One of my current pet-peeves with the iPhone App store is that there really is no efficient way to sort through all the “junk” applications as I search for those great and useful applications. Unlike many others - I’m not a big fan of all the games that keep occupying the bulk of the “popular iPhone app” listings… (ok, I do have a Sudoku game and a couple others).

All that to say, here is a site that is at least trying to weed through all the fluff and talk about the new apps being made available.
