Merritt knows his apps. As anchor of Tech News Today for the TWiT network, he sees his fair share of great tech. We caught up with Tom back in January at CES and asked his "top" 3 apps -- they happened to be the ones he uses the most. Apps discussed: Twitter TripIt Fruit Ninja

My top 3 iPhone apps: Angry Mac Bastards [NSFW]
If you've never heard the Angry Mac Bastards podcast you may not be aware (although you may have guessed from the title of their show) that there is some "salty" language, if you will. Who are we kidding? Profanity permeates their show. The swearing is resplendent in this week's installment of "3 apps" -- so brace yourself, this video is well beyond PG-13. Still, the AMB crew of Peter Cohen and John C. Welch (partner Darby Lines was not around) are quite hilarious in this extended remix edition of "My top 3 apps." Yes, technically we asked them their "favorite" 3 apps this time. The rant on cheap, $0.99 apps is worth the wait as they note "premium apps" have a place on the store and on your iPhone. If you are easily offended, next week we'll have a kinder, gentler edition of My top 3 iPhone apps. Until then, swear-laden video is on the next page, plus a list of the apps mentioned with handy iTunes links. We've come in for our share of abuse from the AMB from time to time on their show, but we hope this video shows those Bastards that there are no hard feelings. Well, relatively few hard feelings.
My top 3 iPhone apps: John Gruber
Time for this week's "Three Apps" video! We caught up with the Daring Fireball himself, John Gruber, at Macworld and asked what his favorite or most-used iPhone apps were. As a highly productive and insightful writer, his answers weren't surprising. Apps discussed: Simplenote, Instagram and Boxcar. 3 apps interviews by Kelly Guimont
My top 3 iPhone apps: T-Pain
We're starting a new series at TUAW called "My top 3 iPhone apps" -- and to kick it off, we're starting with rapper T-Pain. We caught up with the Auto-Tune master himself at CES promoting the I Am T-pain microphone, based on the popular iPhone app. He let us know his top three iPhone apps; one of them is the Delta app, because the man is a true jet-setter (and has a crazy travel schedule). Look for more "My top 3 iPhone apps" video segments featuring other personalities and celebrities, each Saturday right here on TUAW.
