iLarious, which calls itself the “new comedy kid on the App Store block,” has launched two iPhone apps – iGgression: The Anger Manager and iNabler. What’s interesting about the company is that it was founded by 3-time Emmy winning producer and writer, Fred Graver, who has worked for Letterman, Jon Stewart, Cheers, In Living Color, Norman Lear, Jim Brooks, the Disney Imagineers, MTV Networks, and was the creator of Best Week Ever on VH1. In that sense, the first two titles are just the beginning for iLarious, as they prepare to release many other titles in the future. In the meantime, let’s quickly go through both apps, shall we.
First comes iGgression: The Anger Manager, which allows your iPhone to express your rage for you. There are dozens of sounds like “slap,” “knockout punch,” “shooting stars,” “whip” and “bear attack” available, and you can either make a sound on a press of a button, or time it and eventually surprise your friends and/or colleagues. The application is touted to “turn your iPhone into a virtual weapon” and it could be yours for $1.99. A free, lite version is also available.
As for iNabler, it’s the equivalent of “an evil magic 8-ball,” offering you 100 reasons to behave badly. Phrases included range from “if you don’t, the terrorists win” to “bad idea. do it anyway!” As expected, you can share all of these on Twitter, Facebook and/or via email. The price is $0.99…

The "convergence" is what he's most excited about, and writing about it is the next logical thing to do. He thinks that using a smartphone is what everyone who cares about their time should do. In addition to his interests in mobile phones, Dusan also loves to experiment with the latest web and mobile 2.0 services. The idea of accessing and managing your information from any device no matter where you are simply amazes him. Whether it's an online to-do list, note taking service or a video sharing social network, he's there to try it out. He admits though, he's still searching for the ultimate web-based organizational tool, which "sings" perfectly with the mobile PIM application. Dusan used to run SymbianWatch.com which later became part of IntoMobile. He lives in Serbia, South-East Europe, from where he edits the site on a daily basis.
