Apple recently released lists on iTunes of the Top 10 most downloaded paid and free iPhone apps of 2008. Which app was No. 1 is unclear - the list, according to Jennifer Bowcock of Apple, is "not in ranking order on the website." She wouldn't comment further, nor would Apple disclose how many copies of each application were downloaded, so it's hard to glean too much from the lists...
...formerly Allegheny a.k.a. Agony Air? I see the connection: you fly to D.C. on a previously bankrupt airline as you contemplate the bankruptcy of your own company.

...Eighty-year-old Behram Contractor loves the city that his Parsi community has played a vital role in building. "The Taj was built by a Parsi, because the big hotel, the Watson, wouldn't let Indians in," he says. But the city's politicians have lost Contractor's confidence. "Today Mumbai lies shattered because it is ruled by people with no conscience," he says, referring to the blame game currently taking place between the ruling Congress Party and the opposition Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP). On Nov. 28, while Mumbai was still in the grip of terrorism, the BJP released...
