Glyphboard 2.0, a Web-based app for the iPhone by Panic's Neven Mrgan, allows the new copy/cut/paste feature to copy some unaccessible Unicode glyphs and paste them into e-mails, tweets (twitter short messages) etc.

Glyphboard uses Mobile Safari's support of HTML5 offline storage and enables the application to work even if the iPhone is not connected to a network. Flickr's smartphone-optimized mobile site, m. flickr. com, has added a "Photos taken nearby" feature. iPhones running 3.0, or phones based on Google's Android, asks the use of current location and displays photos taken in an unspecified "nearby" radius.

This feature uses the JavaScript Geolocation API, which was originally developed by Google, and is a draft specification from the W3C.

The latest version of Mobile Safari uses the API to tie to CoreLocation.

The Web application does not require downloading the iPhone SDK, paying $99 and be at the mercy of App Store reviewers and these are just the examples of two applications for the iPhone and iPod touch under taken with clever programming and using a Web server.
