quick iPhone app update: night stand

i always find myself waking up in the middle of the night wondering what time it is. sometimes its because im still exhausted and other times its because i feel wide awake. either way, its nice to have a lit up "indiglo" type digital clock around within eyeshot (earshot is a word, idk about eyeshot tho) so i can take a quick glance and then decide either to roll over and pass back out, or get up n start the day. in the past i used my iHome for that, but after a short while it stopped playing music and the thing became a glorified alarm clock and ipod charger. since i moved back from tally i havent had any sort of visible clock in my bedroom at all, leaving me dreary eyed and confused everytime i woke up.

enter: night stand (itunes link). this app does nothing more than display the time in digital format on your iphone, but the key is that it will prevent the phone from going to sleep. combine this with the alarm clock feature on the phone and viola, you have now reached the place where the cell phone and the alarm clock become one. efficient, streamlined, highly functional technology. im about that.

note: turn down the backlight so you dont burn your screen out

BONUS: check the icon. haha so blatant.

smoke weed everyday.
