Headlines for iPhone: Turn Your Social Streams into Mobile-Friendly Feed

Facebook has its own filtering system that allows you to choose who you want updates from, how often and in what circumstances. But this filtering system seems to break down when used through a phone, which is a big downside for those attached to their iPhones like they are an extension of the body. What good is a filter that doesn't properly allow for mobile integration?

The Best Leather Case For The iPhone 5: Sena's UltraSlim Classic For iPhone 5 Full Review

I first came across the brand Sena on a forum (not unlike the ones on The Verge or Lifehacker asking readers to choose and vote on their favorite cases) - back in those days, Sena was nowhere as popular or as mainstream as they are now. However, just visiting the website alone for the first time perked my interests: they seem to be doing leather cases exclusively. Of course, there were many variations of the type of leather cases they did including snap-ons, silicon-type all around cover and the slip-ons. In this review, we're going to be talking about the slip-ons, the famous UltraSlim Classic for the iPhone 5 (they have other variations of this case such as the UltraSlim Access) since they seem to be the most popular model as well as being, well, the original.

Starting off with the packaging, we're got an incredibly simple boxed case with a clear see through window. On the top of the box we see what Sena is really famous for - "Handcrafted/Italian Leather". Moving to the back of the box, we've got a few more descriptions such as "Handcrafted from the finest quality, full-grain leather". Even before prying into the box, the whole presentation just screams quality.

Weather Wallpaper for Mac

You can get a lot of free wallpapers out there, but they are nothing particularly outstanding. Many of them are pretty boring, or just photos that have been adjusted to fit your Mac screen. Definitely not worth much, and nothing to write home about.

When it comes to more creative and functional wallpapers, you do have options. Weather Wallpaper is one of the best apps I have found for a beautiful background that actually offers you something in addition.

More weather apps we reviewed:

• YoWindow: Fun Real Time Weather App
• Best Weather-Tracker: Review (Windows)
• MenuWeather Mac App, the Ultimate Weather Solution

How To Make A Group On Facebook + What To Do With It

If you are still within Facebook Matrix, you are likely to be wondering what is a group and what is a page. Facebook has kind of turned on their group feature in the last two years. Apparently deciding it wasn't cool anymore, they stopped pushing groups and started pushing pages instead. Which was a shame for those of us who prefer the many features available to a group that aren't compatible with pages. Or just had old groups that were deleted in favor of the new platform.

Thankfully, they haven't axed groups altogether. You can still create a great one, and users are just as likely to join them as they ever would. Perhaps even more so now, as they are more insulated than pages that require nothing more than a like. You can even make your group secret so not even the title of it shows on your profile.
