Kiss what’s left of your free time goodbye as Doodle Jump, one of the most popular iPhone games ever, has been updated with multiplayer functionality, allowing you to comepete with other iOS players globally via Game Center over a Wi-Fi connection.

The new multi-player mode pits Game Center friends or auto-matched Game Center foes against one another in a “heated race to the finish line.” The ever-useful power-ups can now only be used by one of the match’s players, making for an ultra-competitive gameplay. And if you lose, there’s always the rematch option, presuming the other player wants to fight you again…

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.
