If you’ve been lamenting the lack of YouTube on your Nintendo 3DS device, the wait is over as the YouTube app is finally available on the 3DS eShop. Ironically though, the video streaming app on the 3DS does not support 3D YouTube clips. The videos are streamed on the top screen and the bottom screen serves as a touchscreen control hub. You can also use the shoulder buttons to navigate, the directional pad to scroll, or the stylus to control everything.

Sickweather app lets you know about nearby illnesses

The new Sickweather app for iOS is the perfect companion for a mysophobe or someone afraid of dirt or contamination. The app lets you know if there are any illnesses in your area or the area you might be traveling to. You just have to choose the conditions or viruses you want to be alerted of when the sickness happened and where. It’s very much like a Waze app for viruses.
