DESCRIPTION:	This little app provides a way of creating a list of random articles from a selection of interesting websites, e.g. How Stuff Works, Snopes, Wikipedia. The articles are downloaded so they may be viewed offline at a later time (this is for Underground train entertainment). Articles are deletable via the usual "swipe" gesture.

DESCRIPTION:	Although this iPhone application hasn't made it to the app store yet, it may do at some point in the future. I came up with this idea when I was on a cycling holiday on the Grand Union canal. I wanted to be able to take photos and save them with comments so that I remembered how I felt at the time. Also, I wanted to be able to tweet these pictures from the same interface, possibly telling people where I was. Scrappy fulfills these aims and allows multiple scrapbooks too. As this was a personal project, it is at the back of the queue, but some day I'll finish it!
